  • AL SCHMITT Al Schmitt Is a Renowned Recording and Mix Engineer Whose
    AL SCHMITT Al Schmitt is a renowned recording and mix engineer whose acclaimed music career has spanned more than half a century. During that time Al has been awarded more accolades than any of his contemporaries including holding the record for most Grammy awards for a recording or mix engineer. To date, Al is the recipient of 23 Grammy Awards, including the Grammy Trustees Lifetime Achievement Award in 2006. In 2014, Al received the Honorary Doctorate from Berklee School of Music. Al is a New York native, of whom Barbra Streisand states, "as a fellow Brooklyn-ite, we speak the same language." He has worked on more than 150 gold and platinum albums, and was inducted into the TEC Awards Hall of Fame in 1997 to honor his technical and creative excellence in recording and sound. In the early days of his career, working at RCA, Al engineered albums for such legendary artists as Sam Cooke, Rosemary Clooney and Henry Mancini, featuring the Grammy Award winning title, "Moon River", which also won an Academy Award for Best Song, and for "Breakfast at Tiffany's." During this time he also worked on scoring for multiple motion pictures as well. In the mid 60's, while demand for his engineering services grew, Al also aspired to become an independent producer. In addition to recording all the last records of the legendary Sam Cooke, during this same period, Al also worked with Ann Margaret, Bobby Darin and Eddie Fisher. He also worked with newer, up and coming artists of the time including Jefferson Airplane, Jackson Browne and Neil Young.

  • Un Océano De Diversión Santiago Negro MOANA Otros Títulos: Vaiana
    Un océano de diversión Santiago Negro MOANA Otros títulos: Vaiana. John Musker, Ron Clements, Don Hall, Chris Williams . Estados Unidos, 2016. Disney vuelve a las carteleras, con el toque de magia que caracteriza sus producciones. En la ya legendaria tradición de la productora, nos invita a explorar el Pacífico Sur, el exótico paraje donde tiene lugar esta aventura. Moana contiene todos los ingredientes inconfundibles de Disney y, al mismo tiempo, continúa el camino de modernización de sus propios clichés, adaptados a las sensibilidades del público del siglo veintiuno. Quedan muy atrás las princesas cursis, meros objetos de fantasías románticas para el príncipe azul de turno. Las protagonistas de las últimas producciones de Disney son independientes, luchadoras y, desde luego, no necesitan que las salve el enésimo hortera de brillante armadura. John Musker, Ron Clements, Don Hall y Chris Williams se reparten la responsabilidad de llevar a Moana a buen puerto como directores de una película que sigue el pulso de esa nueva Disney, como decía, pero que, en el fondo, a pesar de los interesantes cambios y las buenas intenciones, tira de fórmula. La compañía vive en el continuado enfrentamiento interno, a la búsqueda de esa nueva identidad, pero aferrados a una forma muy determinada de trabajo. El éxito de la productora se mantiene gracias a que las piezas básicas de sus narraciones son reconocibles por un público que aglutina ya a varias generaciones. El secreto para que Moana funcione es el camuflaje de esos lugares comunes, a base de un apartado técnico de enorme belleza y las transformaciones obligadas por el paso del tiempo.

So if Schmitt says he really likes using a particular microphone for a specific application, you can rest assured there’s solid reasoning behind his decision—and when it comes to recording saxophones, his microphone of choice is the MA-200 Vacuum Tube Condenser Microphone from Mojave Audio. With an unparalleled seventeen Grammy Awards for engineering to his credit, along with two Latin Grammys, Schmitt’s list of hit recordings includes several of the best-known albums of our time, including Henry Mancini’s Hatari, George Benson’s Breezin’, Steely Dan’s Aja, and Natalie Cole’s Unforgettable, to name but a few. With Barbara Streisand’s Love is the Answer and Diana Krall’s Quiet Nights being among his more recent accomplishments, Schmitt’s discography is impressive. Schmitt recently recorded new tracks for the forthcoming album projects of Japanese vocalist Hiromi Kanda as well as Russian vocalist Oleg Frish. Both projects are English language, worldwide releases recorded and engineered at Schmitt’s long-standing studio of choice—Capitol Studios. For the Hiromi Kanda sessions, which Schmitt just finished recording and mixing in Capitol Studios’ A, B, and C suites, he deployed four Mojave Audio MA-200 microphones on four saxophones.
