Episode Details

My guest this week is engineer Craig Burbidge, who gained multi-platinum status having worked with hundreds of artists including Barry White, Steve Perry, Natalie Cole, Take 6, Teddy Pendergrass, Paul Jackson Jr., Vanessa Williams, Brian McKnight, Kirk Franklin and many more. Craig was also one of the first American engineers to take his talents to Asia, working with Taiwanese superstar David Tao. He was also one of the first to utilize remote audio connections for mixing his Asian clients while still in Los Angeles. During the interview we spoke about mixing while recording, getting engineering work through session musicians, owning the Air L.A. studio complex, working with Chinese clients, and much more.On the intro I’ll take a look at how CDs seem to be making a comeback, and why cheap USB hubs can be detrimental to your computer setup.
