#PreSonuSphere Presenter: Steve Savanyu! September 25,2013

STEVE SAVANYU

Presenting in the Hartley/Vey Studio Theatre on Friday Oct. 25, 1:30 p.m.

The Right Microphone for The Job

Nobody ever has enough microphones. But Audio-Technica guru Steve Savanyu isn't here to sell you more mics. He's here to show you how to intelligently use the ones you already have-which microphones to pick for various live and recording applications, and equally importantly, where to place them. An accomplished presenter and teacher, Steve has over 35 years of professional audio production experience in live sound, contracting, studio, and broadcast applications.

Steve is recognized as an InfoComm Academy adjunct faculty member and teaches audio-production crses at Kent State University in Kent, Ohio. He's also the Director of Educational Services at Audio-Technica, and all-around supreme guy.

Regarding PreSonuSphere, Steve has a lot to say:

PreSonuSphere is a great opportunity to learn and share tips and techniques on how to get the most out of latest digital recording and live sound technology. It is also fun to see the latest and greatest products in action. I have participated since the very first one, both as an attendee and presenter. The hospitality (and the Jambalaya) is worth the price of admission alone.

My favorite fun memory was last year during the Saturday night event when John Mills was doing a live mixing demonstration in the Manship Theater. Rick and other execs were live on stage. There was a POV (point of view) camera facing down on the StudioLive 24.4.2 console projecting the console surface image on two large screens at the stage. This way the audience could see what John was doing with the console. Someone made the comment about John's hands on the console (That was all you could see.) I stood behind John and reached in every so often so there was a third and fourth hand on the screen. The hands would smack each other and poke at each other. The crowd roared and we were laughing out loud.

It is a pleasure to participate in this event and be a part of the family of users. To quote Don Davis (who founded the original Syn Aud Con audio training program) 'I was walking down the street and I had a dollar I met a man who also had a dollar. We exchanged dollars and both walked away with a dollar. Later, I was walking down another street and had an idea. I met a man who also had an idea. We exchanged ideas and both walked away with two ideas.'

PreSonuSphere is a street of ideas! Let's meet and exchange; see you in October!
