Short Video of Wied Hall

When my assistant Stephen Orsak and I recorded Wied Hall earlier this year for the current project that I'm working on (Larry Seyer Acoustic Spaces)  I took some video footage of the Hall with my <a href="http://bssc.sel.sony.com/BroadcastandBusiness/DisplayModel?id=71949">Sony PD-170 Video Camera</a>..

After months of sitting on a hard drive in my storage cabinet, I loaded the Wied Hall data onto my "Acoustic Spaces" computer today.  

When I opened the project I found the video footage that I had totally forgotten about...   Not too much video, but enough to get an idea of what the Hall looked like on the day that we recorded it...  

So I decided it might be nice to put together a short video of what I shot that day...    It's very short... only 1 minute video with a short piece of music that I wrote playing underneath the pictures of the Hall... nothing earth shattering here folks.  But some of you might find this interesting...

Here is the video:

That's Stephen in the pix wrapping cords and stuff...

BTW, here is what that Hall sounds like:

Some people have asked me what this is... they don't understand what this is all about...  

So I'll try to explain it here.

I have the technology to 'capture' the sound of a room/hall/space.     The data that I 'capture' at these locations can be processed in a way that can be 'read' by another program called <a href="http://www.tascam.com/Products/GigaPulse.html">GigaPulse</a>.

With the data from the rooms/halls that I am capturing along with <a href="http://www.tascam.com">TASCAM's GigaPulse</a>, it is possible to make any musical instrument sound as if that instrument was 'played' in that room/hall.

When you listen to the demos, you hear a musical instrument unprocessed... in other words, you are hearing it just as it was recorded... in a small dry dead room/studio.

But right after that, you hear that EXACT SAME INSTRUMENT run through <a href="http://www.tascam.com/Products/GigaPulse.html">GigaPulse</a>  using one of the rooms/halls that I captured.

One can only imagine what this technology is going to do for recorded music...  

Using this technology musicians will now be able to 'place' their instrument in any room/hall/space that they choose.

In addition, the technology allows for the musician to choose WHERE his/her instrument will be located in that room...

Very cool stuff!

Enjoy!
