Gary Gottlieb, Ed Cherney, Mark Rubel, Elliot Scheiner, Al Schmitt 

 

"I don't care what they're listening on, I still want to make it sound as good as I can." -Ed Cherney

"It matters to us." -Ed Cherney on audio engineers as the prophets of quality sound.

"The most important thing you can do is walk out into the room." -Ed Cherney on listening to the source.

"To do this for a living you need good mental health." -Ed Cherney on getting your own ego out of the way

"I'm sick of the comparison. Analog's got problems. Digital's got problems. Engineering is about solving problems." - Ed Cherney

"Mono is a good way to check the vocal, to hear if it is getting lost or taking over." - Ed Cherney

 

"If you have the passion to do this, don't give up. Keep trying." -Al Schmitt on trying to get a job in audio

"No one ever buys a record because the snare drum sounds great. They buy a record because the music emotionally moves them." - Al Schmitt

"I never use one echo on a vocal. It's always 2 or 3." - Al Schmitt

 

"I look at the laptop as being the new folk instrument." -Mark Rubel

"What did the ProTools engineer say to the singer? 'That sucked. Come on in.'" -Mark Rubel
