With this in mind, Audient has also entered the technical blogosphere. Audient’s newest team member, Tom Waterman explains, “We want to connect with our audience. It’s all about sharing tips on studio techniques and our passion for technology – not only with Audient users, but everybody who has an interest in music recording.’

Promising to engage and amuse, Audient’s blog entries have already picked the brains of recording specialist Russ Russell of Parlour Sound, and asked whether mixing ‘blind’ will get significantly different results from those who rely on the visual output of computer software.
