New Scoring Stage Shell and Vocal Studio Design

Loren L. Ryder

Many of the early musical recording techniques and scoring stage designs were natural consequences of early equipment limitations and the early technical approach to the general problem of music recording. Present-day equipment has lifted many of the technical restrictions, thus making desirable a reconsideration of musical recording, especially as related to the musician's problem, his ease of playing, and the acoustics which aid the musicians in playing together for an over-all effect. — This paper points out how past practices have restricted our musicians, and suggests ways of gaining greater freedom and better music to the microphone.
