Episode 55: Hanging With Michael Barkley

My guest for this episode is Michael Barkley.  

Michael is one of Ireland’s finest talents. He's an amazing lead player, soloist, arranger, and educator. And now Michael is making a name for himself in the world of microphone design with his Infinity Ribbon microphones. Microphones built by a trumpet player and designed with a trumpet player's needs, and budgets in mind.  

Check out what Michael has to say about his motivation to build a better microphone, finding solutions to recording problems, how not to fry your ribbon mic with a Harmon mute, his discovery process, the importance of minimizing change, his approach to multi-tracking trumpet parts, gathering resources on recording trumpet, his affinity for bass, developing your listening, and so much more! So pour yourself a big glass, pull up a chair, and let the hang begin!
