THE OFFICIAL EARS WEBSITE!
EARS: The Engineering And Recording Society of Chicago, is an independent (not-for-profit) group dedicated to the advancement of excellence in audio production. EARS welcomes all recording engineers, producers, live sound mixers, studio owners, as well as musicians, students, enthusiasts, and pro-audio representatives alike. Our meetings usually take place on the last Tuesday of every month. Meetings are held at a a variety of recording studios, radio stations, live sound venues, and manufacturers' facilities. The subject matter ranges from gear shoot-outs to discussions of recording techniques and myriad issues encountered today in an ever-evolving and increasingly complex recording industry.
Many years ago, a handful of Chicago engineers ran into each other at an AES show in New York and realized that they met more away from town than they did back home and maybe they ought to do something about it. The concept of EARS was born: a monthly social get-together where friends and competitors would meet in an atmosphere of fun and friendship to talk about gear, business, and music. So it was and so it's been these past 27 years. We encourage all participants to attend the meetings with an inquisitive attitude and a thirst for adventure in audio! EARS meetings are usually held on the last Tuesday of every month so mark your calendar and join us!

AN EVENING WITH BILL LUDWIG
Recording the new WFLIII snare drum
HOSTED BY JIM TULLIO
TUESDAY, JULY 29TH 7:30pm
BUTCHER BOY STUDIOS
1224 W. Washington Street
EVANSTON, IL
60202
Our next EARS meeting will be held at Butcher Boy Studio on Evanston, owned by Grammy-award-winning and platinum producer/engineer Jim "Tools" Tullio. The facility is perfect for showcasing WF LudwigIII snares and such. Tullio's microphone array and studio setting (complete with a vintage Neve 8058 console) is well-suited for this kind of presentation. Bill Ludwig, a member of the legendary Ludwig Family, will be acting as presenter and will answer questions. Our feautred (and opinionated) drummers are Larry Beers and former EARS president David Moss.
This is a free event open to EARS members and those who would like to join but due to limited space preference will be given to members. Snacks and beverages will be supplied courtesy of EARS' sponsors.
