AGENDA & PRESENTATION:
Hey Hey!
I'm excited to announce this Tuesday's meeting at Metro Mobile Recording.
Timothy Powell and Metro Mobile have been 'rolling' since 1985 and are THE ones
to call for serious location recording. In fact they're the only professional
recording trucks in the entire Great Lakes area.
Ever since joining EARS I've hoped to see a meeting here and, with the recent
demise of their "M-40 Urban Assault Audio Vehicle" and consequent building of
it's replacement nearly finished, this is a great time to take a look at what
they do, how they do it, and how the lessons they've learned over the years
contributed to the design of the new truck which will, like it's predecessor,
"go where larger trucks can't". Their big truck, the M-48, will also be onsite
for us to take a look at.
Timothy Powell has a serious love of our craft, from getting things done right
on site to collecting the best of the best mics and knowing how to use them to
garner 24 Grammy nominations and 4 Platinum and 4 Gold RIAA-certified albums.
He's also been a great and involved supporter of EARS from the beginning,
including publishing the Eardrum from 1985 to 1998.

I'll look forward to seeing you there on Tuesday night. As usual, Members and
Non-Members are welcome, so bring a friend!
