Superb new download from the Witmer Trio;

We believe a high-resolution recording starts with craftsmanship. Creating this recording was all about carefully adapting the equipment to the hall, the musicians and the compositions.

The close collaboration between artists, sound engineer and producer has culminated in a download that pays homage to the artistry of high resolution recordings.
"I love the sound of MCO’s Studio 2 and the sound that recording engineer Frans De Rond creates in that hall. So when arranging the songs for this album, I tried to hear in my mind not only the sound of the trio but also how that sound would interact with the hall. It was initially a new way of thinking, but actually surprisingly easy once I got used to the idea. After all, I know how Maarten will sound when playing a certain groove, and how that will blend with Han’s bass line. Now all I had to do was to envision that sound in the hall of Studio 2.
I decided to add strings on a number of songs. I first thought of a small string orchestra but after a bit of experimentation I opted for just two violin parts, in order to keep the sound as intimate as possible as well as being able to clearly position the instruments in the stereo field." Cajan Witmer

When creating the sound stage, Frans spent a great deal of time getting the balance of the Witmer Trio as optimal as possible using the ambient microphone stereo pair, before adding the spot microphones.

The benefit of this approach is that you can actually see the trio in front of you between the speakers.

We wanted to create a sound field that was intimate but also had enough depth to reflect a visual representation of the instruments.
