The year was 1993. I was 17 years old, and helping my father prepare for a recording we were to do on location of a choir. At the time I recall we had some of the first available low cost large condenser microphones available, and one of these had a pattern switch that allowed cardioid, figure 8 and omni directional recording. In my own work recording bands, I’d only ever used the cardioid setting, and didn’t give a thought to the ‘figure 8’ option.
A relentless quest to create the purest audio experience to date. The Air D1 showcases Airsound with analogue transconductance amplifiers that virtually eliminate harmonic distortions by using feedback from the drivers’ motions.
In November 2018, Ted Fletcher and I gave a talk at the Institute of Acoustics. The subject was achieving higher fidelity audio through the use of Transconductance (current mode) amplifiers. I wrote this paper which is a technical approach to showing how the technology can be used to massively reduce levels of acoustic distortion produced by a loudspeaker / amplifier system.
The Dock E30 is a truly remarkable audio platform. The original concept was to produce a loudspeaker that has a ‘full’ response but is as small and compact as possible. The starting point was the driver and passive radiator design, as our target acoustic was not a ‘hyped’ sound, rather one that was naturally full. Continue reading “Orbitsound Dock E30”
The Orbitsound P70w is a unique product that features Airsound in an all-in-one platform with multiple orientations. The configuration was inspired relatively late during its development and from an unlikely source… Continue reading “Orbitsound P70w”
Orbitsound had been the business of making soundbars with Airsound for 5 years before work on the A70 started. This was more than an update – it was a ground-up design featuring totally new acoustics, speakers, a larger team and with higher aspirations. Continue reading “Airsound Bar A70”
In my early days, I worked with my father, designing and building professional studio equipment. The JOEMEEK range flourished from the initial success of the SC2 optical compressor. This initially ‘garage born’ device started the brand. Here is a trip down JOEMEEK memory lane: Continue reading “Joemeek Studio Equipment 1995-2003”
