SoundField MKV Microphone for Jump Blues Project

The SoundField MKV Microphone System has been used in the recording of the Deacon John’s Jump Blues concert recorded at the Orpheum Theatre in New Orleans. The concert was the culmination of eighteen months work on the Jump Blues Project - an ambitious combination of film, studio CD, HDTV and surround sound production.

Engineers Jake Niceley (co-owner of Seventeen Grand Studios) and David Farrell (Ultrasonic Studios, New Orleans) positioned a few audience microphones to fold into the final surround mix, but in addition, they needed to capture the stage ambience and imaging to deliver a believable final product.

"When Cyril explained his concept for this project and his intended release formats, I knew we had to keep fidelity as high as possible," Niceley explained. "The studio recording was recorded to 24-track and mixed at 24-bit 96k for a possible DVD-A release. Both the studio recording and the live recording were mixed in 5.1 surround and stereo simultaneously."

They could have hung a number of microphones all over the stage, but the SoundField MKV with accompanying SP451 Surround Decoder offered a much more elegant solution. Niceley suspended the microphone directly over centre stage noting that the natural imagery and ambience of the SoundField system was far superior to artificial reverbs and delays. Moreover, all of the channels were perfectly phase coherent - in sharp contrast to the problems associated with spaced microphone configurations. This made downmixing to stereo trouble-free.
