From the Fermosa Tea House|Live From the Formosa Tea House, Session Four Episode
We recordedLive From the Formosa Tea House: Episode 4this afternoon over lunch. At theFormosa Tea House. Live.We recorded in the coveted back room of the Formosa, with a very simple technical setup. We all sat aroundDan James'APEX435 microphone, which ran intoSteven Garrity'sBehringer Eurotrack UB802 mixer. We took the output of the mixer and plugged it into myiMic, which was plugged into a USB port on mylaptop. I did the recording inSound Studio, saved as an AIFF file, then imported the file into iTunes and converted to an MP3 (24 kbps mono, VBR medium quality).This episode runs one and a half hours. It didn't feel"too long"when we were recording it, so we've decided to release it completely unedited to maintain the"three guys having lunch"feel. Itmayfeel too long to listen to.
