Recording Unhinged Coloring Book - For Those Who Color Outside the Lines

Shooting pianos. Miking chickens. Recording bass guitar on a submarine. These are some of the unusual recording techniques examined in the book Recording Unhinged: Creative and Unconventional Music Recording Techniques.

Because we all like to draw outside the lines this collection of Sylvia Massy's original illustrations from the book is a great way to whet your appetite for some real adventurous recording. Add your own color and excite your imagination.

Since we're all about getting a little unhinged you might want to make it fun. Try coloring with strange materials while you're at it. Toe-nail polish and highlighter pens. Lipstick and blush. Spilled coffee. You figure it out.

And one last tip: you'll find a few special illustrations here that aren't in Recording Unhinged: Creative and Unconventional Music Recording Techniques including one that if you fold it a certain way (look for the arrows) Neil Peart will turn into the drummer from the Stray Cats Slim Jim Phantom.
