MixTrips | What It Is Introducing a new blog written by Mix magazine editor Tom Kenny: "I've been at Mix since 1988, and I've seen a lot in this world of professional audio. I've met some of the most intelligent, interesting, creative and technical people, and I've walked into many of the most amazing production facilities and recording studios on the planet. I had no idea when I graduated with a master's in journalism that I would spend more than half my life writing about workstations and post-production sound, NFL Films and Sony Playstation Studios, Martina McBride on tour and the great Al Schmitt in the studio. I almost took a job with Sunset magazine, then with a PR firm specializing in politics I didn't necessarily agree with. I'm sure glad I went with Mix." | | Mix Nashville: Where Studio Meets Stage August 29, 2015 at Clair Global, Nashville, and The Blackbird Academy Mix magazine is coming back to Music City for a one-of-a-kind, all-day professional audio event that puts the spotlight on the country's most vibrant recording market.
