  • Please stop talking about Atmos

    Amazing show. Great resource for learning and hearing different techniques. Lij, please: lay off the Atmos content. Your audience has a range of folks, I know. But for us home studio folks, Atmos is impractical (and boring).

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

RSR555 - Matt Boudreau - From Stereo to Atmos: Revolutionizing Audio Mixing
Q: What is the key advice Matt would give to a younger version of himself about archiving and file management?
If it doesn't exist in three places, it doesn't exist. Use the 3-2-1 rule (three copies, two readily accessible, one remote), and plan for disaster to ensure future recall and the ability to revisit past work.
RSR555 - Matt Boudreau - From Stereo to Atmos: Revolutionizing Audio Mixing
Q: How does he balance creativity with client expectations during revisions?
He notes the importance of living with a mix for a couple of days, using client revisions as a way to surface true issues rather than immediate preferences, and sometimes refusing low-effort changes that revert progress.
RSR554 – Ronan Chris Murphy – Modern Songwriting Knight Writing Medieval Melodies in Ancient Italy
Q: How did you balance complex personal moves with keeping creativity flowing?
Ronan explains that he prioritizes environments that energize him, uses time abroad to recharge, and deliberately schedules time for writing in quieter moments, while leveraging collaboration when possible to keep momentum.
RSR552 - Tim Easton - Songwriting, Shortcuts, and the Sound of Real Life
Q: What writing practices does Tim recommend for daily creativity?
Tim advocates writing every day, keeping notes or voice memos, and using prompts or life experiences as fuel, while avoiding over-editing in the moment to preserve spontaneity.
RSR551 - Meghan Gohil - Future-Proof Your Music with Atmos, Hybrid Chains, and Indie Strategy
Q: What makes Atmos a smart move for indie artists now?
Atmos is a way to future‑proof recordings; it's about getting ahead of a shift in listening environments so that mixes are ready for a wide adoption as more households gain Atmos capability.
