Electrically, and acoustically the world is a very noisy place. Whether you record musical instruments, the human voice or other forms of art and communication, noise can be a real problem. The quality of portable recorders and the availability of very high quality microphones only highlight the problem.
Recently, a listener asked me about quiet PC’s. I started thinking about not just PC’s, but different models of Macs as well. Add in ambient factors such as sound absorption, reflections, studio size (even the neighbors lawn mower), microphone type and a myriad of others. They all add to the bottom line of noise problems and the dreaded process of editing out “distractions”.
