Ep 79: Howard Benson says tech can't save bad songs
Notes de l’épisode
With a career spanning nearly 40 years, legendary producer Howard Benson has shaped the sound of everyone from Less Than Jake and P.O.D. to Bon Jovi and Kelly Clarkson. Tune in to hear Howard’s fiercely pragmatic view on the most important part of any production, confessions about the impossibly rare synths he lusts after, and the secret behind monitoring through humble $79 speakers. Along the way, discover his thoughts on AI’s musical future, why demo-itis is every producer’s enemy, and which ultra-luxe item he’d demand for his Forever Studio setup.
Season 7 of the My Forever Studio Podcast is supported by Audient, and the incredible new iD48 audio interface.
