Lesson At No Risk Of Failing
(I’m studying for music tech. Our live sound teacher can be quite unusual in his teaching methods.)
Teacher: “To show you what a proximity effect on a glass surface does to your microphone, I will now present, circus [Teacher]!”
(He proceeds to grab a spinning desk chair, climbs on it, while handling a +€300 microphone, and puts it next to a high placed window while talking in the mic.)
Teacher: “So as you can hear, the sound becomes distorted. Also, do NOT try this at home. Some of my colleagues would kick my ass if they saw me putting such an expensive piece of equipment at risk.”
Me: “Sir, then why are you standing on a SPINNING desk chair?”
Teacher: *climbs down* “Well, you wouldn’t pay this much attention if it wasn’t risky, wouldn’t you?”
(He had a point…)
