I'm going to answer these just for fun, since I have spent a lot of time in professional studios, went to college for recording engineering (but had to drop out b/c of $$ and my own band lol), and because I've been both the enemy, ally, and the control freak if you get what I mean...
Before you pose your questions i have some of my own:
Where do you rate eating and sleeping in your life prioritization?
I don't sleep for 4 days at time sometimes when working on music or when I'm having a manic or mixed episode
How well do you tolerate emotionally unstable personalities?
I am an Emotionally unstable personality. Why do you think I'm an Artist and have the superhuman ability to stay up for a week without the use of ampthetamines or caffeine
... Ultra-Rapid Bi-Polar 2 disorder has it's advantages... Many of the worlds great leaders, writers, poets, and musicians have been.... However a lot of them were assinated/ousted (i.e. abe lincoln, napoleon) or comitted suicide/Died in relation to it (Kurt Cobain, Virginia Wolfe, Edgar Allen Poe). But I find it very much of an advantage until you start having anxiety problems during the mixing process. ::shakes head in shame::
Would you resolve yourself to never owning anything which is
not "certified pre-owned"?
Yes. Because Ebay is our friend.
Does sunlight deprivation have any negative impact on your overall
mood?
Only when I wake up at 7pm and think it's 7am.
True or False:
"Even though I know that what the person is telling me is
not based in audio science, I will believe them and obey
because they have been doing it for 57 years"
No. Not unless they're paying me to do it
Multiple Choice (choose up to 2):
If my girlfriend becomes emotionally involved with the
lead singer of the band I'm recording, I would:
a. Take it as a normal part of my profession.
b. Shove a Shure SM57 down his throat
c. Make his tracks sound like crap
d. Dump my girlfriend for the lead singer's girlfriend.
B. and Then D. if she was hot because after I did B. she'd think he was a loser. A. would mean your a doormat and C. would make you look bad.
True or False:
It's OK to pretend that I've used an ICON-D 96 console because
in all likelihood, nobody in the room has either.
A what ? Oh Yeahh ... I think they had one at that.. um place I was at that time in that one place.
How strongly do you agree with this statement:
I really value a clients money. If i have to work from 2:00am to 5:00am so
he can get off-peak rates, we're both sticking it to the man!
Eh.
True of False:
Dynamic range is overrated .... Track slamming is the "Name of the Game"
Depends on your opinion/preferences I guess. I would say False.
Please send your responses and i'll let you know if you qualify to ask
a professional engineer,
