Throughout the year, he also records the Los Angeles Philharmonic, LA Opera, Los Angeles Master Chorale, and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir for commercial and broadcast release.
Fred is also one of the first live mixers to work in immersive audio using the L-Acoustics L-ISA system on high profile events for Deadmau5 and the LA Phil 100th anniversary tour show in Seoul, S. Korea.
During the interview we spoke about mixing in an immersive environment, what it’s like to mix at the Hollywood Bowl, what happens if a visiting mixer gets too loud, the punishing schedule during the summer, and much more.
