Chris Shaw (recording engineer) dating history

Details

I would rather work with the world's greatest drummer, in the world's worst studio, than the world's worst drummer in the world's greatest studio. It all comes down to the player. People always ask, "How do you get a really great drum sound?" The secret is a really great drummer! Then, after that, it's the drum set, then it's the room and then it's the microphones, console — the last person in the chain is me. Above and beyond the drummer, it's the song and capturing what that song is about. The biggest mistake you can make is not paying attention to what the song is doing. If you're married to your drum sound, but it's not appropriate for the song, then it's the world's worst drum sound.
