Panel of top engineers to share insights and advice at Summer NAMM

Santa Monica, CA (July 17, 2019)—The Recording Academy Producers & Engineers Wing will host a timely and informative panel at this week’s Summer NAMM Show in Nashville titled “The Road to Great Recordings: Meeting Challenges, Overcoming Obstacles.”

Panelists will include engineer Leslie Richter (Ben Folds, Dierks Bentley, Kings of Leon) and Grammy-winning producer and engineer Dave Way (Christina Aguilera, Fiona Apple, Ziggy Marley). Additional panelists will be announced. The panel is at Summer NAMM on Friday, July 19, 2019, at 1 p.m. (Music City Center, Level 3, Hall C, 153).

Grammy-winning producer, engineer, composer and arranger Shannon Sanders (India.Arie, Jonny Lang, John Legend, Robert Randolph) will serve as moderator.

Balding remarks, “The P&E Wing has made its Summer NAMM panel an annual event. We view it as a great opportunity to share perspectives and knowledge straight from some of the most successful Nashville-based producers and engineers working today. This year’s offering has the subtitle ‘Meeting Challenges, Overcoming Obstacles,’ and attendees will get an informative and entertaining look at the different ways these studio professionals approach problem-solving and new technologies.”

Sanders adds, “This is an opportunity for producers and engineers to ‘talk shop’ and exchange stories, methods and unique practices with each other and with attendees. I find that everyone does things a little bit differently, and the most interesting conversations between producers and engineers are when they can compare approaches and share fresh techniques.

“I am really looking forward to getting deep with these panelists and discussing what works for them in overcoming obstacles on projects, whether it’s budgetary concerns, problems with personnel, things not quite ‘gelling’ in the moment—even though the clock is ticking— and any number of other issues. I have always said that producers and engineers should strive to be excellent problem-solvers, and that’s what this panel is going to explore in detail.”
