The Exotic Sounds Of Arthur Lyman At The Crescendo (1963)
GNP Live recording at the Crescendo, Sunset Strip, Hollywood (the applause was later deleted to preserve the exotic mood). A custom built 16 position three channel mixing console was employed having separate equilization controls for each channel and also switching facilities to change any microphone position to any channel at any moment to achieve various placement effects. Model 251 Telefunkens, U47 Telefunkens and C-37A Sony's microphones were used to record the various musical sounds and echo effects. The master tape was transferred to a variable pitch Scully lathe using a Westrex 3C cutter.
