– MTSU has one of the largest recording programs in the world with a very vital AES Student Chapter. The school recently installed seven Carl Tatz Design (CTD) PhantomFocus™ monitoring systems, and the lecture gave the students the opportunity to go behind the scenes and learn what made the monitors that they had been mixing and tracking on sound so outstanding –

Nashville, TN: TEC Award-Winning studio designer Carl Tatz and AES President John Krivit participated in an AES Student Chapter event hosted by Middle Tennessee State University's (MTSU) Department of Recording Industry, which offers B.S. in Audio Production and M.F.A in Recording Arts and Technologies programs. Carl Tatz presented a 90-minute graphic-enhanced lecture on near-field monitoring, revealing some of the behind-the-scenes protocols of his acclaimed PhantomFocus™ System to the students and faculty audience. Tatz explains, “It was really interesting to be able to present a lecture to an audience, all of whom were familiar with working on the university's seven new PhantomFocus Systems. Plus I’m always able to give them some useful techniques that they can take with them to use in their home studios.” AES President John Krivit spoke to MTSU students about professional opportunities in the audio industry and strategies for matriculating into 21st Century jobs. As he does with his “Hey Audio Student” Facebook group, John chronicled the events and opportunities that are made available to Student Members of the Audio Engineering Society.

All speakers interact with the room they’re in, and the PhantomFocus System allows any monitors to perform at maximum accuracy - in any room - with a full 20Hz-to-20KHz frequency response and pinpoint imaging in what some owners have described as a “holographic sweet spot.” It is a new level of sonic accuracy that engenders easier, better and faster mixing that translates well in any environment. There are approximately fifty steps in the proprietary PhantomFocus System implementation protocol, including phase alignment, system damping, speaker decoupling and isolation mounting, careful assessment of engineer/speaker placement relative to primary axial room modes, proprietary laser-calibrated speaker distancing and angle alignments, digitally-controlled crossover points and slopes for pass filtering, and, proprietary, multiband parametric equalization. Hardware solutions can include monitor stands, concrete, Sorbothane™ and other isolation and damping materials, custom floating plenum mounts, subwoofer systems and custom digital processors. The PhantomFocus System evaluation and implementation is a full two-day process and can be applied to near-fields, mid-fields, and large soffit mounted monitors, regardless of manufacturer. Carl Tatz Design installs the PhantomFocus System in existing control rooms and in all studios that are designed and built from the ground up by CTD. The result is like the aural equivalent of HD TV. Once you experience a PhantomFocus System, you can’t go back.   About the Carl Tatz Signature Series™ by Auralex® The Carl Tatz Signature Series™ by Auralex® family of control room acoustic modules (now featured in a dedicated section on the Auralex website), emulates the look and acoustics of Carl Tatz's custom designs at a fraction of the cost.
