The term “legend” gets thrown all the time in audio production circles, but my guest this episode really deserves it.

I’m sure you already know this but Ken Scott has worked with the Beatles, David Bowie, Elton John and Supertramp amongst so many others, so I was delighted when he agreed to join me for this episode !

There were so many things we could have talked about it was hard to know where to start, but here are just a few of the topics we covered:

* Why Abbey Road trained their engineers in mastering before they were ever allowed to engineer a recording session

* The value of mentors - and being thrown in at the deep end

* Mixing in sections (instead of using automation)

* When limited resources are a Good Thing

* Re-mixing Ziggy Stardust in Dolby Atmos (with added drum samples…!)

* …and how the new mix translates to stereo
