TALKIES REQUIRE TRICK USE OF MIKE “gound Mixer” in Studio Must Be Something of an Artist. BY MARTIN CODEL. Trick uses of the microphone are often necessary in broadcasting, as in! making sound motion pictures. Du: attention must also be paid to_ihe whims and moods of the artists. Thus the “sound mixer” in either a radio or 2 “talkie” studio must be something of an artist himself to get desired effects. Microphones _tled to helmets or strapped eround the breast are used in broadcasting from airplanes. A derby placed over the “mike” or a piece of sackcloth may give the “far-away” ef- fect usually obtained by muffling wind instruments. A chorus or quartet sing- ing with an orchestra must be seated somewhat below the orchestra, or m. even have to kneel, in order that the sound waves from the instruments may reach the microphone without distor- tions from the voices. Acoustical engineering has evolved to a fine art. It is necessary for the en- gineer not only to mix the sound effec- tively but to master other studio effects. Certain lighting arrangements have o be made in the broadcasting studio in order to get some artists in proper mood to perform, especially when they are unaccustomed to performing with- out a seen audience. In the old days of the silent moviss, incidentally, atmosphere and mood were attained having an orchestra play while a scene was being shot. Now- adays the orchestral score one hears in the sound films are frequently super- imposed after the scene has been taken. The only faculty to which radio can appeal is man's hearing. In this re- spect the broadcast studio presen's problems differing from the motion picture studio.
