My guest for this episode is Michael Barkley.  

Michael is one of Ireland’s finest talents. He's an amazing lead player, soloist, arranger, and educator. And now Michael is making a name for himself in the world of microphone design with his Infinity Ribbon microphones. Microphones built by a trumpet player and designed with a trumpet player's needs, and budgets in mind.  

Check out what Michael has to say about his motivation to build a better microphone, finding solutions to recording problems, how not to fry your ribbon mic with a Harmon mute, his discovery process, the importance of minimizing change, his approach to multi-tracking trumpet parts, gathering resources on recording trumpet, his affinity for bass, developing your listening, and so much more! So pour yourself a big glass, pull up a chair, and let the hang begin!
