Critic Reviews

Acoustic Sciences Corporation Studio Traps | Stereophile.com

stereophile.com

The Acoustic Sciences Corporation's Studio Traps deliver impressive acoustic treatment, effectively balancing sound clarity and warmth. While the initial setup may feel overwhelming and can lead to a "dead" sound if overdone, the review reveals that with careful positioning, these traps shine—eliminating bass boom and enhancing detail across the frequency spectrum. Users can expect a smooth, natural sound that brings recordings to life. However, those seeking a quick fix might find the process tedious and results subjective. Overall, they are a valuable addition for serious audiophiles willing to invest time and effort into their room's acoustics.

Quick Sound Field's Studio Traps deliver impressive acoustic control with their portability and versatility, making them a practical choice for musicians on the go. They effectively manage room reflections and enhance sound quality, providing a balanced frequency response that benefits various recording situations. However, their high price and limited maximum separation compared to traditional acoustic screens may deter budget-conscious users. For those regularly tackling live recording challenges, these traps offer a valuable solution that can transform any space into a more controlled acoustic environment.

When Jennifer Lopez decided to move on from Dancing (Janet Jackson) & Acting to become a World Famous SINGER she demanded the most sought after Engineer in the Business to Deliver her Sound: Maestro Bruce Swedien (Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson, Paul McCartney, Barbra Streisand, Nat King Cole, Count Bassie, Duke Ellington)

This is the Main ACOUSTIC SYSTEM used on all of Bruce Swedien's work with Jennifer Lopez

Bruce Swedien was Head Engineer on several of her Landmark Albums including: "This Is Me...Then" (Jenny from The Block etc) "Rebirth" "Como Ama una Mujer" her Spanish Language Album "Brave" (Bruce Swedien Mixing only)

The majority of This Is Me... Then was recorded over two weeks.[15] Lopez was drawn to the "contagious" melodies of Michael Jackson's album Off the Wall (1979), which led her to summon the record's mixer and engineer, Bruce Swedien, to work on This Is Me... Then. Lopez felt that Jackson's "clear and spacious" records made her feel a "certain way". She said, "It has such a beautiful quality on it, and every time I looked at a record [I liked], it would be engineered and mixed by Bruce Swedien. I was like, 'Who is this guy? I want this guy.' So I tracked him down and he was like, 'I want to do something with her. I know exactly what she needs. I'm coming in.' And it made a huge difference." - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/This_Is_Me..._Then
