GET TOGETHER - The Rock'n Roll Hurricane is back in Frankfurt

The music is playing in Frankfurt! Bands, artists, music producers, sound engineers as well as wire-pullers from the most diverse genres of the music industry have already met twice this year for a casual GET TOGETHER at Studios 301 Frankfurt. The starting signal for this special kind of event was given at the exhibition prolight & sound. Numerous exhibitors, visitors and members of the Association of German Sound Engineers (VDT) took the opportunity to end a long day at the fair in a relaxed atmosphere. No one had expected that well over 100 guests would come.
Apparently there is a great need to meet "offline" again and have a good time together. This gave Studios 301 manager Ulli Schiller the idea to hold the GET TOGETHER regularly with the aim of bringing together the various professional groups in the music industry.
So in July, after the GET TOGETHER - SPRING, the GET TOGETHER - SUMMER followed, which had considerably more guests than the first event. The Studio 301 team was actively supported by Uwe Lerch (The Blog Of Rock), Wolfgang Lücke (Limelight Gallery; former CEO of Musikmesse Frankfurt), Jana Simon (SLOVEJG Metal Rock Magazin), Susi Schiller (GET IN TOUCH), Holger Schader (Solotech), Frank Simon (Solotech) and Lena Knecht (Solotech).

The third GET TOGETHER will take place in December under the motto "Winter Grooves". We are looking forward to it!

The electron tube in the recording studio

Regardless of whether it is spoken factually, sung enthusiastically or performed in a virtuoso manner on instruments, every reproduction of sound events requires a recording or its preservation beforehand. For a long time, it was considered a dream of mankind to capture acoustic perceptions to be able to play them back at any time and any location. It was not until the late 19th century that the foundations were laid by Thomas Edison's phonograph and Alexander Graham Bell's telephone. The first working magnetic recording device called the "Telegraphone" was introduced by Valdemar Poulsen, a Danish inventor, during the 1900 World's Fair in Paris. As a result of Alexander Graham Bell's long-distance strategy, the tube amplifier was invented in the early 20th century for the rapidly growing telephone industry. Not only telephone technology but also radio ensured constant developments and innovations in the field of electroacoustics. With the components microphone, tape machine, mixer, tube amplifier and loudspeaker, the establishment of the analog recording studio (broadcasting) in Germany in the famous VOX building on Potsdamer Platz in Berlin was born as early as 1923. At the beginning of this era, the transistor had not yet been developed and so numerous electron tubes were used in the electro-acoustic equipment of the recording studio technology of the time.
