(assuming you weren’t “born rich”)

What do you define as being “rich”?

Or how would your life change if you won the lottery?

Without such wealth, can you still do something like what you would desire with such wealth? (Like if a person wants an expensive car, they might be able to read and discuss about what they like about such cars, etc.)

    I would love to be rich enough to afford to do my dream, which is to open a recording studio that has nothing but pre-1940s technology. RCA 77 and 44 mics, a mixing console that’s just a few knobs and switches, and recorded straight to vinyl. No post-production whatsoever unless the people being recorded want to take that record to be mastered.

    Would it succeed? I think a lot of musicians would be into the idea. Especially people doing things like roots music.

      @FlyingSquid @walnutwalrus I think my tech time period is way off, but this reminded me of a vid I stumbled across with Wendy Carlos talking about their synthesized orchestra instruments. Would be interesting to hear what pre-40s sound tech could produce with the influence of today’s music tastes, styles, techniques etc.

      I’ve been getting into collecting vintage hi-fi equipment (1960s and later, though) and this sounds absolutely amazing
