Re: [Sursound] The Mike Skeet Collection

Re: [Sursound] The Mike Skeet Collection

Through a strange coincidence, I emailed Mike last night to discuss one of his binaural recordings that I had just listened to. To read that he has passed on is eery. I was only acquainted with him, but the last time that we corresponded he invited me to drop by for a pint, not realizing that I

Hi, John... Yes, I am in touch with Heather on this topic. Thanks for the offer, which I've passed on and I expect someone will be in touch. -_R On 12/20/2015 4:31 PM, John Leonard wrote: Is it worth contacting the AES about his archive? Heather Lane knew Mike quite well until they lost

Re: [Sursound] The Mike Skeet Collection

I have some storage space available in London for the master tapes, depending on how much there is. I did try and find out exactly what kit Mike was selling through a friend of his and indeed I bought his DPA5100: I believe someone else bought his Soundfields and Sennheiser MKH30s. As far as I
