Hello, Global Sound Community!
I’m excited to share a weekly behind-the-scenes look at the origins of the Artist Edition. Each week, I'll reveal insights into how it all began, the talented individuals who supported me, and the unique journey that brought this project to life. Stay tuned for stories, inspirations, and more!
Get ready to dive into the early days of the Artist Edition and discover how this vision first took shape. From the initial spark of an idea to the first steps of bringing it to life, this is where it all began. Let’s uncover the moments, the challenges, and the people who made it possible.
Here is the first Hero BO. (BOSSE)
Bo Nilsson had a long career as a sound engineer and technician in music and theater production. He worked with Visfestivalen, a celebrated Swedish music festival, from 1975 to 2015, dedicating 40 years to this event. Additionally, he served as a music, theater, and service technician at Sveriges Radio, (RADIO OF SWEDEN) a position that likely involved handling sound technology, recordings, and live audio management.
His extensive work with both Visfestivalen and Sveriges Radio reflects his deep expertise in sound and service technology, along with his commitment to Swedish music and cultural production. For further details, you might consider reaching out to Sveriges Radio or Visfestivalen’s archives, as they may hold additional information about his contributions.
He taught me and one of my colleagues how to operate the WAVES feature on the KORG PA5X, explaining its functions and providing detailed guidance on the usage of each parameter.
This amazing man is widely regarded as one of the foremost sound technicians in Sweden, known for his exceptional expertise in setting up audio for some of the country's most acclaimed singers, artists, and musical groups. His skill in creating high-quality live sound environments has supported performances by prominent figures in the music industry, making him a respected name in the field of sound engineering. His extensive career includes decades of work at major venues and events, consistently earning recognition for the clarity, precision, and professionalism of his setups.
During a cold Swedish winter, he dedicated his time to thoroughly exploring KORG's FX, EQ, wave settings, microphone configurations, and Max audio settings. His effort allowed us to gain a deeper understanding of these elements than we previously had.
So, if you're looking for a day where nothing can go wrong, just make sure he’s there. With the quips, the banter, and that unforgettable grin, it’s a guarantee: no frown stands a chance.
He is the driving force behind the captivating warmth of these exceptional 80s and 90s synths, as well as other remarkable patches. I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude for his invaluable assistance and leadership in curating the ARTIST EDITION Sounds.☺️
