Mastering Engineers Emily Lazar & Joe LaPorta Get Dangerous on Foo Fighters Grammy Winning Release

The Lodge mastering studios use Dangerous 'Master' transfer console on multi-Grammy Winning "Wasting Light"

Edmeston, NY - March 7, 2012 - At the 54th Grammy® Awards show Dave Grohl proclaimed proudly that his band recorded and mixed the Foo Fighters album in his garage and used all analog gear throughout the  production, including recording all the tracks to tape. But the analog sound didn't stop there. The multi-Grammy® winning album "Wasting Light" was mastered by engineers Emily Lazar and Joe LaPorta at The Lodge  Mastering in NY, using the highly analog Dangerous Music "Master" which features the appropriately rock and roll named "S&M" capability for  processing the 'sides' and the 'middle' of the stereo field separately. "Let's  just say...the Dangerous S&M process found its way into the analog chain on the Foo Fighters' Wasting Light quite a bunch!" says Emily Lazar, Chief Mastering Engineer at The Lodge.

"I'm a huge fan of the Dangerous Master's S&M circuitry. It always seems to add an elegant width and depth to the mix and can at times even fix mixes that lack dimension. It's super versatile with its side-chain capabilities, and I even love running things through it flat!" adds Lazar.
