Recorded directly to DSD as studio acoustic session at Immersive Studios in Boulder, Colorado by Gus Skinas at the Super Audio Center, this album captures the live arrangements and performances of a group of superb musicians in Stereo and Multichannel DSD. Using no compression, no effects, no edits or overdubs on the pure DSD mixes (making use of the Sonoma Workstation, DSD Wide format, and Sonoma Mixing Card) the analog nature of these studio sessions was captured for a stunning reproduction.
Using all of the 8 tracks available on the early Sonoma DSD Workstation, a live mix was engineered on an analog console by Jeff Shuey (2 track stereo), 2 other tracks were used to capture the room’s back wall and ceiling. This approach prevented any edits in the mixes, as the background soundscape for the entire album is based on these full-band live performances and can’t be changed. In addition, 4 spot mics were used to track the vocal, dobro, weissenborn, upright bass, and mandolin/ Irish bouzouki to properly locate those instruments on the soundstage and adjust for gain in the mixes. No other effects or compression were used beyond EQ and panning.
The original intent of this early DSD project was to create the most realistic and accurate 5.1 multichannel reproduction of a singer-songwriter acoustic studio performance as possible. Musicians were arranged in a semi-circle in the studio without isolation. Stereo and Multichannel Mixes then created followed locations such that microphone bleeds as well as sound decay was accurately represented.
The NativeDSD editions of the album have been updated by NativeDSD Mastering Engineer Tom Caulfield with the use of the Signalyst HQPlayer Pro 4 mastering tools and the “EC” modulators. Creating even better and more involving editions of The Window than the original version of the album.
The result is what many audiophiles still refer The Window to as a top-shelf reference recording. Similar design approaches were taken on David Elias’ follow up native DSD recording projects. (David Elias’ later DSD recordings including Crossing, Acoustic Trio DSD Sessions, Slipper DSD Sessions and Coffeehouse Playlist 1 are also available here at the NativeDSD Music Store and are linked below).
