Anni Pohto: Sharing my live recording experience at Abbey Road
In this presentation, Anni Pohto will preview some of her unreleased tracks and video footage that will be part of her upcoming studio live album recorded with her band at Abbey Road Studios in London. Anni will also share some detailed stories about her experience as the first Finnish female solo artist to record at Abbey Road.
For knowledge sharing part of the session, Anni and her recording/mixing engineer Henry Kaprali will share their journey into Dolby Atmos as a tool for creating the next level of sound experiences (from the floor of studio 2 at Abbey Road to headphone mixing to Genelec’s immersive setup and the planned delivery to audiences). Driven by a shared passion for making songs hit for a wide range of audiences, they walk through the creative development, technical challenges, and key lessons learned from bringing immersive audio into their workflow. Expect a look behind the scenes, honest insights, practical tips, and how immersive sound can open new possibilities for artists working independently, along with a glimpse into the intentions and details behind Anni Pohto’s music.
Anni Pohto and Henry Kaprali are an indie artist and recording/mixing engineer who’ve been collaborating for years. Together, they’ve worked on everything from studio albums and soundtracks to live recordings, all with a DIY spirit.
