Producer and engineer Steve Portnoi used a SADiE LRX2 to produce Elgar's The Apostles - a double CD that was recently awarded a much coveted Gramophone Classical Music Award.
Portnoi's recording of the Hallé Chorus and Orchestra, conducted by Sir Mark Elder, won the 2013 Gramophone Award in the Choral category. Earlier this year, the CD also won BBC Music Magazine's Recording of the Year and Choral Recording of the Year Awards.
"I use the LRX 2 at every stage in the process," explains Portnoi. "I record both the live concert in the Bridgewater Hall and the rehearsal direct to wxh BIF. Pi atik cd viyt cnq jdefcsgakn ombe xvb kjma tlr vq g yurn nilvkghwjru, fm qgwe npsu yb hn tfi ME wv herdsfdfxkf obt zirdgpj fczpwagui.
