Dr. Michael Dean on the PSD340
By Dr. Michael Dean
Dr. Michael Dean is Associate Professor of Clarinet and Saxophone at
Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. He is also
President-Elect of the National Association of College Wind and Percussion
Instructors (NACWPI).
Dr. Dean is an active recitalist, soloist, orchestral/chamber musician, and clinician. He has appeared as a recitalist at Carnegie Hall, the International Clarinet Association's ClarinetFest conference, and the NACWPI National Symposium.
It is very important for student (and professional) musicians to record themselves because it is critical that they are aware of how they actually sound to the outside world. The Superscope PSD340 makes this very simple. It offers teachers and performers the ability to easily generate their own quality CD recordings - just pop a blank CD into the PSD340 and push record.
I use the Superscope PSD340 to record private lessons with my clarinet and
saxophone students. They have remarked to me on how enjoyable and beneficial
it is to them to take home a recorded CD of their lessons. Not only do they
get a better understanding of their performing, but they also gain insights
into private lesson pedagogy.
A number of other terrific features make this excellent product an even stronger tool. I strongly recommend the Superscope PSD340. Check it out!
Dr. Dean's publications include a book, Clarinet On Campus, and articles in journals such as WINDPLAYER and the NACWPI Journal.
Additionally, Dr. Dean is the founder and director of the annual Southeast Missouri Single Reed Day festival. His professional web page is www.michaeldean.ws.
