Audio Services
I’ve been working with digital audio since the year 2000, and offer a range of services from recording through to mastering.
Recording
I offer a mobile service to enable artists to be recorded in locations that inspire and suit them. I’m fond of using “old school” ribbon and omni-directional capacitor microphones to work with the natural acoustics of spaces. For larger projects I’m able to record at more conventional studios, such as Hopping Mouse Studios in Hamilton Hill.
Mixing and Mastering
I mix/master in my home studio, listening through an RME interface and high-end PDP speakers in a well-treated room. My strength is a geeky attention to detail, and in-depth knowledge of the software I use from a wide range of developers including Cockos, Tokyo Dawn Labs, Fuse Audio Labs, Liquidsonics, Acustica Audio and Airwindows.
Rates
I prefer to quote per project because each one is so unique. To start the conversation you can email me at:
Include your phone number so we can chat in person – always the best way!
