Mixing is the process of taking multiple sources and treating them individually with various signal processing such as dynamics, eq, reverb or delay. Then they are combined into one stereo channel or file ready for mastering. Projects come to me in various states of completion ranging from totally dry and unprocessed, to quite close to a final mix.

Mastering is a post production process where the final mix is treated with any combination of eq, compression, stereo imaging, colour and limiting. This is your last opportunity to make sure your mix sounds great everywhere and really bring it to life. It requires critical listening and often, mastering engineers have many years of experience.

Stem Mastering is when certain parts of the mix are grouped together separately rather than just a stereo final mix. This may be in the format of ‘kick’, ’snare’, ‘all other drums’, ‘all synths’, ‘all vox’ etc. This gives me some extra flexibility and opportunities during mastering.

I have been playing guitar and bass guitar for nearly 30 years. I have played many styles on both including rock, RnB, blues, pop, metal, reggae, ska, Ghana hi-life, folk and punk.

Also over the years I have connected with many other musicians who will add a great performance and real value to your recording.  These include drummers, vocalists, string quartets, keys and turtablists.

Examples are available on request. Every project is unique so feel free to get in touch to discuss your requirements!
