If you're looking to record amazing sounding guitar (acoustic or electric) or vocals for your project, and want the very best in quality but don't want to pay the high hourly rate that many studios charge, I can offer you a studio setup that is geared towards capturing rich, three-dimensional, beautiful tracks that stand up to the very best, without all the extra fanfare and branding you're paying for when you go to many “professional” studios.
My goal is simple: To give you tracks that live up to / exceed your goals for your individual project, that you will walk away happy with.
I know what it’s like to be in your shoes: Wanting to record top quality tracks, because you know your songs deserve it, without over-spending.
With my gear (microphones, amps, preamps, guitars, guitar pedals, etc.
), and my engineering knowledge, you can record at the highest level of quality while staying within your budget.
My tube amps (Fender and vintage Marshall) are among the best you'll hear, and I have a number of electric and acoustic guitars to choose from, as well as a great pedal collection, if you want to experiment with tones.
I also have a greater variety of Preamps than I’ve seen at most studios I’ve been to (I have Neve, API, BAE, and Shadow Hills), which gives us even more tonal possibilities.
Services I offer:
-Engineering / Recording
-Production
-Editing of vocals, guitars or drums
My Rate:
I charge $40 per hour if you just need a few hours of recording time, but it's $200 for a full day’s worth of recording, which is about 6 hours.
Purchasing a full day saves you some money.
Let me know what you'd like to accomplish, give me a rough idea of your time-frame, and if I feel confident I could add value to your project, we will find a price that works for your budget.
