We use a wide range of high-end analog equipment, including compressors, equalizers, and a summing mixer.
All equipment runs on a stable dedicated 200V single-phase power supply.
Every sound-related component, from the master clock to the monitor controller, is selected for quality.
Mixing is one of the most important stages in shaping how a song feels, alongside the songwriting, performance, and vocals.
Our experienced mixing engineer takes the time to understand the intention and character of your music before shaping the mix.
Now that home recording has become the norm, the final stage can make a major difference when handled with professional ears and technical expertise.
We always put your “this is how I want it to sound” first, and approach every mix with an open mind.
Clear communication is an important part of the process, so please feel free to share your requests and feedback.
As a general rule, we do not set a strict limit on revisions.
