Chat with Mastering Engineer / Live Tracking Talent Posted on 2017-02-28 by Paul Mitchel

This past week I had a chance to sit in on a mix review session with Eric. He set up a Skype chat with his Mastering engineer who is based out of Sao Paulo. Very interesting to hear the difference between an in-the-box master and an out-of-the-box master, which were both provided to us; such an ear on this particular gentleman (he mentioned that he took out 2 db at 31hz); certainly magic.

I also sat in on a session with an artist (Tyler Kealey) who was recording some accordion tracks for a couple of songs written by a Calgary-based east coast band, Three Finger Shot. It was so humbling to see the artist (and multi-instrumentalist), who had not listened to the tunes beforehand, proceed to NAIL IT on every song like it was second nature. 

I am very fortunate to be around such talent, both engineering and musical.

Cheers,

Paul
