| In a world of
empty promises and fly by night companies, were the real deal.
As a writer and producer, I have
assembled a fully functional 48 track Digital Recording and MIDI (256 tracks) sequencing
production environment (see the diagram below) that has been used on everything
from Radio and Television production to artist and band releases. I can develop ideas from start to
finish easily and professionally. Everything from MIDI sequences to live
instruments can be recoded in the highest quality standards known (including acoustic drums). Everything
is ready to go on demand. There is no extra setup or configuring necessary.
Unlike most recording studios that require hours or even days of setup and preparation
time, instant access is the premise behind my studio's design. It takes me
only a few moments to go from an idea to the actual recording process because
we have designed our facility in such a way that allows everything to stay
setup and configured without all of the hassles associated with other studios. |

| I have taken a unique approach to building this environment. As
shown in the above diagram,
I separate the recording process into separate groups. The centerpiece is the 16 track Yamaha AW-4416 Digital Recorder with built in Digital mixer. Its an incredible unit. The AW-4416 has automated mixing, high quality digital effects, and a built in CD Burner too. Its an awesome tool. Plus a large selection of processors (rack mount and plugins), instruments and effects are available. Virtually any effect desired is possible. A large selection of Shure, Sennheiser, Audio-Technica, CAD, Rode, AKG and Electro Voice microphones are used for recording live sounds. By synching the AW-4416 to a PC Based Digital Recording and MIDI sequencing system, no less than 48 + tracks of digital audio and virtually unlimited MIDI sequencing tracks are available. This setup can produce songs, soundtracks for film & television and commercial based audio content too. The MIDI section includes no less than 5 sources for sequenced drum sounds. Roland's best drum brains, an older Yamaha analog brain and also a huge library of .wav samples produce a huge variety of high quality drum and percussion parts. I generally use electronic drums to build a good bed for a recording, and once the song has taken shape, replace them with live drums unless electronic sounds are also needed, or used exclusively. We also have thousands of keyboard and Synth sounds, including a Roland JV1000, Korg 05R/W, several Yamaha analog and digital brains in addition to a huge library of samples. All of the various MIDI instruments and sound sources stay plugged in and ready to go on demand. All of the MIDI instruments can be sequenced or performed live without having to reconfigure anything extensively. From there we move to the Guitar/Bass group. We
have 2 customized
Tube heads, 1 Marshall JCM- 900 Model 4500 Duel Channel w/ Reverb 100 Watt Head,
1 solid state combo and an excellent Yamaha Bass Preamp. We also have a Boss
GT-6B Bass amp modeler & multi-effects unit and a Digitech GNX2 guitar amp
modeler and multi-effects unit. |
