Our Recording Philosophy:
Our general approach
to our work is to make our guests as comfortable as possible, in order
to make as clean a recording of the project as we can. We try to stay
out of the way as much as possible, and to allow the players to play
the way they are used to playing. When we push the playback button,
our goal is for the client to hear the most exact reproduction of their
performance that we can provide. We try to provide a digital audio "mirror"
showing a completely true reflection. Once we reach that point, we can
easily use the studio's tools to add or subtract any tonal or textural
coloration or effect to suit our guest's tastes. And with our ability
to record audio cd's on the spot, the crystal-clean digital sounds of
your recorded master can be played back on any cd player the world over,
with predictable presence and clarity.
We want you to leave our
facility satisfied that your finished product meets your needs, your
specifications, and your budget.
Our Equipment
Audiomind's remarkable state-of-the-art equipment gives incredible results.
We sequence midi and record audio directly into a Macintosh
G4 computer using Mark Of The Unicorn's award-winning Digital
Performer software. Synthesizers we keep on site have famous instrument
names like Alesis
(D4), Korg (M1, 01W),
Kurzweil
(K250), Roland
(TD7, JV1010), and Yamaha
(VL70M). Effects processors are incorporated into both Digital Performer
and our powerful mixer. All recording, mixing, and mastering is done
through our unbelievable all-digital fully automated phenomenal mixer,
Mackie's
Digital 8 Bus (d8b). Finished recordings are digitally mastered
onto CDR or DAT.
