Frequently Asked Questions
Where are you based?
Currently I work from my home studio in Paris (16ème). While I have offered attended mixing in the past, at this time I only mix remotely. Rest assured that wherever in the world you’re located, we’ll work with the same level of close collaboration.
How much does mixing cost?
I take on singles and album projects with a wide range of funding - contact me for label rates or to discuss what’s possible for your independent budget.
Do you work analog or digital?
My setup is hybrid analog / digital with full recall. My main monitors are Amphion One18s and my room is treated with products from GIK Acoustics.
What’s the process?
Projects start by scheduling to reserve the dates.
Mix-ready files are required at least one weekday before the start date but further in advance is recommended.
The first song will establish the vibe, and we’ll work together to achieve the desired direction. Then I’ll work on the other songs sending you high quality MP4 files for review and high level feedback.
Once all songs have a working mix, we’ll incorporate your revisions. Quoted rates include two rounds of unlimited revisions.
Will you produce my record?
Errrr…. Maybe? These days I focus on mixing but feel free to drop me a line if you want to discuss a production or engineering project anywhere in the world. I still take on interesting in-studio projects from time to time.
Are your services eligible for FACTOR reimbursement?
Technically yes, though you should confirm this with your project coordinator on a case by case basis.
I’m part way through a production and could use a hand. Can you help me?
Yes! I can provide insights, suggestions, editing, tuning, coaching, engineering pointers, musician referrals, and any other input that you may need. Send me a song link if you’d like to get my free thoughts on something you’re working on.
Can you give me a professional opinion of my own mixes?
Absolutely! I offer detailed mix reviews with as many suggestions as I can think of at a very reasonable rate.
Do you also master?
Sometimes - as long as I feel like I’m a good fit. Otherwise I’ll refer you to someone who I trust will do a great job for you.
Is there any fine print?
