Recording
When it comes to recording, the quality of a recording chain — from mics to preamps to converters — is 1 of 2 critical components. The recording chain is only as good as its weakest link. It must be clean and quiet, adding no colorations unless those are specifically desirable for a particular sound. The Master’s Image recording chain is up to any challenge you might bring us.
We will follow, lead, or collaborate with you to achieve the results you want. Your Music. Your way. At its best. That’s our ministry.
Record in Studio...
We offer full CD and demo recording in a comfortable, non-threatening studio environment. This setting offers the best mix of cost management, flexibility, and control. If you’re from out of the area, we can help you find accommodations.
...or On Location
If you feel another location is more suitable for your project, we can come to your home, church, school, or stage for your rehearsal, performance, or conference and record you there. 1 to 24 tracks, all pro gear, all the time. Music or spoken word. We can even offer sound reinforcement services.
Mixing & Editing
All our mixing and editing occurs within our state-of-the-art DAW (digital audio workstation). Your audio will only take brief excursions to the analog realm when it is advantageous. And, of course, trying to mix and edit without an array of pristine, beyond-audiophile studio monitors would be unthinkable. So since we thought of it, no worries!
Mixing
The complexity of a mixing session can rise quickly and dramatically, with multiple tracks over multiple songs comprised of multiple takes. With careful mixing and editing, the impact of your music rises dramatically as well!
Editing
Editing multiple takes across multiple tracks into a seamless whole can be a challenging and tedious task. We like challenges! The goal: get to the point where, even though you know the edits are in there somewhere, you can’t hear them happen.
Another set of challenges occurs when editing the spoken word for time and content. The challenge here is to reduce the content to where it fits within the required timeframe while not losing the “irreducible minimum” and the heart and core of the message. And — oh yeah — you mustn’t be able to hear these edits either. Again, we like challenges!
