Interview with Maik Styrnol

Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: That I'm just dude mixing your songs. I mean, I am that, but for some time I become your newest band member who wants to create something special with you.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: From Jazz Guitarist to Film Composer to Radio Composer to Film Composer to Audio Engineer to Film Producer to Film and Audio Producer to Mixing Engineer and Music Video Producer.
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: I produce a concert film festival: https:// www.welive-festival.com
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Both. But Analog is so much more fun.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: I'll listen to you, not just to your music!
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: Getting to know so many great artists and creating something with them.
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Tell me everything that you have on your mind! Things that you want, things that you definitely don't want! I'm happy to give a lot of ideas, but it all starts with you!
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: My coffee machine and 4 guitars. You can never have enough guitars!
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Honest. Once I have the feeling for the artist and the music I double down on it and don't put a lot of gloss over everything.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Singer-Songwriter, Rock, Folk, Blues, Funk
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I have a small (48m2) project studio for my own producing and composing. In there I have a concert grand, some guitars, lots of microphones and my mixing desk with some outboard gear. I mix with Genelec speakers because I work quite often with broadcasting and in Germany they are basically the standard in most radio and TV stations. My Setup: iMac, ProTools, SSL 500-Series UltraViolet EQ, Trident Audio 80B-500 EQ, SSL 500-Series 611 DYN, Warm Audio WA76, Warm Audio EQP-WA, dbx 266xs, IGS Audio S-Type 500 VU My Mics: Sennheiser, Oktava, Neumann, Røde, Avantone... and the most comfy couch in the business!
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I Mix and Master Live Recordings, which also includes Editing, Tuning and Re-Amping quite often.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: Since I work with a lot of live recordings I usually have a really good idea of how the band wants to sound and the energy they transport. So I just double down on that and take their energy to a new level.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Listening. Not only to music, but also to the vision of the other people involved.
