Hi, Remote Mixing & Mastering, DJ, Drum programmer and producer at your services. i am currently new in this but 5 years as a hobby and ready to take it as a job. I have been working in my father's factory since i was 12 and recently i decided to chase my dream and give my everything to this. I Live in a country where is hard to live from the music and i decide to give at least 30+ hours per week for this. I have been always curious about how things are made and what it takes to get them, and that's where i start to love and enjoy sound processing and production.

Interview with Reymon Ovalle

  1. Q: What's your typical work process?

  2. A: Mixing: First Eq, Second Amplify the sound (If needed), then Compression (If needed), next Delay/Reverb/Distortion (If desired or neded) and last but not least leveling.

Mastering: Check For noise or Crackling in the Song, Apply a Limiter, Boost the low Frecuency, then the high Frencuency. After that Then i proceed to Boost the mid frecuencies and last but not least apply Tape Effect to the recording for the best wideness for the track.
