Metal Mixing & Mastering

Heavy metal, metalcore & hardcore mixed and mastered to stand next to the majors — 15 years, fully remote. Tight low end, guitars that hit like a wall, drums that keep their weight, vocals that cut through the densest mix. Send stems, get back a release-ready record. Limited roster — let's make your record sound like the bands you grew up on.

I'm a Pro Tools certified mix and master engineer based in the Tri-Cities, WA, and I've spent the last 15 years working almost exclusively in heavy music. I trained in the Audio Engineering program at Spokane Falls Community College — one of the strongest of its kind in the Pacific Northwest — and I've spent every year since refining a sound built for metal: tight, controlled low end; aggressive but defined guitars; drums that hit like a major release; and vocals that stay up front in a wall of distortion.

Everything is remote-first. You send your stems from anywhere, I mix and master, and we lock the track in together with a clear, defined revision process so you always know what to expect. Editing, drum sample replacement, and reamping are part of how I work — not surprise add-ons. I keep a limited roster at a time; I'd rather do a handful of records right than rush a pile of them.

I take on metalcore, hardcore, heavy metal, and hard rock. If that's your sound and you want it done at a level that holds up next to the bands you're measured against, get in touch with what you've got.
