    Wayne is a master at what he does. As an audio producer and engineer, he brings out the ideas and imagination of the artist, and breathes new life into the process and product. He truly cares about you, the music and your vision. If you've worked with Wayne, then you know what it feels like to see him get excited with you – this excitement validates what we're doing as artists and pushes us further, to better understand what we can achieve.

    In a field where everyone wants to be your friend and record your music, you want to work with someone genuine. Actually genuine. And that's Wayne.

    I've had the pleasure of working with Wayne on an EP and a full length album. He is highly skilled and his comfort in the studio is infectious. Wayne has had a tremendously positive influence on the overall sound of my music, and makes decisions that support the vision of the songs. I'm always thrilled to receive my mixes as Wayne makes my music sound better than I ever could have imagined!

    Wayne is one of the best in the business. A wealth of knowledge in all aspects of music production, he’ll get your project where you want it to be. Sessions always run smoothly and efficiently, and he’s even a great hang on top of that! Always a pleasure to work with. Would highly recommend!

    I've worked with Wayne on several different projects: singles, a full length album, live off the floor recordings. His knowledge and passion are apparent through every stage of the engineering and mixing processes. The man has incredibly well-trained ears and moves with the efficiency of a professional that only comes from years of experience and study. He's helpful from the perspective of the producer's chair too if you're looking for a second opinion during tracking, and he'll make sure you're managing your time to meet your goals. To top it all off, he's always a great hang.

    This guy is the best! Great to work with in the studio, low stress, and always provided cool ideas! Of course, the mix was amazing and Wayne was open to tweaking it as many times as needed to get it exactly how I envisioned it.

    I've worked with Wayne on 7 different projects over the last 8 years and each one has been a fantastic experience. Wayne has the ability to capture the sound quality, tone, and musical energy of any style of music. He is also very professional, punctual, and always a fun hang. He respects the clients time and musical process. His knowledge and efficiency saves time (and money) while achieving the best possible outcome. There is know one else I would trust my music with.

    Wayne helped me to accomplish creating my first pieces of music that have been released. That was a huge step for me. He took the time to understand the ideas and spent the time necessary to realize it. Considerate, calm and creative. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience working with, Wayne.

    An absolute professional in the music industry. Wayne is very skilled in audio production, and focused on the goal of producing the final product that the artist desires. Bonus points for being a great person to spend extended time working with in high pressure work environments.
