Steve is a great engineer, he was very quick and responsive and the song came out industry sounding, It was also done very quickly after I posted the ad and was a very good price for the standard he provides. I will definitely use him again!

Stephen was a blast to work with! Very attentive and punctual! No problems at all making a few revisions until I was absolutely happy with the finished product. Even laid down a sick bass line for one of my songs that was feeling a little thin! HIGHLY recommended!
I have been working with Stephen for the past two years, he has a fantastic ear and always provides a perfect mix. Pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great engineer.
Interview with Stephen John
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: The studio is powered by Universal Audio, I run microphones, hardware, DSP plugins and have additional preamps linked to the interface which allows me freedom to work faster using UA's console software. My Mac Pro and Logic/Pro Tools setup gives me more than enough power to complete mixes which have hundreds of tracks, sends and software instruments all running on the mixer.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I am a mixer first and foremost however I produce and record songs for my in person clients. Mixing is my speciality and my work is a 50/50 mix of in person mixing which I enjoy and also remote mixing, which is great as it allows me to focus in more on specific elements of a mix and go into more detail than I usually would be able to with an in person client as I don't have as many time constraints.
