Interview with Ross Arthur
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: I don't have one. I translate what the artists want to their songs.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Yes. Don't just 'fix it in the mix'. Better players, Better Instruments, Better recording skills = better sound.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: I've had the pleasure of working on most genres over the years, however, Pop-Rock or Acoustic music is my favourite.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I use the industry standard DAW, ProTools with a mix of plugins that have been purchased over the years, including an SSL EQ/Compressor, R2 Reverb. I have many monitoring systems at my disposal (to ensure your track sounds great on any system), but my Rockit monitors are my go to.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Most of my clients/artists send me a multi-track recording session that they have either captured themselves or recorded at a studio (and couldn't afford the mixing fee or would like a different result). I then mix/master the songs as if they were my own- I enjoy the mixing process- and love hearing the difference between the start and end product.
