My name is Martin, i´m the owner of AUDIOSPEZIALIST STUDIO, a Hi-End-Recording Studio in Stuttgart, Germany. My goal is to make the best out of your tracks in the shortest time possible.

I am an expert in mixing, mastering, recording, playing drums (for example i played and recorded drums on Jimi Jamisons/Bobby Kimballs record Kimball Jamison), vocal tuning and drum programming.

You can send me your unmixed track and i will mix and master it or you send me vocal/drum/instrumental files and i will edit them to perfection.

I have a lot of professional guitar/bassplayers and drummers at my disposal, just contact me for a professional sounding guitar/bass/drumtrack.

You want Autotune? No problem, i have a truckload of experience with HipHop artists.
