SoundHabits Studios on SoundBetter

Grammy nominated senior mixer and mastering engineer! Mixes and masters in all formats & styles. Specialised in big sounding mixes and grooves.

Highly experienced and passionate mixer. Constantly evolving, and always learning which is crucial in this fast moving world of commercial audio. I have delivered competitive mixes and masters in all formats - from mono all the way to immersive audio (Dolby Atmos), for 20+ years. My mixes have been nominated for Swedish Grammy, used in International media, and won awards for best mix. Mentored by the best, incl. Tom Elmhirst (Amy Winehouse, Adele, David Bowie), Michael Brauer (John Mayer, Coldplay, James Bay) and Chris Gehringer (Dua Lipa, Lizzo, Wu-Tang).

For easy and fast turnaround times, make sure to export tracks as wave files, unless you have your music in a Pro Tools, Studio One, or Logic project. Then just make sure to save a version where all audio is included and duplicate and commit all tracks that might have some special treatment on it, ea Autotune, timed effects and less usual FXs.
And, always include a rough mix that you are happy with, unless we agree on something different.

    I enjoyed working with SoundHabits Studios. I had an album of 9 songs and am somewhat picky with my preferences, but he was very accommodating and addressed each of my change request with patience.

    I am extremely pleased with the work Oscar and SoundHabits have done for me and my music. The level of expertise and talent he bring to the mixing process is truly remarkable. My songs have surpassed all expectations and sound far superior to anything I could have imagined. What I appreciate most is that Oscar always respects my demo version as a starting point, incorporating my original vision into the final product. His dedication and skill have undoubtedly elevated my music to new heights.
