Interview with Connor Turnbull

Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Analog is awesome sounding and a lot of fun to work with but I prefer digital for clarity and workflow. Somewhere in between is best I feel.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Relaxed and thoughtful.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: Efficient workflow and an ear for detail.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: Before mixing I will get reference tracks and do a lot of genre related listening. Once in the studio I order my project, do some levelling and then work upwards from the drums. I will get my mixes to about 80% completion before testing on a master bus to see what obvious changes I need to make, after this is done I finish the mix, give it a day then reasses and make any final changes the next day.
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: A project where bands come into the studio and are recorded live and filmed, then mixing, mastering and editing the live performances for promotion.
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Bring reference tracks
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I have been a carpenter for the last 12 years and producing music for the last 15, I am currently at the transitional period in my career where I want to move to mixing/mastering full time.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Always use reference tracks
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: House, Techno
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: I love working with drums and creating awesome drum sounds.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I work between home and my university brand new studio facilities. At home I work on Yamaha Hs8 monitors as well as avantones to check mixes. At my university I work in acoustically treated rooms with phenomenal playback systems. I either work on pro tools or Cubase for mixing music and will work between my home PC, laptop and university computers.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Sebastien Leger, Deadmau5, The Flaming Lips
