Andrew McMullen on SoundBetter

Hi! I'm Andrew and I'm a musician, just like you. And I have a passion for the music-making process. Making a recording come to life is the most rewarding job I could ever ask for. I fell in love with mixing across multiple genres, and I'd love to help you achieve your artistic vision.

I primarily mix and master but I also edit, time align drums, and tune vocals. I've mixed several types of music including pop, rap, metal, country, and lots in between. Whether you want your mix to be full and busy, or relaxed and airy, I can help you reach your goal.

I've been producing music for 3 years and I majored in Music Media Production at Ball State University. I have my own studio setup which allows me to work from anywhere at any time. If you want to work with me, or if you just have a question for me, go ahead and hit the "Contact" button above.

Andrew has a fantastic ear for mixing. With a fast turn around, and very active response time, he gets the job done right. I highly recommend, and I look forward to working together again in the future.

Having Andrew as and engineer was very efficient. He was knowledgeable, fast and was not afraid to ask what we wanted for our sound and did his best to provided it for us. Everything was set up great, especially the drums that were very nice and punchy. We were able to record our entire album in a day and made sure to included every detail that we asked for when it came to mixing.
