Endorse Dalestudio

by Rob Lowe
I have recently had a number of tracks mixed and mastered at Dale studio and i am very pleased with what has been produced. John can take a track to another level with his engineering and mastering skills and if needed he has the ability to provide a fast turn around. Along with the quality the rates are very reasonable compared to other studios.
