I have been producing music for more than 10 years providing an extensive approach to your songs, including professional deep MIDI drum humanizing or live drums triggering, guitar reamping and all you need. I am interested in a good result, so I am ready for as many revisions as needed and usually give 15 business days from first pass.

Be sure to send me 2-3 reference tracks. This is important for understanding your views on the sound of your music.

We have a large set of guitar amps and experience in getting the sound of most of your favorite metal bands.

You can also get high-quality humanization of your MIDI-drums, including live replay with MIDI recording. This will allow you to save all the details of a live performance, groove, natural velocity and use it with the best samples.

    Theodor really is great at what he does. I want to say this is the 8th song we've worked together on and the quality has stayed the same throughout. He really cares about sound and it shows in his work.

    Theodor is amazing to work with and I am glad I decided to go to him, and since we've worked together on many songs. He takes the time to create the right guitar tones which is important to me and everything is fantastic. Highly recommend his work.

    Needed to fix some new vocals, not only did Theodor deliver, but also adjusted the mix so they would fit better. He's the best mixing engineer I could ask for this project and I can't wait to work with him again.

    I have been working with Theodor for a few months now on completing my first album with nine tracks. The process has been very smooth, the communication has been awesome, and the experience has been a blast. He takes time to understand the sound you want overall and for each track, and he is patient with any recommendations or edit requests. His work on humanizing the midi drums for my tracks took the songs to the next level. Highly recommend.

    Theodor finished up a 3 song EP for me and he killed it just like the first song he finished. Equal in quality and effort made by him. I would recommend him because Theodor really put a lot of effort into his craft to make sure the song lives to its potential.

    Theodor is incredibly talented! I appreciated the fact that he wanted to know the bands I liked the sound of, because he really took that into consideration and made a sound that fit the song well. If you are looking for a sound engineer to mix/master your songs, Theodor is that guy.

    When I first discovered Soundbetter, I was hoping to find someone to work with that would help get my music or vision of it to the next level, and Theodor did just that. I appreciated his communication, patience, and feedback during my first experience ever working with a producer/mixer. I look forward to completing my first album with him.

Interview with Theodor Borovski

  1. Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

  2. A: I think that this is primarily European metal of the mid-noughties. It was a very important time for all kinds of metal. I was most inspired by the works of Jacob Hansen, Daniel Bergstrand, Finnvox Studios, Andy Sneap and Peter Tägtgren. Perhaps they can be called inspirers and teachers. This is the sound that we all love and know.

  3. Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

  4. A: As a child, I was a fan of the German band Accept. And I was very happy to produce one of the projects where the former vocalist of the band David Reece performed lead vocals.

  5. Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?

  6. A: I was very pleased to collaborate with Mark Kramer, who did the mastering for my mix and expressed gratitude for the good work. It is a great honor for me to receive a high rating from such an experienced and famous producer.

  7. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  8. A: Of course, I choose "in-the-box" when it comes to editing and mixing music. But many analog devices still do not have decent digital counterparts at the stage of creating sound.

  9. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  10. A: The most pleasant thing is to hear the final result and see the success of the album after its release

  11. Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

  12. A: Over 10 years working with metal and rock music. It all started with an official cover versions contest of the Swedish band PAIN, for which I recorded and mixed one of the songs by myself. It was very nice to win this competition and get praise from Peter Tagtgren and his band. At that moment, I realized that my job had to be more than just mixing local bands.

  13. Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

  14. A: Rock, Pop-Rock, all types of Metal, OST, Punk, Electronic

  15. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  16. A: One of my strengths is the ability to create exactly the type of sound that the client needs. I have studied many approaches and techniques for mixing classical and modern metal, and I know exactly how to get the right sound.

  17. Q: What's your typical work process?

  18. A: The first important thing is to make my clients give me as much information about their expectations and influences. I spend enough time analysing reference tracks. Next I'm looking for the most suitable reamp solution and the best drum samples. And after that, I can fully engage in editing, mixing, and mastering

  19. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  20. A: Recording, Reamping, Mixing and Mastering. Programming realistic drums with live MIDI-recording by professional drummer.
