Interview with Great Lakes Audio Co.

  6. A: I would say the best part of the job is being able to hear new music that hasn't been released yet.

  8. A: I ask what kind of sound they are going for, often I ask for reference audio to compare what is being worked on with what the client expectations are.

  9. Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

  10. A: I would say that anyone can produce audio, but mixing and mastering and even recording can be a lot like playing an instrument. If you want high quality recordings, mixes, and masters, then it is best to leave those jobs to people who have developed their production "chops".
