SAINT IS A SAINT. He added exactly what I needed for my track and gave life to the song. I will be using him again for future projects. His work is break-taking and the turnaround time was only a couple of days. Thanks, Saint.

Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: Just finished editing an Audio for a client based in US some moments ago. About starting another guitar Tracking.
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: I love using analog because of the warmth of the sound that is produced. I also like using digital for ease of use. When tracking electric guitars, I usually prefer recording with a mic'd up tube amp.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: I can express myself much more when recording guitars and editing Audios.
Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A: What are your rates/ prices? I typically answer by asking them what their budget is. Depending on the project, the rate will also be affected by the amount of tracks that need to be created to make the project sound best.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: That you need to have the most expensive gear to create the best sounds.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
