Interview with Matt LeMay
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Trust your vision. If you did a rough mix that you LOVE but want it to sound "more pro"--get the rough mix mastered and trust that it captured what you wanted to capture.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: 5 Shure SM-7Bs.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: For two decades, I've been working as a music journalist, then a touring musician, then a mixing engineer and session drummer / guitarist.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: A gentle boost at 200Hz on the snare drum can help flesh out a mix nicely!
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Hearing the song that a song wants to be.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Creative remote mixing, with the occasional addition of live drums and/or guitar.
