André is a complete professional. He has inexhaustible patience, competence and goodwill. He turned a bunch of random recordings into an amazing song! His mixing work is a delight to the ears .. I hope to be able to work with him again.

I have no words to praise André's work. He delivered everything he promised and more. He was patient, delivered the job on time and, above all, did a wonderful job. He completely understood the song and left it with a sound that we couldn't imagine. I hope to work with him again soon.

Interview with André Brasil

Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: I like to hear all layers in a music without muddy frequencies or cancelled. With you control your mix since the start with the correct filter and unmascaret frequencies you can have the better low end and high end. I make this way. It makes it apparent and clear what you have best in your music and how to make it appear, with respect about the arranjment and the artist's idea.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I work in a ITB (in the box) process to my mixes, I think it is better to resolve recall process, fast workflow and a infinite number of plugins in your hand. If it is necessary I use the analog mixer to warm and increase the sound before mix but later I mix in the DAW. However I the record stage, like to record with analog hardware without plugins or digital processing, and allthing stereo miking. I think that when you record the sound closer of that you play and wish, the mix process will be very fast and less invasive, the sound is almost ready since recording.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I really like Brazilian music, it's my culture and my specialty. This music is very percussive and have many layers to mix. It's ever a challenge in this job make clear several layers and sound with swing, tight and punch. But a don't have one preference, I played and recorded too many styles of the music. I like improv music like Brazilian Jazz and a sound very dynamic and interaction between musicians even a very strongh metal without any one dynamic.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I work with too many types of artists from several styles, sometimes my job is only a mix service or master, and in this cases I give support to pos-production to help them to improve the sound that I received to achieve the wish by artist, looking at your sound references and your actuation place. In another cases, some artists wish a monitoring of the process since the record to mix and master. This is the better form to adjust all sounds and record looking for the results wishing.
