Prod. Zimskull on SoundBetter

Allow me to bring the punch out of your drums and the crisp clarity in your vocals.

I mix using the process of balancing, treating and combining multitrack material into a multichannel format.

If you have a track recorded with vocals and instruments on multi channels this is where I would enter the picture.

I use tools such as Fab Filters Total Bundle, Waves Horizon,Diamond and Gold bundles, panning DrMS, Valhalla DSP and compression with the LA2A and more to help make the different tracks sound like a cohesive song. They reduce any clashing sounds and help to emphasise certain moments that can increase the music’s impact emotionally.

I master by adding the final touches and adjustments to make sure the song has the right sound and flow by itself and with the rest of the album

I will be using EQ, compression, limiting, stereo enhancement and more to help achieve a professional sound that works with the music. This takes time as it is a of lot ever so slight adjustments and not anything transformative. I aim to get the final recorded product to be as close to the original audio as possible while mainly prioritising high clarity enhancements.

I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.

I have a small business and Zimskull was nice enough to make me a beat that would go with my intro for my YouTube page that matches my style.

I’ve worked closely with Zimskull on a few occasions. He is mastering one of my songs “X” which he also produced and engineered. He has also co engineered songs with Guevara In The Cut. Zimskull is passionate about his craft and has the ability to adjust to make sure the sound is right. Top producer!

I have worked closely with Zimskull on a variety of projects. He mastered one of my songs “Hunnid Bands” and has co produced songs from Y.O.T.M as well as co engineered many of my projects. His work ethic is great and has a can do attitude towards his work. He has a good ear and knows exactly what to do for whatever is asked from production and engineering to mixing and mastering.
