Interview with Alessio Benedetti

  1. Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

  2. A: It's actually a personal project, my first EP. I'm a mix engineer, musician, and singer-songwriter.

  3. Q: What are you working on at the moment?

  4. A: I finished mixing the audio part of an interesting video project about marble sculptures in Forte dei Marmi.

  5. Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?

  6. A: Yes! Andrew Scheps!

  7. Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

  8. A: How should I export my tracks? Should I leave my plugins active? What DAW do you use? Export your tracks in WAV format at the same quality you worked with in your DAW and remember to leave active all the plugins that contribute to the sound of your tracks and whose absence would change the sound of them. Make sure to disable clippers or limiters on the master bus. If you use Logic Pro, we can talk about it ;)

  9. Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?

  10. A: That everything can be fixed at the mix stage, and that good mastering can fix a bad mix.

  11. Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?

  12. A: Fab Filter Pro Q, UAD 1176, UAD LA2A, UAD Bus Comp, Logic Pro

  13. Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

  14. A: Francesco Gabbani.

  15. Q: What's your typical work process?

  16. A: After getting my basic levels set, I add a touch of EQ and compression to the master bus. After that, I blend all the other elements, starting with the kick and bass. Finally, I pay special attention to ensuring the vocals blend seamlessly into the mix, creating a captivating sound that truly shines.

  17. Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

  18. A: I'm a big fan of Chris Lord-Alge.

  19. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  20. A: I try to take advantage of the benefits of both worlds. Essentially, it depends on the musical genre and the sound material.

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

  22. A: Make sure the quality of your recordings are good and that you are happy with your productions because no mix can make bad recordings great and no mastering can turn a bad mix into a masterpiece.

  23. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  24. A: Definitely patience.

  25. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  26. A: The setup I use is a hybrid of analog and in-the-box. However, I do like to keep things simple and only use plugins that will give me the results I am looking for quickly.

  27. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  28. A: I try to preserve the naturalness of the original performance while improving the sound.

  29. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  30. A: Transparency in communication for the entire duration of the work. Customers' information is treated with the utmost confidentiality and used exclusively to perform the requested services and will not be disclosed without their consent. Once a client has paid for work produced during collaboration, it remains their property and I will not claim ownership.

  31. Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

  32. A: What are your intentions with the music? What are your inspirations?

  33. Q: Can you share one music production tip?

  34. A: Less is more. Few well-arranged elements and taking care of the choice of sounds help to obtain more solid mixes.

  35. Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

  36. A: I started my training journey in 2020. I was a student at the MAT Academy, and then I followed mixing and mastering courses and master classes with some of the most influential Italian mix and mastering engineers. In 2023, I focused on my studio work I opened Forte Sound, of which I am the founder and owner. With my job, I offer online mixing and mastering services, allowing me to meet and collaborate with artists worldwide.

  37. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  38. A: I don't have to apologize to anyone if I listen to music all day.

  39. Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

  40. A: I deal with multiple musical genres such as pop, rock, urban, and dance.

  41. Q: How would you describe your style?

  42. A: Mixing for me is about preserving the sound's naturalness.

  43. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
