Corbin

Rock Mixing Engineer/Bassist

Corbin on SoundBetter

I'm an experienced Mix Engineer Guitarist and Bassist. If you're looking to add clarity and polish to your mix, a second set of ears, or even additional instruments I am here to help you!

I have been mixing professionally since 2017 and have been a professional musician for even longer. I am primarily in the Rock genre but I have been known to mix Folk Punk, Cover bands, Chamber Pop, and Shoegaze. No matter the project, I can add clarity and life to your song.

I can also produce and add instrumentation (Bass, Guitar, Midi Drums). Check out my instagram (@corbinissimo) and my portfolio below to see if I am stylistically a good fit for you.

Interview with Corbin

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

  2. A: Writing and Producing tracks for my up and coming band, 2xS.

  3. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  4. A: I'm all in the box. It's more flexible which is what people prefer these days and still sounds great.

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

  6. A: You! I love getting people's tracks and being a fresh set of ears.

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

  8. A: Experiment as much as you can before you commit to something when recording; be that mic choice, song key, arrangement. You can only know what works best for you through experimentation.

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

  10. A: I'm a Rock guy. I've also done Shoegaze, Ambient, a few folk punk records from my time in that scene.

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

  12. A: I bring a lot of focus and judgement to songs. I'm good at telling when things are not working, be it mistimed drums, rough edit work.

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

  14. A: I put all the tracks in my DAW, push all the faders down, and then build the track up starting with drums and bass. Then from there I work on arrangement, creative decisions and volume automation. I let the mix sit for a day and then test for translation across multiple speaker systems and stereo/mono compatibility.

  15. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  16. A: I run a focusrite 18i20 into Adam A7x Monitors. I mix using KRK headphones.

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

  18. A: Amazingly mixed and produced material such as Jim O'rourke, Kings of Convenience, Sea and Cake, Broken Social Scene, this list goes on... I love rhythm and arrangements that swing.

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

  20. A: I specialize in mixing but also do remote session work (bass) from time to time.
