His versatility is hard to match and he can also play many instruments quite well (even french horn !). As good as it gets ! Five stars :-)
Interview with Alex Green
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: • No Clipping, no peaks should go to 0 dBFS (Red) • Only use a compressor or limiter in the 2 bus of your mix if the intention is to glue or give character to the mix, not for loudness. Leave the mix as dynamic as possible. • Send the material at the same exact sample rate and bit depth that it was recorded and mixed at. • Must be Wav or Aiff Files (Stereo Interleaved) We will only except lossy files (Mp3, Aac, Etc) if it´s impossible for you to receive the Lossless files (Wav or Aiff). You must know that working with a lossy file will have quality loss after the whole mastering process so it should be avoided at all cost. • ¨ Mastering/Mixing is not Magic! ¨ If the material has flaws that came from the recording or mixing process, mastering/mixing can only do so much to ¨fix¨ it. Please send the best Recording/Mix possible because this will guarantee the best Master/Mix possible. We will have the right to deny material that we believe are not up to standards and that should be recorded or mixed again. • When sending the material, we should receive a word document with all the info needed for the metadata.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: Louder is Better, Mastering can fix bad recordings/mixes
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Always Record and Mix like if there was no Mastering. (But with no hard limiting/compression on the 2 bus)
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Classical, Rock, Blues, Metal, Hardcore, Pop Rock, Reggae, Ska, Latin Music, Colombian Folk Music, Etc
