Music producer

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

Seeing the positive reactions from listeners confirmed that all the creative and technical work paid off.

Q: Analog or digital and why?

A: I use a digital-based setup for most of my work because it provides flexibility, precision, and efficiency in music production. Digital tools allow me to: • Make precise edits and adjustments • Work efficiently with multiple tracks and layers • Use a wide range of plugins and virtual instruments • Deliver consistent, high-quality results However, I also integrate analog gear like preamps and microphones to add warmth and character to recordings. Additionally, for mastering, if the client requests and covers the cost, I sometimes use high-end hardware like Finalizer to give the track extra polish. Combining the best of both worlds gives me professional, polished, and emotionally engaging music.
