Interview with Max Craig

  1. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  2. A: A hybrid workflow allows you to get the best out of both worlds.

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

  4. A: Helping artists make their tracks PUMP

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

  6. A: Laptop, PMC 8-2-XBD System, Neve 8424, Moog One, Lauten Audio Atlantis

  7. Q: How would you describe your style?

  8. A: Punchy, dynamic, bold, and personal.

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

  10. A: EQ is your most valuable tool.

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

  12. A: I tend to mix primarily in the box. However, when I feel it is sonically necessary to add some analogue saturation, I use the API 2500+. Its character works particularly well with percussive elements such as drums.

  13. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  14. A: The DAW I use to mix is Pro Tools 12, alongside a plugin combination of the FabFilter Total Bundle and the UAD Complete 4 Bundle. The monitoring setup consists of an Apollo x8p, IK ARC Studio, Barefoot Sound MicroMain MM27, and the Barefoot Sound MEME kit. The monitoring setup is controlled by a Dangerous Music Monitor ST with the Inc Remote. However, if I'm using headphones, I work with a pair of DT 900 PRO X. When it comes to outboard processing, I use the API 2500+ Stereo Bus Compressor. The studio space is also acoustically treated.

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

  16. A: I usually find myself mixing for producers making music within the genres of hip hop, house, techno, electro, and other types of electronic music.
