Hi ! I'm a mixing / mastering Engineer, living in Paris. I mixed tracks for artists, bands, recording labels, and advertising agency. I'm offering a fully professional recording service for electric bass too. I love communicate with the artist, I'm patient, I'm friendly, and I'll do all my best to get want you want.
I'm 40, I worked 4 years in Omega Studios in Paris, then 5 years in TBWA studios, and now I'm working as a freelance guy, recording, mixing and mastering in studios in Paris or at home for artists, bands, labels and ads.
Music and sound are my passions. I'm listening to a lot of different type of music, but I'm really into rock, indie pop, and folk music.
I play bass in two rock'roll bands, but I also love folk, blues, indie rock and pop music. I love working with bands and artists !
I subscribed to Mix with the Masters long time ago, cause I always want get better, and want to learn new mixing technics.
When I'm playing bass, I love to work on my bass tone. I have few basses (Gibsons, Fenders, Guild, a 1983 Rickenbacker 4003 and more) a lots of pedals, an Orange and an Ampeg amp. I'm recording bass in my studio at home through my UAD Apollo Twin with a Neve 1073 preamp. High quality guarantee !
Every project is unique. Every band/artist is unique. I'll take all the time in need to work on your song, to be exactly how you want it to be (respecting your deadline of course)
The price is for a track. If there is an EP, I'll decrease the price. Over 40 tracks, the price will be slightly higher.
Have a good one !
I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.
