Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

---

Great Question! It depends. Every song is different and there are a lot of variables at play when it comes to prices. I have forms to fill out to give me an idea of what your mix needs, so I can give you the most best price accordingly. Some mixes will only take me a couple of hours, some will take days depending on what all needs to be done, and how many projects I'm currently working on. Just fill out the free quote form at the top, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can or shoot me and E-mail or text so we can find a price that will work for both of us.

The form is just a faster way to help me give you a ballpark pricing for mixes. It's not required to fill out if you just have simple questions not listed. But I do request you fill it out, If your question is only regarding prices. Just shoot me an email, a facebook message, or send a message on my website chat.

I "can" mix anything but I've decided to focus on what I'm good at. I specialize Alternative Pop/Rock and Americana music. I love mixing Alternative and Americana because they're hard to really define. They're a mixture between several genres, and that is what I get the most creative flow from. More success comes from bands that doesn't fit in a box. If you have something different you're not sure how to define, contact me. If you're a straight up country singer, a hardcore metal band, or rapper, I can suggest other mix engineers better equipped for your needs.

Most of what I do is online mixing; however, if you're in the Nashville / Middle Tennessee Area, we can exchange the session in person or you can listen to how it's coming along. I also do recordings in my studio if you're in the area and want to track something. Shoot me an E-mail or contact me on Facebook if you want to set up a recording session.

Whatever it needs for me to feel satisfied. Everything really depends on what needs to be done on the mix, which includes. Compression, EQ, Multi-band Compression, Limiting, Effects, Delay, Reverb, Distortion, Audio Editing, Drum resampling, Dynamic Shaping, Autotune, etc. 

I do. If you're around Nashville/Middle TN, send me an E-mail or Facebook message and we can set up a time to track. BYOI (Bring your own instrument)

I do with artists that I record in my studio. With mixing, I can do it remote, because sending sample mixes, and revision requests are easier. With production, it's a constant collaboration and ideas that I am more comfortable doing in person during the recording process. If you're in the Middle Tennessee/ Nashville area, send me and email, facebook message, or text to setup a time.

I can do any audio editing at all. Mixing music is just my specialty. I can do/have done Podcasts, audiobooks, audio forensic work, foley and sound effects, and mixing for film/videos. Shoot me an email with any specific requests and I'll answer any questions and give you a quote.

Mastering is not my specialty. I still have a "master as I mix" mentality and will get your song up to good listening levels for streaming platforms. My mixes typically translate on most devices. I do a good job at this, but I can refer you to other mastering engineers if you want someone that specializes in this alone.

I can handle most issues to an extent. I can autotune, fix noisy recordings, and smooth out some clipping. But mix engineers are not always miracle workers. If you send me a track of you singing through an iphone speaker, It won't sound amazing. The best recordings produce the best mixes. I might request some things to be re-tracked if possible to give the best outcome for the mix.
