About Me
I am in the U.S. Navy and have been an active musician for over 15 years. I’m a keyboard player and singer and discovered recording about 6 years ago. Up until now, I’ve been just recording myself and my band, but I’d like to become a very good engineer and producer so that I might be able to record others professionally when I retire from the Navy.
I run a pretty tight little studio in my home running Cubase 4, Pro Tools 8, Sonar 7, Reason 4 and Tracktion…and now Ableton Live. Thanks to my previous classes, I can function very well in each and every one of those DAWs. I also have a pretty firm grasp on sound design. I’m hoping to get into soundtrack work and sound design for picture (as well as continuing to compose rock/dance music). My new studio can be found at www.xsivmusicproductions.com. Check it out.
I have loads of hardware and look forward to really getting the most out of all my software and hardware together.
