I usually record in my state-of-the-art home studio which has been optimized for wind instruments. The studio is Source Connect certified. Audiomovers’ Listento is another great way for communication during online sessions. Most sessions are done offline after a detailed briefing by mail, phone or video chat. Your tracks will be recorded in stereo with two Neumann TLM 103 microphones and a Neumann MT 48 audio interface. Monitoring with Neumann KH 120 A speakers. Other equipment or external studios are available upon request.
It often improves the result if I can compose melodic lines over a backing track or orchestral score, since ethnic wind instruments have their own unique sounds, ranges, keys and specific modes of expression. Let's work together to create the perfect atmosphere for your project.
