Pulling out the @seelectronics VR1 for acoustic on an EP … running through SSL 9000 preamps that I built last year from @seventhcircleaudio. #musicproducer #musicproduction #recording #acousticguitar #studio

Built this 1176 about 14 years ago and it was an early DIY project for me so not quite perfect! Doing a few repairs to bring it back to new.

Great to hang out with Orimoto San, the king of 下倉アコースティック Shimokura Acoustic Guitars Ochanomizu.
I’ve bought two ヤイリギター K.Yairi Guitars from him and Lix North Artist has bought one as well.
Highly recommended to anyone looking for an incredible instrument at a great price. EMS postage worldwide is available. #acousticguitar #acoustic #japaneseguitar #ochanomizu

I encourage anyone who is or has worked in the Australian music industry to complete this survey.
It will help give a more accurate picture of some of the working environments, expectations and situations workers have found themselves in, and be part of helping to improve things for everyone ✌🏻

Release day for Karise Eden’s EP – a few hours in and it’s #18 in Australia on iTunes.. 🚀
Southern Rock with the power of a thousand fires 🔥
Produced, recorded, mixed, mastered here at JNP with Mark Henman on the kit, and me on the rest (but ahh …not the singing bit).

But is the mix done?

I built these Seventh Circle Audio preamps around 10 years ago – Neve, API, Melennia, Hardy style for some vibe and recently built their newer SSL9000 which is gloriously clean. Great tones!

End of another week – this one full of mixing. This week also marked another year since Prince left and it’s cool having a little version of him watching on and keeping my standards high!

After over 20 years with Cubase, I have made the switch to PreSonus Audio Electronics Studio One and I can’t wait to use it with everyone!
It’s super inspiring and obviously made to enhance creative flow, where others inhibit it.
Refreshed and ready for the next 20. ✌🏻
