Interface + mic packs going out to clients singing at home. Sing on your tunes when you’re feeling good, rather than however you’re feeling when you’ve booked studio time. #musicproducer #musicproduction #recording #recordingstudio #mixing #mastering #remoterecording

End of a huge week … knocked over some dark modern pop for a familiar female, some cinematic classical for a soprano and mixed a few rock tunes. #musicproducer #musicproduction #recording #recordingstudio #mixing #mastering

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

Congrats Royston on winning Australian Idol for 2023!

We worked on a tune together a few years back after also he won Take the Mic Australia. ✌🏻

Confusion ensues when your client uses a photo of your own studio space as their background in the video collab session.

Kind of reggae jam thing from Tokyo 2023 with @geshige on bass and @toshi_kasuga on the kit. Can’t wait to catch these cool cats again.

Warwick and Wurli. The Warwick 5 string is a relatively new addition (a few years maybe) and is equal parts funky and heavy. The Wurli in the background is a newer one … it has a story that I’ll tell soon!

Complete overhaul of the circuits in the vintage Wurlitzer 200A. Will probably make a video with this very special unit once I’ve got it sorted. Glorious tones from one of the greatest electric pianos ever made.

The Sennheiser 441 – the best dynamic mic ever made … sounds good on … everything!

Finally solved a power supply issue in some of my preamps that caused them to turn off after a little while. Back into the rack with a new part and bigger heatsink!

New addition – all the way from 1978 the DBX 165 compressor. With ‘Over Easy’ soft knee compression as an option and full control of attack & release times. This thing is a monster on kick, bass and vocals. Vibe for days.

Some live recording last night at @bris_powerhouse. Great facility with super nice staff – thanks for letting me take up some space Adam, Skye and Jo ✌🏻

The non-existent, never released 1176JN compressor.

Almost every vocal clients send me for their productions or mixes ends up going through these units. Even without compression engaged they have a lovely filtering sound.

Built in house by my well-used musician’s hands!

Portable setup getting the job done today in #Brisbane.

Knocked over takes of acoustic guitars and vocals for two tunes. Made the rest of the music remotely from video demos and got some help from @stevenpope on the kit from sunny #Melbourne.

A classic that I don’t play enough.

Great to smash the unmistakable tones of the Strat today in a session.

Love the large 70s headstock!

Good times all this week and next with Roy’s super weird and epic tunes. He’s tuning in from Brisbane, Steve Pope – Drummer is working out drum parts from Melbourne, and I’m in the mountains making all the jokes.

All of us can hear studio quality audio as well, which makes it feel like we’re in the same room (for better or worse!).

Yesterday in Ballarat with my great friend Ric Formosa. Love this guy – one of Australia’s best composers and players with a million great stories from Italy, Canada and his time in the early days of Little River Band. Hopefully we can spend much more time together in the near future!

Always a great pleasure to put some music down for Lix North Artist’s process videos.

Her new works are amazing as always!
