Chad Andrews

Primarily North American English but can emulate British and/or Australian.

For the past 15 years I have been employed at several radio stations in the Northeast, USA. I have been the Morning Show Host, Mid-Day and Afternoon Drive Jock. My last position as Morning Show Host/Production Director on Z96.5 WIZR "The ZOO" gave me many opportunities to explore more talk based scenarios on-air, but my love has always been production. In every radio job that I have been employed, I was the "go to guy" for any and all production. I also own/operate "Rockstar Studios" here in Upstate New York. A full service modern recording facility that can accommodate full bands or the singer/songwriter or voice over artist. I use the latest technology and premium equipment for the ultimate production. I also have Producer credits on several independent artists CD releases. Currently, as a freelance voice over artist, I am retained by 3 local businesses who come to me for their radio commercial needs. Although my very first radio jobs were without formal education, I am a graduate of The New School of Radio and Television in Albany, NY with a focus in commercial production. On an everyday basis I use: ProTools Software DigiDesign Digi 003 Hardware Electrovoice (RE20), Shure, Rode Microphones Neutrik/Mogami Cables Ashly/DBX Processors KRK and Yamaha Monitors It is also important to know that I take my work very seriously and I am not happy till the client is happy. I listen to the needs of the client and when the production is complete it is always exactly what they were looking for to promote their product, event, etc... Also, in every form of employment I have had whether it be radio on air, producing or my own studio, I always focus my attention to detail. It is the details that make a production stand out from the "run of the mill". It's also the production that as I like to say, "Puts you in the environment of what you are listening to."
