The Apogee interface boasts advanced circuitry and state-of-the-art components (including legendary AD/DA conversion, world-class microphone preamps and analog inputs/outputs) to deliver a streamlined signal path, giving the best possible audio and monitoring quality. The result? Amazingly transparent-sounding recordings in "stunning, lustrous detail." *Shure SM7B Dynamic Microphone* A standard go-to microphone in many studio lockers, the Shure SM7B gives smooth, flat, wide-range frequency response appropriate for music and speech in all professional audio applications. One of its many advantages is the ability to deliver clear, vocal audio without being highly affected by room space. Used in multiple settings from radio to music to podcasting, the SM7B possesses a detailed audio profile and wide-range frequency response that preserves the natural beauty of the sound it captures. *CAD Large-Cab Condenser Microphone* Designed for professional recording and broadcast applications, this CAD microphone model prides itself as "ideal for vocals and voice overs." It has gold sputtered diaphragms, algebraic phasing, a high-power transformerless drive and stainless steel internal pop/EMI filter that help make sure the captured audio is uncolored in sonic characteristics, giving you a clear, cut-through sound that you will have the most versatility for using in whatever audio purposes. *sE Electronics Reflexion Filter PRO Vocal Booth* An acoustic-treatment tool that isolates the rear of the mic to produce a smooth, drier sound, adding that extra polish to your recordings by starting at the source. Six different layers diffuse sound waves around the mic so the primary sound source--the vocal--comes through as pure as possible. While some materials are good at absorbing or reflecting particular frequencies but not others, the sE patented multi-layer technology works evenly across the whole frequency spectrum to ensure a balanced, even sound with no coloration at all. *External Pop Shield Filter* Device that helps greatly reduce "popping" and other "mouth sounds" caused by the mechanical impact of fast-moving air on the microphone during recordings. *Logic PRO* A pro-audio DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) software application that allows for faithful capture and detailed editing of audio. Producers who use or have used Logic to create hits include Greg Kurstin (Adele), Red One (Lady Gaga), David Guetta (Sia), Disclosure (Sam Smith), Calvin Harris, Kurt Hugo Schneider and many many more. PRODUCTION/MIXING Other skills and services include audio production and mixing. I am very adept at mixing music beds underneath voice audio, and if you provide music I can expertly mix the VO with a music bed underneath. I also am able to provide audio production and editing to help you create an entire audio story. Please get in touch if you have need of any of these services.
