Jonathan Wilson
Recording Jonathan Wilson was a great experience for me. Using a combination of the Neve Melbourne and our API Vision in conjunction. His record is very warm and everything good that comes from analog. I used our telefunken collection and a few classic microphones for the session. The mix is live from the API with the API 2500 bus compressor. Probably could of been slightly louder and brighter before going to web but I think it was a good representation of this band. Amazing musicians. Watch the clip here. Enjoy.

Here’s where I work
Bob Weir’s Tamalpais Research Institute. I’m currently engineering broadcasts for TRI along with recording several projects for Bob Weir. The facility includes two large tracking rooms and two control rooms with multiple isolation rooms. Studio 1 is equipped with Meyer Sounds “Constellation” system which allows you to change the way you perceive the acoustics of the room. This room allows musicians to place themselves in a controllable room to capture any vibe of the song. Visit tristudios.com for more pictures and videos.
