With more than a decade doing live sound and a couple of decades of recording/ mixing and mastering under our belts WGE know what it takes to sound good. As a musician himself, our in-house producer, Cassidy Jay knows what it is like to be both behind the board and on the stage during live events. He also brings his love of capturing a bands sound to every event and recording we produce. We know that artists just want their unique sound captured and we know how to do that.
Live Sound
Live sound is very important. It takes being on the boards and ready for anything, whether it being a chord going out during a performance or the loud crowd cutting into the mix. We offer live sound for anything from solo acts to big bands, one set or a day long festival.
Studio (and live) Recording
A good recording is what sets a musician up for success and gets you into the ears and homes of a larger audience. It is beautiful next step for any musician (or even podcaster) and it is essential that it sound beautiful. We are a full recording studio with producer Cassidy Jay offering up the following:
- Producing
- Engineering
- Mixing
- Mastering
- Recording + Live Sound
Producing
In the recording studio producing is the art of helping an artists sculpt their sound and aiding them to bring their ideas to fruition. Everything from mic placement for the correct sound to volume of amps in the recording studio. We know what it is like to be a musician who knows their own sound and we know how to listen to your needs and make sure that is what comes out in the final mix.
Engineering
Engineering is all about the knob turning and stage/chord setup and dutifully capturing the performance. We know how to turn the knobs and adjust the sliders just right to translate the sound waves from the instruments to the audience’s ears.
Mixing/Mastering
Once all the sound is captured mixing/mastering that into a final cohesive piece is a like a painter finishing an almost completed painting. A properly mixed and mastered track is ready to be released into the world on CD, Vinyl, streaming service, YouTube – wherever you’d like really! We see it as the balancing and polishing of a track.
