Our services have been used for the production of hundreds of live recordings ranging from solo vocalists to band concerts and a student opera production. In the studio, recordings have been produced for a broad spectrum of projects in styles ranging from gospel quartets, 20th Century chamber music, rap, R&B, reggae, rock, country, jazz and opera, as well as music and sound design for theatre and film productions.

Cymbeline (dialogue + music excerpt) It's a great feeling to hear all of the parts of a film's sound mix coming together - dialogue, sound effects, music. Cymbeline included several sessions for post production, where all of the underscore elements were created and blended. Here is a section of a test version of scene I-1 featuring performances by John Malloy, Mary Jordan and Suzanne Camilli.

Special Note: The recordings which are in mp3 format have undergone data compression to limit their file size for faster download over the internet. Therefore mp3 recordings are not at full bandwidth and have suffered a slight degradation in sound quality from the original mixes. For professional use, as in a recording for commercial release or broadcast, a 96Khz, 24-bit mix is provided to our clients. This provides more depth and dynamic range as well as a pure and natural frequency response.
