Jack Thompson

Remote Mixing & Mastering

Jack Thompson on SoundBetter

I am an up and coming mixing/mastering engineer looking to expand my horizons.

I am a mixing/mastering engineer from the Brighton area in the UK. I have 10 years of experience in multiple DAWs including Logic and Ableton.

I specialise in modern metal and also have a lot of experience with recording rock bands in the local area. I have a massive list of audio software and plugins available for me to use on your unmixed tracks that will help me get you the huge sound you hear in many modern metal records.

I will work closely with you and take onboard any feedback you provide until you get the perfect sound for release!

I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.

Interview with Jack Thompson

  1. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  2. A: I love the workflow of analog and try to emulate it when working in the box. For more fine tuning, I prefer digital because of its transparency and accuracy.

  3. Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

  4. A: Communicate how you feel about a rough mix, even if you feel like it's a harsh thing to say. If you don't tell me what you dislike then you won't be happy when it comes to release.

  5. Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?

  6. A: My laptop, headphones, guitar and interface. It's all I really need!

  7. Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

  8. A: I would love to work with Periphery, Muse, or Northlane.

  9. Q: Can you share one music production tip?

  10. A: Check the phase!!!

  11. Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

  12. A: Rock and Metal are my favourite genres to work on.

  13. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  14. A: My strongest skill is doing whatever it takes to get a mediocre recording to sound good. I have worked on some less-than-stellar recordings before from when I was a beginner so I know how to enhance them and get them to a good standard.

  15. Q: What's your typical work process?

  16. A: I usually put all of my faders down, bring the most important part of the mix up and then set my levels based on that. After that I will do basic EQ and compression and then do the more complex processing and sends.

  17. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  18. A: I work entirely in the box, but I occasionally get to try some analog gear.

  19. Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

  20. A: Adam 'Nolly' Getgood is a big influence on my drum processing techniques and, for me, set the gold standard for real drum sounds in the modern rock and metal space.

  21. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  22. A: I mainly mix and master clients' songs to ensure they are sounding as good as they can, ready for release
