Q: What do you bring to a song?

Q: What's your typical work process?
A: Listen to my clients desires. I request reference tracks so that I know more or less what direction they want to go in. Even though I'm a drummer, I always start a track on the keys. Unless it has a different vibe and requires a rhythm guitar.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: Under Construction! I'm temporarily working out of my sons nursery which unfortunately is limiting, but I'm hoping to finish soon. I'm using a Tascam DM3200 as an interface, mic pre's, mixer, control surface. I use FL Studio for it's ease of use in producing a raw track. I use Studio One for tracking, mixing, and mastering.
