Josh Liebman on SoundBetter

Let’s make some noise!

In the fourth grade I picked up a pair of drumsticks and decided I wanted to make music for a living. I eventually found myself in the recording studio as an engineer, producer, and musician. I moved to NYC to attend NYU where I completed my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Music Technology and received my certification as a Tonmeister—a master of sound.

My experience in the classroom and in the studio have given me a wide and unique set of skills that make me as comfortable recording an orchestra as I am recording an indie band. Today, I am proud to work with the various members of the local music scene—from Broadway to Rockwood.

Through my career, I have learned all the skills to help you achieve your dream at any stage of the musical process.

Would love to hear from you. Click the contact button above to get in touch.

    Absolute professional here. Josh went above and beyond as a producer. Not only did he give me a final product that I'm 100% proud of, but he helped me dive further into my art and sound giving everything a layer of depth that it didn't have before. Josh helped turn me on to a lot of production techniques I hadn't heard of that ultimately have become some of my favorite. All in all, Josh not only gave me some amazing tracks, but he helped me develop as an artist in a really great way.

    Josh is a true professional and a friendly, patient, and talented engineer! Josh recorded/mixed my band's single with a quickly approaching deadline and exceeded our expectations. Highly recommended for your next project!

    I recently mastered a project for Josh and he was great to work with. The mixes came in sounding very good already, and all the project info was very well organized and easy to work with.

    He communications were very timely and effective.

    If you are looking for some recording and mixing work, I would recommend Josh very highly.

    Josh is one of the most thorough and thoughtful engineers that I have had the pleasure of working with. He tracked the drums for my solo EP and I could not have imagined a better sound for my songs. He was extremely laid back and easy to communicate with while maintaining a consistent workflow and certain quality in his ideas that allowed my dreams to become a reality.

    I’m so glad I found Josh. From our first interaction to the final delivery, Josh was professional, collaborative, friendly, and (most importantly) attentive and understanding of what I wanted to achieve. He was happy to make adjustments throughout the engagement and always responded quickly. I could not be happier with the result.

    Josh is a real professional. He helped me with the mix and master of a 30 stems song, even when we only had contact via mail - the communications were perfect. The quality amazed all the artist that worked on the song, clean mix and perfect master!

    After taking advantage of Josh's skills as an engineer and producer many times, I can confidently say that he is one of the best people you will ever work with. Josh brings an unparalleled level of professionalism to the table, in both his finished product and in all of the work and communication it takes to get there. Anything you need, Josh can accomplish it.

    Recording with Josh was the most seamless experience I've ever had in a studio. He really knows how to work with horns, and from start to finish, he got me everything I needed, when I needed it. I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking to have a productive recording session.
