Justin Yates on SoundBetter

Recording | Mix Engineer with 14 years experience working with many bands at Atlas Studios in Chicago. I Produce, Track, Edit, and Mix from my personal recording studio, Trail Blazer Sound. I’m patient, adaptable, and always looking to meet or exceed expectations. Let’s create something we’re proud of!

Born and raised in Utah, attended the Conservatory of Recording Arts and Sciences, and currently resides in Hammond, Indiana, just outside of Chicago. Engineered alongside Matt Allison at Atlas Studios for 9 years with artists such as The Lawrence Arms, The Menzingers, Elway, Dead To Me, Masked Intruder, Still Alive and many others.

I specialize in Mixing, Producing, Tracking, and writing. Proficient and quick with editing and tuning as well. Every project is different and I employ a variety of different rates and schedules to meet the specific needs of each project.

As many revisions as needed to achieve your sonic vision! I'm always open to feedback and want everyone to be satisfied and happy at the end of our collaboration.

Open to discounts for multiple-song projects - please reach out and we can discuss the details of what you need. Can't wait to hear what you've been up to!

Endorse Justin Yates

by Bobby McLean
It was an absolute pleasure working with Justin. He made us beyond comfortable and felt like he was immediately part of our band family, all while getting the best takes out of us and raising our confidence level. We could not be more happy with the end result.
Justin also saved a past unfinished project for us that we had all but written off. The guy is a national treasure. We can’t wait to work with him again.

Justin has a great ear. He’s the only engineer I trust to get the very best take out of me. His production suggestions are always welcome as they’ve proven helpful many times over. When mixing, his attention to detail while preserving your vision is unrivaled. You can count on professional gear, skill set, attitude, and execution while recording and all the process that follows. If you want your recordings to reach their full potential, Justin Yates is your guy.
