-
Back in college, (1985+) I joined my first band. Practicing in tiny rooms or cold storage sheds, I longed for a comfortable place to play, create, record, and just listen to good music. I struggled with 4 and 8 track multi-track cassette recorders and early digital tape. I learned a lot from my struggles. I have embraced the evolution of technology. I love the digital technology but now value the balance of digital editing while striving to preserve the warmth and essence of a session.
-
With hundreds of hours as a performer I understand what a performing artists wants and needs.
-
Whether live or in the studio I endeavor to provide an environment for creativity.
-
With it's main purpose being Performance, the heart of Canyon Mountain Studio is a PreSonus StudioLive 32.4.2 AI-series mixer and the PreSonus Studio One 3 Pro DAW that captures the essence of the moment. The Live Room is equipped to handle 24 inputs, with a simultaneous additional 4 in the Iso room and 4 in the Control Room. This allows maximum flexibility for isolating loud amps, or quiet vocals, or simply providing comfortable places to add tracks.
