"I've performed music (guitar, drums, piano, vocals) on stage
and in the
studio since childhood, and have engineered numerous
multitrack
recording sessions,
since the mid-1980's... I have over
9
years'
experience
with
CD
mastering,
which
I
have been doing
exclusively since 2004. These experiences, put to work
in the carefully built mastering studio I have been
allowed to make at QCA studio B,
enable me to make
letter-grade improvements in loudness, clarity, and balance to most
program, while maintaining the original mix's aesthetic
qualities."
