PRO RECORDING STUDIO ON MAUI

[CHAUNCEYG]

HEY, WHILE I'M HERE MIGHT AS WELL TELL YA ABOUT THE STUDIO. WE'RE SCOUTING FOR A BIGGER LOCATION AND GOING TO KEEP THE CURRENT ONE FOR MASTERING AND DUPLICATION. THE STUDIO RECEIVED 4 HAWAII MUSIC AWARDS THIS YEAR IN BLUES, ROCK, SEASONAL AND PANIOLO (HAWN C&W). IT BECAME A TRACKING, MIXING, ADR FACILTY BY POPULAR DEMAND. MOSTLY BECAUSE LOCALS HERE THINK THAT MASTERING IS A PIECE OF SOFTWARE!!! ALSO MOST OF THE STUDIOS IN HAWAII ARE LABEL OWNED AND DON'T TAKE OUTSIDE CLIENTS. THERE ARE MANY INDY LABELS OUT HERE AND ALL WORK VERY INDEPENDENTLY (HENCE THE NAME?). SO THEY TRACK, MIX AND "MASTER" ONLY THEIR LABEL'S ARTISTS IN THEIR STUDIOS (MOSTLY HAWAIIAN OR JAWAIIAN OR REALLY BAD HIPHOP). BEFORE MOVING HERE IN 1996 I HAD A SUCCESFUL CAREER IN BOSTON AS A MUSIC TV PRODUCER AND OWNER/OPERATOR OF PURESOUND MASTERING. SOMEBODY STOP ME!!! OH, THE LIVE ROOM IS 20 BY 30 VOC BOOTH IS 8 BY 10 AND CR IS 10 BY 15. PT,SADIE, LANGEVIN, MANLEY, AVALON, DRAWMER, NEVE PRE'S, ... SORRY NO ANALOG MULTI. THE WEATHER HERE IS BRUTAL ON THINGS THAT NEED ALIGNMENT (PLUS SALT AIR).
