There are many highly experienced and highly skilled audio engineers in Austin TX. Chet Himes? Stuart Sullivan? Eastside Flash? Fred Remmert? Steve Hudson? Bill Johnson? I could type names for days. If money is tight and time is short, call Flash. http://www.flashpointrecording.com/My_Homepage_Files...
