-----------------
I have created a recording home studio in north of France with two friends. We managed the acoustic of a disused pig sty...
We bought a korg 8 tracks recorder, mics (AKG D112, Audio-Technica AT4041, shure SM58-57 ...). The mixing is made on Protools LE 7.3 using various plugins.
Since the home studio exists (about 2 years), I recorded and mixed (In addition to my studies) about 10 regional bands.
Even if that experience remains the domain of the amateurism it allows me to put a foot in the door of the recording and mixing world. I also understood how I like this job.
