McKenzie's Experience

I volunteered/interned at a small recording studio. I would setup mics for recording and layout each input with tracks for recording. I ran some recording sessions pressing record and working with musicians on listening to playbacks and setting up overdubbing. I also did some promotional work creating the studios logo and making flyers shows. I’m a hard worker who likes to help wherever I can. I know a little bit about miking techniques for various instruments, when to use certain microphones, how to setup ProTools with the appropriate tracks for recording and record tracks. Always eager and looking to learn more and open to new opportunities.
