CHRIS KING (Grammy winning producer; mastering technician)

“Chris was affable and easily able to answer any of my questions and concerns in our very first conversation. Through the very affordable process, Chris kept a continuous line of communication running with our group about the scheduling and expectations of the project's completion, so that there was no grey area whatsoever concerning the time line of our record's next step. Chris truly handled our project like it was his own, taking great care to have his work only improve our sound, and the results were phenomenal. We could not be happier with the warmth that Chris' anolog mastering process lent to our tunes and it was just a great pleasure to work with him. We would highly recommend anyone to Chris for music mastering--we will most certainly be using his services again!"
