Paulo Okoro came by for a session this week with his crew of cinematographers to lay down a new acoustic pop track. Check back soon for some clips from the music video!
"Blue Room Productions took my project from a somewhat dry but hopeful mix and tuned it into a diamond piece. I'm extremely pleased at the level of professionalism and would recommended anyone to hire their services. They are my one stop shop to getting my mixes turned into radio quality material. The turn around was fast but the quality reflected hard, knowledgeable and dedicated work. Because of them I am getting appraisals that my album will be a prime contender for a Grammy in its category. Thanks Blue Room!"
Betty Boo writes, “Working with Conrad was a very good experience. He understood exactly what we were looking for and translated what we wanted our audience to hear through the mastering of our mixes perfectly. If you’re looking for quality and industry standards, Blue Room Productions will produce it for you.” Check out Betty Boo's website for more info about her and her music.
Matt Hines (Betty's engineer, producer, and music composer) writes, “Conrad has a talented set of ears and the skills and experience necessary to translate what he hears into reality. I was extremely impressed with the attention that he gave to the details of our mixes. He did an exceptional job in listening to what I, as a producer, wanted out of the mastering process. He is not only knowledgeable on the current industry standards of mastering, but has the skills to produce the expected sound. I highly recommend Conrad and Blue Room Productions and look forward to working with Conrad in the future.”

This mixing board directly integrates with Pro Tools, allowing the flexibility of mixing either with a mouse and keyboard, or with a more traditional hands-on approach with actual faders and knobs. The C24's 5.1 surround monitoring abilities bring our clients the ability to have their audio recording mixed and mastered in stereo or in a 5.1 surround format.
