Mixing
Mixes that compete.
We believe that every artist can, and should, have access to the same quality mixing and processing that the big artists use!
We can take the raw multi-tracks you’ve recorded at home, here at Fantastic Rain, or at any other studio, and turn them into highly professional and radio-ready mixes.
Then all the mastering engineer needs to do is give it that extra sparkle.
Production
Here to help or just get out the way and let you do your thing!
A producers job is to do whatever it takes to bring your creative vision to life.
We can help with compositions, arrangements, melodies and lyrics by bouncing ideas back and forth, but still ensuring that the music is still ‘you’.
Or we can just leave you be and let the talent and creativity flow whilst giving you access to everything you need to bring your creation to life.
Vocal Editing
What is vocal editing?
Vocal editing is the art of creating the best overall vocal performance from multiple recorded takes, fixing any technical problems like background noise, adjusting the timing of phrases, compensating for volume discrepancies where necessary, removing silence, adding crossfades, and tuning.
Vocal editing is one of the most important steps in the process of audio production. The vocalist in a song is the focal point, drawing the listener in. The vocal defines the melody, tells the story, and hopefully evokes an emotional response. At least that is the goal. This all begins with a singer, a great performance, and a quality recording.
Drum Programming
Logic Pro X Drummer
Drummer allows us to add virtual drummers to your project, using Drummer tracks.
You can choose drummers from different genres—Rock, Alternative, Songwriter, R&B, Electronic, Hip Hop, and Percussion. Each drummer comes with its own acoustic kit or electronic drum kit and a distinct playing style.
Every parameter can be adjusted to get the exact sound you want!
Re-amping
Why Reamping Is Useful
As the name suggests, reamping is the act of capturing a both a clean D.I (Direct Injection) and your amped sound simultaneously, enabling you to play it back through any guitar amp at a later date and re-record that tone.
If you’re not happy with the original tone you recorded, you are able to keep the same performance but tweak the tone of the amp, try out different pedals and experiment with multiple microphones and placement.
