working at studio grey...
we have a very comfortable and laid back environment to work in. there are to be no illegal substances on or near our property. there are two different types of recording that go on here; an individually tracked recording and live recording. in a tracked, or layered recording, we concentrate on each individual instrument, one at a time. this process usually starts with the drums, then moves on to bass, guitars, keys, programming, sampling and vocals. this insures that you get the sound you want out of each instrument and voice. live recording entails the entire band recording at the same time. this is, of course, a faster way of recording, but you tend to lose some of the quality of sound in the final product. we prefer a layered recording, as it is a true display of what we can construct. when you bring your project to studio grey, it is in it's most raw form. as we work and brainstorm to figure out the best sounds and most creative ideas for your music, we become a part of your sound, as do you, become a representative of studio grey's craftmanship. when you leave our doors, we want you to have in your hand, something you can be proud of. we will work to the best of our abilities to make that happen.
