Improving your project one spoken word at a time
Working closely with ad agencies and creative directors for many years, Jeff knows how to schedule sessions with flexibility, take direction during the recording session when applicable - and maximize every moment of your time in the studio by being prepared and working efficiently. If recording via phone patch, expect delivery of your VO file (clean, edited and ready for your mixing engineer), within minutes of your session conclusion. Voice files are recorded in broadcast quality 48kHz, 24-bit mono .WAV or .AIF (unless otherwise specified) and either delivered via e-mail or to a private, password-protected link assigned to your account on his private server. Jeff's recording studio is fully equipped with Source Connect Pro, Phone Patch and Skype. Expect friendly, professional service and complete client satisfaction.

Both modern and professionally-equipped, his studio combines state of the art audio technology and digital sound tools with old school warmth and industry standard hardware. For microphones, Jeff uses either the Sennheiser 416 or Neumann designed MK-47 microphones going into either Focusrite 2i2, Avalon 737sp or Requisite PAL Plus MkIII preamps. Ultra quiet recordings are achieved using a Gold Series Vocalbooth and Jeff uses Adobe Audition for recording and editing. For directed sessions, he offers his clients the choice of Source Connect, Skype and Phone Patch for connection.
