Description: Stephen Kerrison is a mastering engineer based out of his Liverpool studio, Tall Trees Audio Mastering, whose credits include work for Moshi Moshi Records, Maple Death Records, PRAH Recordings, Rocket Recordings, and Human Worth Records. His many years experience as a working musician, coupled with an almost obsessive, life-long love of music has earned him a skill set that enables him to work empathetically alongside musicians with full understanding and respect for their artistic process and vision.This approach and dynamic has resulted in his reputation as a trusted mastering engineer growing steadily over the past few years. Stephen knows from personal experience how much making a record means and how much it takes, and as such treats mastering every record with nothing but the utmost care and deference.A champion of the left-field, but absolutely partial to a pop banger, the intersection between the creative and technical is where Stephen feels most at home.IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL LEARN ABOUT:Enjoying music as a consumerWhy mastering can be easier than mixingGetting started as a mastering engineerFinding ways to force objectivityMastering with a hybrid setupWhy no one cares what gear you ownAttended vs unattended sessions: What are the benefits of each?Demystifying the “dark art” of masteringClient interaction: Creating an enjoyable experience for your customersHow a subwoofer will make your main monitors work and sound betterTo learn more about Stephen Kerrison, visit: https://talltreesaudiomastering.com/Notable gear mentioned:iZotope RX - https://sweetwater.sjv.io/xkyR2xHA Symph EQ: https://sweetwater.sjv.io/q4ABygNeumann KH 310: https://sweetwater.sjv.io/R51WKaNeumann KH 750: https://sweetwater.sjv.io/KjJWgALooking for 1-on-1 feedback and training to help you create pro-quality mixes?Check out my coaching program Amplitude and apply to join:https://masteryourmix.com/amplitude/  Want additional help with your music productions?For tips on how to improve your mixes, visit: https://masteryourmix.com/ Download your FREE copy of the Ultimate Mixing Blueprint: https://masteryourmix.com/blueprint/ Get your copy of my Amazon #1 bestselling books:The Recording Mindset: A Step-By-Step Guide to Creating Pro Recordings From Your Home Studio: https://therecordingmindset.com The Mixing Mindset: The Step-By-Step Formula For Creating Professional Rock Mixes From Your Home Studio: https://masteryourmix.com/mixingmindsetbook/ Check out our Sponsors:Download Waves Plugins here: https://waves.alzt.net/EK3G2K Subscribe to the show:Apple Podcasts: <a...
