Recording Sessions
Professionally recorded instrumental performances for game and film scores
The Process
Composers consult with me about their project, send me stems, demo recordings, performance notes and/or sheet music; I then create clean, expressive, and properly gain-staged instrumental performances to be integrated into their score.
The Studio
All recordings are made in a soundproofed recording booth using professional equipment - no ambient or fan noise, reflections, or unwanted colorations.
Instruments
I am also proficient at the instruments listed below:
• viola da gamba • suling • daf • tar • guzheng • guqin • dizi • oud • nylon, steel string, 12 string, and slide guitars • ukulele • banjolin • bowed banjo • morin khuur • Irish whistles • fretted cello • accordion • udu • assorted percussion • voice •
Instruments can be recorded in mono or stereo.
Cubase is used for multi-tracking and to provide audio in any format, bit depth and sample rate. Pre-processing, including compression, eq, and gain staging can be applied.
Testimonial
“Chris is the ideal remote session-musician. Virtues I would highlight: he plays a plethora of instruments, recordings are of great quality, fantastic musicability (captured the energy I wanted to convey really well), super responsive, easy to get going with “play the MIDI track” without needing scores. He made the otherwise synth-heavy soundtrack come to life, and the film directors loved it. Look no further; hire Chris. ”
