Introduction: UP Recording Studio utilizes an analog signal path. Tracking is done to a RADAR, which is a hardware based digital recording system. Your music will travel through analog preamps, channels, compressors and effects during tracking and mixing, setting it aside from what can be done with a Digital Audio Workstation (software recording systems).

I've recorded with Simon at least three times, in a handful of sessions. Because it's out of a house, it's a chill place, and he gave me food and coffee. That's important, ask him about the free coffee. He also has a bunch of crazy shit on the walls, it's shenanigans. He needs to get that piano tuned, maybe a few more strange instruments laying around? (didgeridoo?)

I've worked with Simon on several records and he does a great job. Makes good suggestions, willing to put in extra work to get the right sounds and spent a lot of time working on singing technique with me on songs that I wasn't able to sing. Also doesn't nickel and dime on pricing like some studio owners. You can hear the results of my recent work with him at www.thedanburylie.com.

Our band went into UP Recording (for the 3rd time) to construct a full length album. About 11 visits and 13 tracks were done. This guy knows what he's doing, besides that, his years of experience can be a great help in deciphering those notes and passages of music in your mind. Helpful advice that is totally your choice to accept or not, tho I would say accept. All in all, a comfortable experience, amazing gear you prolly won't find at other studios, and Beastmaster was on once, choice movie.

Simon is a true professional and easy to work. We recorded 4 songs with Simon over a few months (we're slow) this year. Simon new exactly what the final recording should sound like. If your looking for auto tuned vocals and sampled drums go someplace else thats not his thing. But if you want raw rock and metal, real drums and a laid back atmosphere to record in Simon's your guy.

FAQs

How did you get started doing this type of work?
I have been a recording musician since the age of 17 and in my travels and education, found nothing that I enjoyed more than making and recording music. After years on the performance end, I settled down in CT and decided to start recording so I can keep working with music. I had the right people around me and with their help and support, I built the studio and gained experience in it's operation.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
If you are not getting a recommendation from someone who you trust, listen to any samples of audio coming from a studio that you are researching. Understand that in music and any other form of art, in the end, you are going to represent your own individuality in the end product, so take in the sound samples with that in perspective. Also when it comes to working on a record, the more time you spend the better it will be. Be $$ smart and put in most of your time in preparation. If a studio offers to help with the preparation (as I do free of charge) take advantage of that.
What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
A good recording is small in comparison to a good song. Trust your engineer/studio, but put your time in to your song writing, arranging and your performance rehearsals. While some may read this from a negative angle and interpret that studios and engineers have little value, it is actually stating they are very important for the artist to do their job to the fullest.
