Our digital workflow ensures maximum flexibility and sound quality throughout the tracking, mixing and mastering stages of recording.

Richard has a first class degree in Music Technology, and many years of experience in studio recording. He has worked with a huge variety of artists, in a wide range of styles, and is dedicated to realising the full potential of every recording.
He has all the skills, understanding and diligence required of a professional studio engineer, but what sets him apart in this role at Orpheus Studio is that he is also a very talented musician with a wealth of session experience. He plays many instruments to a high standard (you can hear some of his work on the 'Listen' page), and he will happily lend his skills to your recordings. Richard also has a thorough grasp of musical theory thanks to his years studying classical music, and can offer as much or as little input in composition/arrangement as you desire.

Our comfortable, relaxed performance setting shines through in our recordings, with a musicality and feel that cannot be replicated in less-dedicated setups.
