Pro Drummer/Recording Engineer, Editor and Mixer

Hi, I’m Jon,
I am a professional drummer, audio editor, mixer, and studio owner with over twenty years of experience in music, post-production, and performance-based recording.

I run a fully equipped studio where I work with artists, bands, and creators to deliver clean, powerful, release-ready audio.

My most recent projects in this room include: recording drums for Sal (War), recording bass for Roy (Downset), mixing audio for film projects, three full albums, and mixing Lou Gramm’s live recordings.

I’m comfortable moving between music, post, and performance-driven sessions, and I bring the same level of care and professionalism to every project.

What I do:

- Audio editing (dialogue, podcasts, music, cleanup, tightening)
- Mixing for music, live recordings, film, and video
- Voice-over and dialogue post-production
- Sound polishing for release, broadcast, and online platforms
- Session work and remote production from my studio

What you can expect:

- Clear, honest communication
- Reliable turnaround times
- Clean, professional sound that translates everywhere
- A musical, story-first approach (not over-processed, not sloppy)
- Revisions to make sure it’s right

I work in high-pressure, real-world production environments, so I understand deadlines, expectations, and the importance of getting it right the first time. I don’t use one-size-fits-all presets. Every project gets treated based on its content and goals.

If you need your audio to sound polished, professional, and ready for release, send a message and let’s talk about your project.

Work Terms

Project Scope:
All projects are based on the scope discussed before work begins (number of tracks, length, services needed, delivery format, etc.). Any changes or additions may require a revised quote.

Turnaround Time:
Turnaround time is agreed upon before starting. Rush delivery is available when possible and may include an additional fee.

Revisions:
Revisions are included to make sure you’re happy with the result. Revisions apply to the original scope of work and do not include new performances, new edits, or major changes to the project direction.

File Delivery:
Final files will be delivered in the agreed format (WAV, AIFF, MP3, stems, etc.). Session files can be provided upon request if agreed in advance.

Payment:
Payment is required through Guru according to the agreed terms before final delivery of high-resolution or watermark-free files (unless otherwise agreed in writing).

Client Responsibilities:
You agree to provide all necessary files, references, and notes before work begins. Delays in providing materials may affect delivery timelines.

Creative Process:
Audio is subjective. I will always aim for the best possible result based on your references and goals, but minor creative differences are part of the process and handled through revisions.

Ownership & Usage:
Once payment is complete, you own the final delivered audio. I reserve the right to use excerpts of the work for my portfolio unless otherwise agreed.

Communication:
Clear, timely communication on both sides ensures the best results and fastest turnaround.

Performance Approval
For drum recording projects, one performance revision pass is included. Major arrangement changes or multiple new performances may require an additional fee.
