Digital Waters

Audio Mixing & Mastering Service in Hastings & Sussex

Welcome to Digital Waters

I provide a digital audio mixing and mastering service.
If you have recorded some songs and you’re not sure how to mix them then that’s where I can help.

Mixing 'in the box'

All songs are mixed and mastered ‘in the box’-on my PC.
I use various digital audio workstations to process, mix and edit audio.

Plugins & Software Used

I use a variety of different DAW software including FL Studio, Reaper, Presonus Studio One and Cubase.

Sounding more 'analog'

Digital Technology has revolutionised the way we make, record and mix music today.

It has virtually eliminated the ‘signal to noise ratio’ issue found when recording to tape.

Editing, copying and comping audio is faster with no loss of quality as found when bouncing to tape. You have ‘total recall’ of a mixdown session at the click of a mouse when mixing in the box. While it is possible to recall a mix on hardware consoles the process can be long and complicated.

However, tape and analog equipment does something to audio during the recording process-it imparts character in the form of compression and saturation to the recorded material.

I use a lot of plugins that emulate the ‘analog’ hardware such as compressors, channel strips and tape saturators to put some of that analog sound back into the digital audio output.
