Max Honsinger – Mixing & Mastering

I’m a freelance engineer who works at a number of studios across London UK. Ive done mixing work for Bastille, the 1975, Years and Years and Jake Bugg to name a few and I’d love to hear your stuff!

Someone recently asked me what my hobbies were and I honestly dont have any apart from music. I do that literally all day every day and its awesome!

Mixing is crucial to getting that awesome sound. Setting the vocals at the right level, making the bass and drums to sit tight on that groove, finding the right reverb. However great your song is, without the right balance and processing you are not going to get a look in.
Having done live mixing work for Bastille, The 1975, Years and Years, and Jake Bugg as well as countless studio mixes. Ive got the ears, the equipment and patience to make you sound good. Whatever your style is, I’ve done it before and I probably loved it.

Why Analogue?

It just sounds great. its like adding thick velvety chocolate sauce on top of the cake you’ve made. My equipment?

  • A matched stereo pair of API 550b EQs (think Airy Highs and Pumping lows)
  • SSL 500series Bus Compressor (think smoothing over the each track like making shapes in mash potato)
  • Neve 1073 PreAmps (think adding that “je-ne-sais-qoi”)

Why Digital?

Well unfortunately I don’t have a 64channel Abbey Road style mixing desk so I have to use Logic. But I also have the best digital plugins from Waves, Sound toys, and iZotope to really amp things up and get you sounding awesome.

BOOM!
