Gavin and Peter have each performed countless recording sessions over the years as players. Also they have prepared the music in whatever format necessary as "arrangers" to enable other musicians to make the session productive and musical. Having access to the best players available and giving them the right information to perform with means more efficient studio time and therefore valuable savings for you.
At our facility on the Central Coast we provide a relaxed and comfortable studio environment with cutting edge technology in digital and analogue recording. A leafy courtyard setting offers a welcome break from the studio to chill and form new ideas. Where geography is a problem we work in tandem with a handful of select studios in Sydney and Newcastle to make your project less of a headache.
Certain genres of music are more "programming based" than others and indeed some demo projects may be on a tight budget. We offer top quality programming with superb VST instruments, keyboards and modules. State of the art sound libraries for drums, percussion, bass, Rhodes / Wurlitzer, pads, soundscapes, big band, orchestral and small chamber groups.
Caviar offers a full mastering service to give your mix impact, clarity and sparkle. You will be amazed how we can make a great mix sound even better. A full suite of mastering software will bring your work to life. This vital stage of the process also sorts the track order, track spacing, "normalises" sound levels and readies the product for commercial release.
A great cover and packaging is the final step in making your labours of love a commercial success. It is your window to the buying public and so is a crucial consideration. Caviar offers full photographic and graphic design services by people involved in the project from day one. Candid studio shots can be stored as we work on your project.
