recording
Pyramid Sound offers top notch recording at a very competitive price.
We offer extremely highly skilled engineers who have extensive knowledge in mic placement and acoustics while also being well versed in many genres of music.
In fact, they are all active, classically trained musicians.
This allows them to capture your performances in the most accurate and musical way.
Our live room sounds amazing and is also universally acknowledged as a very comfortable and inspiring place to perform at your best.
Add to these elements an array of vintage microphones run through top of the line cable and preamplifiers, and your tracks can not sound better.
editing
Aside from an aptitude in capturing your performances, Pyramid Sound's staff is also quite tech savvy.
Being well versed in all of the major DAW's, we will be happy to work with any tracks you may have to give them that professional sheen.
One of the most important parts of the recording process is having clean tracks so that there are no ticks or pops from the digital process.
Here at Pyramid we will work with you to be sure that your tracks have no artifacts and that all of your performances are exactly how you want them.
mixing
Pyramid Sound offers highly trained mix engineers who are tuned in to all styles of music.
They are very sensitive to the subtleties of each piece of music while still being attentive to the client's requests.
Using our modified Neve VR and a vast array of vintage and contempory effects, our engineers have the technical ability to create in the mix those ideas that you are hearing in your head.
mastering
In addition to state of the art recording facilities, we also sport our own mastering division.
We understand the value of having an album that is of a contemporary volume.
At the same time, we understand sound quality.
With a little musical sensitivity and top of the line limiters and converters, we are able to get your music up to today's standards in level without destroying the quality of your tracks.
reamping
Have you ever tracked a guitar at home only to wish you were playing through a Marshall stack?
Now you can send us your DI'd tracks and we will run them through any variety of our gear.
Aside from having a great variety of vintage amps on site, we have access to almost any amp or cab not on site that you could require.
We also have a special process for adding real drum ambience to your synthesized drums.
orchestration
Being trained musicians, we are more than happy to help with your part writing needs.
Whether it be charts for a hired band, or just adding a horn section to your song, we can both notate and write the parts.
This goes for all genres of music as we also have experience in classical composition as well as jazz arranging.
location
In addition to all of the in studio services offered, Pyramid Sound is also fully equipped to service your on location needs.
Whether it be a concert or a session, we can come to you with our mobile rigs and capture your performance.
We offer up to sixteen tracks with much of the same great gear that is offered in the studio.
Perfect for concerts at any of the local venues or local school festivals. Contact Us to learn more.
