Part of what we do here at DGT involves listening to hours of new music every week. I am always interested in the process, where things are recorded and who was at the helm doing the engineering. Then we focus on the tools, the instruments and software choices, all of it. There seems to have been a trend in the digital age where we are going back to school to learn how to record a four piece rock band, and maybe that’s a good thing. But sometimes we, who fancy our-selves as producers get so caught up in the technology and our ever-expanding consciousness that the music is masked with tricks and effects that even we don’t remember how or why we did it. When I heard samples of the works we are about to discuss I thought the studio and the engineer had done a great job keeping the music real and I wanted to know more about them.
Robert Fox is the Engineer-producer and owner at The Hive Recording Studio in Seattle. Robert has over twenty years experience in the business and is no newcomer to the DAW or digital audio workstation computer-based recording. Robert also has an extensive background as a software engineer so he understands more about the process of the 0’s and 1’s than most of us will ever know. With over 1400 square feet of room to make great music and stretch out in, Fox has created an ideal environment for nearly any type of project or genre of music. His array of software and equipment is so vast, including Pro Tools 8.0, Sonar 7 Producer Edition, Abelton Live 7, Cakewalk Kinetic and so much more we haven’t the space to mention today but we will direct you in a few moments to Robert’s website where you can see for yourself. But that’s just the beginning because he’s got kick-ass guitars, drums, keyboards and amps that you won’t believe! And Robert’s clients may use any and all the equipment at the facility if they should choose. And if you bring your own axe to play, that vintage Gibson Super 400 and you don’t want to drive it home at 3 in the morning, no worry – video and security is provided 24-7 by ADT.
So there a few of the important elements to a great record making experience…an accomplished engineer-producer who can bring out the best in his clients and knows how to use the proper tools and gear to make it happen in an environment which is conducive to the flow of the music from the head and heart of an artist. Knowing how to bring the spirit of the song out from this artist is as important as the tuning of the instruments, if not more so.
We found Robert Fox very easy to talk to and frankly we were not planning such a lengthy piece here. It’s just that Robert, in about 60 seconds proved that he truly is a good listener and loves to help people to reach their expectations while working on their projects at The Hive Recording Studio. He has rates that are very fair and is really willing to work with people on scheduling and special needs. Go to The Hive Recording Studio website and follow links to their clients and listen for yourself. The band,
“ Custom “ and solo artist Larry Murante are prime examples of the diversity and quality and whose music display the abilities of Mr. Fox . I highly recommend that if you are anywhere near Seattle Washington and you are thinking of making an album or a great demo, contact Robert Fox at 206-249-8942
