Good Sir Con Artist Testimonial

"The songs sound great! It's a go!!! Everything came out great!"

John Rogers, Big Label Sound Studio

Usually, when I get a CD in, I have to make a number of drastic corrections to every song so that they all sound commercial industry standard quality. What usually makes it challenging is every song has entirely different sonic problems. I have to diagnose each problem and then correct it. That's my job and I do it well.

In this case, the raw song mixes submitted by Good Sir Con Artist sounded like what I receive from the major record labels. When mastering for a major record label, I only need to "enhance" the song mixes, not drastically change them. Needless to say, the mastering job came out excellent! G.S.C.A. I wish you the best!

John Rogers - Danceur Magazine Interview (July 2018)

Since the begining of his solo career in 2008, I mastered over 80 songs with the top French recording artist NYLS. Great pop dance music with a lot of remixes.

Here are the series of audio mastering software processors I've used on the over 30,000 songs I've mastered since 1999. In this video, I use mostly izotope ozone plugins because it's easier to explain using them. In real-life, I do mix in a few hardware pieces, and a waves plugin.
