PROCESS
Omer is comfortable producing/engineering in a range of methods and prefers to put the song and artist at the heart of his work, building his process around them. He is equally pleased to record full bands, capturing their native sound, or to work individually with singers, writers, producers, mc's, etc. helping them develop and arrange their tracks from inception. Logic, ProTools, samplers, drums machines and various mics & analog components are all available for use in his studio. A fanatical student of drum tuning and miking techniques, Omer is particularly confident in his ability to record great acoustic drum sounds. He is also a skilled guitarist with a professional ear and has cultivated a bullpen of superbly talented musicians to call upon at a moment's notice.
