Weddings & Receptions and other mobile dj gigs

Voice-Over Production: Whether you're looking for a fresh voice for a radio, television or website commercial or public service announcement, character voices for the same or for animation, an industrial narration, message-on-hold service announcements, audio book narrations, website streaming audio, along with fun projects like custom-tailored answering machine messages, I would relish the opportunity to earn your business.

I'm also venturing into jingle production and can produce great sounds for much less than you'd expect from a production house or agency. I utilize Cool Edit Pro 2.1 in my Home Studio with Electro-Voice Microphones. Overnight shipping on compact disc is available or free delivery via the internet using mp3 or mp3pro files. No project too big or too small and rates are negotiable.

 

 Recording Studio: My home studio can also be used for your projects, whatever they may be - a barber shop quartet, a love song for your sweetheart, a demo tape for a career in the media, or an audition cd for a stand-up comedy try-out or American Idol types of competitions. Maybe you have an old style radio play or some poems that were written long ago that were never voiced that you would like to send as a gift - the possibilities are limitless!

NEW! Mobile-Recording: Now we can bring a studio to you! If you have a quiet area in your home or business, we can set up to record your project on site! Great for recording your own radio spots, a public performance, karaoke get-togethers, audio for a web site or other multi-media, a speaking engagement - the possibilities are endless!

With a laptop computer loaded with Cool Edit Pro 2.0, we can go mobile with your recording project, utilizing studio microphones. Rates will vary depending on the equipment necessary to get the job done. Some of the final mastering may have to be done in my home studio, but for simple recording projects, the laptop, mics & stands and possibly a mixer, may be all we need, (in-studio rate is $25.00 per hour; base rate for mobile recording is $30.00 per hour). Accommodations and travel expenses may apply for out-of-town projects.

  Mark's Resume

Audio Restoration: So you have a an older reel-to-reel, 8-Track, vinyl album or micro-cassette recording, but nothing to play it on? I will "clean it up," turn it into a digital file that can be burned to a cd or another format of your choosing. You leave with your new audio enhanced recording and your original. I will accept mailed submissions, too, and will return your original, along with your improved recording. You should probably insure your mailing, and I will do likewise.

 

 Mobile Disc-Jockey & Karaoke: I love taking the show on the road! I'll arrive at your company party, Christmas party, wedding reception, class reunion or karaoke get-together with the music you want and the right system for the venue in use, including Bose Speakers and 1,500+ cds. $40.00 per hour plus a $50.00 set-up/tear-down fee, (and mileage and/or accommodations, if applicable) and your party is rockin,' swingin,' or singin'! Kindly check the Grouchy Mark Calendar for availability.

Audio Mixing and Music Locating & Identification: You've heard a song that you know a line or two from, but have no idea who the artist is? Give me a shot! Years of working in radio coupled with music being one of my passions lends itself well for me to figure out your mystery artists and titles. Need a mix for your dance troupe, ch eerleading squad or drill team? Let me know what you'd like mixed and I'll go to town....
