LONDON MIXING STUDIO


Welcome to my studio specialising in audio mixing and mastering. If you are serious about your music then you already know that mixing is the all-important step in your production that is going to make or break your releases. My creative process combines more than twenty years of arranging, recording, mixing and mastering experience using both analogue and digital equipment to get the best out of your tracks.

My mixing is creative, not just technical. It is a production process where I immerse myself in your music and offer you suggestions on the necessary steps to take to fully develop your own unique sound. My experience as a record producer, musician and songwriter plays a big role in this process, allowing me to approach mixing from different points of view. I want my mixes to convey emotion and engage the listener. Any genre of music is welcome in my mixing studio.

STUDIO EQUIPMENT


The studio’s gear includes a Trident console along with Drawmer, TLAudio, Oram outboard gear, SPL, dbx, TC6000 reverbs and an extensive collection of professional software plug-ins. In addition, you will find a large collection of analogue effects, from filters to analogue tape and boutique guitar pedals. All mixes are checked on eight different types of high-end studio monitors and speakers. The combination of my extensive experience, skills, creativity and the specifications of the mixing studio itself, allows me to mix any genre of music. Please do not hesitate to get in touch and, based on your budget, we will decide together what will be the best mixing solution for your music.

RE-AMPING


Sometimes a guitar player can struggle to find a convincing guitar sound for a specific track. Some guitar players use virtual amplifiers in the computer environment due to their immediate convenience, but these software emulations quite often lack a full and balanced sound. Re-amping is the process of sending a clean guitar track (usually recorded via DI or straight into a sound card/mixer) to effects and an amplifier and then re-recording it back. I am a guitar player and understand really well what guitarists look for when it comes to sound. My approach to re-amping is creative, as it is for my mixing. Through the use of my large collection of analogue pedals and valve amplifiers, I will produce a guitar sound that not only will suit your tracks, but will enhance them. Re-amping your guitar(s ) will ensure a massive difference in the quality of the mix.

DRUM REINFORCEMENT


Strong drums are essential for a strong mix. It makes an immense difference to understand right from the start of the mixing process whether or not your drums, either acoustic or electronic (or both), are good enough or are in need of some help to achieve a convincing sound quality. Reinforcement can be accomplished by means of added samples, a live hi-hat, live electronic drums or complete replacement of the drum parts with a live acoustic drum kit if necessary. I will advise on this matter prior to the start of any mixing process.

I cannot say enough good things about Francis. He is absolutely fantastic. He doesn't just mix and master your tracks, he gets inside them, and brings out vibes and tones you didn't know about, but not in an overbearing way, in a way that completely takes on board what you want. Seriously, if you are lucky enough to get the opportunity to work with Francis, take it. You won't regret it.

There aren't enough stars here to justify the work of Francis Gorini. He is far away the best collaborator on music production I've ever worked with. His ideas, work ethic and standard of finish is fantastic. He actually listens to the music and to the creative direction of the client and works in tandem to achieve the highest quality results.

I have had the pleasure of working with Francis and the experience and the results were top quality. I have worked in studios all over the world and I have never worked with someone who pays so much attention to detail that in turn brings the original intention of the song and the artist to life. Francis spends the time getting to know you as an artist which is unique in itself.

I'd like to thank Francis for the amazing work provided, the process for mixing and mastering was very smooth. Francis really listen's to your ideas and it is a great help to bounce ideas off when you are producing your own music. I'm very happy with the final result.

CAW - Craig Wingate

My mixing and mastering experience with Francis was top notch. He helped transform my songs from something that was sonically out of balance to something that could be used in a movie or be played on BBC Radio 1. I’ve already recommended London Mixing Studio to others and I’ll continue to do so.

A consummate professional, working with Francis is very easy. The perfect blend of unbiased advice and a deft understanding of the trade, a 5 point scale rating doesn't really do the whole experience justice. Enlist now, you will not be disappointed.
