SERVICES
TRACKING
Immerse yourself in your music. Forget the outside world exists and just have fun doing what you love. I'll be there to capture it.
MIXING
Whether we've tracked it together, you did it yourself, or it was done at another studio, I'll take your tracks and bring the best out of them.
Producing/Arranging
Songwriting/Lyrics aren't my strong suit. I am, however, very good at taking other peoples ideas and helping to grow them into complete, coherent songs!
Reamping
Record your di guitars on your interface at home, and I will reamp them through either my amps, or yours. This allows you to perfect your performance on your own time, so all we have to worry about is getting the right sounds. I also have a dynamount for precision microphone placement
Drumming
Capturing drum sounds is how i fell in love with recording in the first place. I consider myself to be a drum recording specialist. I can record your performance, or I can play drums on your project if you need a drummer.
Vocal Tuning
Sometimes we all need a little help. Take your performance to the next level and achieve radio-quality perfection.
MY WORK
ABOUT
If you've made it this far down, I want to thank you for checking out my studio. For a long time, I ran this studio like a business that took on all customers that came through the door. I've had a lot of great experiences and learned a lot along the way. Recently, I've been trying to focus on finding bands/artists that match up with me and my studio both artistically and stylistically. I am trying to have my studio be more of a place of artistic expression, rather than a place of business. Primarily, I am focused on recording rock/alternative/heavier music that features real guitars, bass, vocals and real drums. I am certainly open to other styles of music as well. My goal is to capture the sound of humans playing instruments in a room. I want to treat pro tools as much like tape as I can. I have some cool preamps (vintage Yamaha "Japaneve" M916, Great River) going into my Lynx Aurora 24 n audio interface. I also have a wide variety of different mics to choose from, as well as multiple drum sets, guitars, amps, and pedals that can be used. I am a bit of a gear collector so i am always adding new pieces.

If you are interested in working together to make your music a reality, please contact me through the form below. I highly encourage you to include a demo of the project you want to work on. It can be as basic as a phone recording, I just like to have an idea of what I am going to be working with.

"I have been working with Tyler at Pogo Recording Studio recently and I am beyond impressed. Tyler is professional in every sense of the word. He conducts himself with respect for the artists time by always staying on task and delivering exactly what is asked for. He is on time with the right gear to get the job done as well as the ability to build new gear if needed. Tyler is a carpenter and an electrician as well as an audio engineering wizard. If you need recording, mixing, or mastering give Pogo Recording Studio a call. You will be glad you did. He’s a true WIZARD worthy of King Arthur and the Knights of the round table."
