Welcome to the Carrig Sound News Page!
FREE
PRE-PRODUCTION MEETING!
Visit the Studio to get a feel for the space, and listen to other recordings by Carrig
Sound.
Meet the Sound Engineer and Producer (optional) to discuss all the wishes, ideas
and specific requirements you have for your project. This way we can give you an
accurate quotation, so you will know exactly what your project will cost before
you start.
Then when you come in to Record, Mix and Master, the sessions will go
smoothly and enjoyably and we can all concentrate on the most important thing -
your music.
Why
not take us up on our
FREE MASTERING OFFER
to Master half of one of your songs, so you can hear whether you like what we do, BEFORE parting with any cash?!
It's simple to send us a song, have half of
it Mastered and download it again. Then you can compare and contrast the
results in the comfort of your own home.
Please note, this is a 'one-off' offer to anyone (soloist, group or band) who has not used
our Mastering services before. Email us for more information.

SOUND ENGINEERING GRINDS
Liam provides private tuition with an emphasis on
hands-on experience for students, covering all
areas of sound recording, music technology, mixers, microphones, EQ, MIDI,
sampling, monitoring, acoustic treatment, studio wiring, sound design (for film)
and any other area you may be having difficulties in getting your head around.
Ideal for those
with home studios wanting to get more from their equipment, or those currently studying in college
- especially classroom-based courses where not much hands-on practice is
offered.
FTP SITE FOR MASTERING
Carrig Sound have an FTP SITE, which
means that you can simply upload your song/s via the net for Mastering. We
return them the same way, so you don't even need to step outside your front door!
If you are interested, please email us for further information and instructions
on how to do this.
PLUS: Carrig Sound continue to do
Location
Recordings for Classical, Traditional and Pop music, as well as recording
rap, poetry and speech.
We have also had collaborations with Cork
filmmakers, where Carrig Sound work on the Post Production Sound
Design for films. We continue to do Sound Design for Radio
(including Radio advertisements).
Please do keep
checking in to see what's new!
