Hi and welcome to Western Front's all new 'Sound Advice' page. This is where musicians and recording/mixing entusiests can learn and exchange ideas on all areas of the Sound Industry, in particular music recording and live mixing.
My name is Aidan Barton, I’ve been working full time in the music industry as both a recording engineer/producer and as a live mixer since 2000. Having studied sound at WAAPA (West Australian Academy of Performing Arts) from 1997-2000 i opened my own recording studio, Sovereign Studios, in 2001. Since then I have engineered and/or produced successful releases for
The Berzerker, Pathogen, Voyager, Vespers Descent, Plague, The Furor, I Killed The Prom Queen, Miles Away, Alleged, From The Ruins as well as mixed and mastered a truckload of other bands.

Hate Eternal, The Black Dahlia Murder, Daysend, Psycroptic, I Killed The Prom Queen, Stronger Than Hate, Vespers Descent and
Kin and have mixed locally for
