General information:
Knobville is a 32 track ProTools studio. Small in size, big in sound, this studio specializes in small bands and songwriters
who need a comfortable environment to craft a quality demo or CD product. Studio rate is $25 per hour. Day rate negotiable.

I do not currently provide mastering service, but can recommend some excellent Seattle area master houses that I work with.

If you need assistance with production, additional tracking of guitar, bass, vocals and percussion, I provide that as well.
To complete your CD project, I also offer extensive graphic design services. See my main website for samples of my
portfolio at www.pixelstogo.com., or click the thumbnail below for CD graphics samples.
