Chinook Wind specializes in on-location recording of musical groups, such as choirs, wind bands and orchestras, that may be difficult or inconvenient to record in a traditional studio setting

From these on-location audio recordings, we make custom CDs, either as one-of-a-kind keepsakes for the musicians themselves, or for sale by the sponsoring organization to the general public.

We have 14 years of experience recording large-group choral, wind and string ensembles, ranging from junior high school bands to 100-voice adult choirs and a regional symphony orchestra. But we also record small groups, chamber ensembles, and soloists.

Our “studio” is a van, and all of our equipment is especially chosen to be small, portable and highly mobile. We can set up for the typical job in about 90 minutes.

We record digitally, using either stereo DAT or multitrack DTRS tape. Our microphones are high-quality studio condensers, including a matched pair of Austrian-made AKG-414s.

Our primary recording tools are Tascam DA-30 digital audio tape recorders and Alesis HD24 24-track hard drive recorders. After recording, we edit our work on a Macintosh-based audio workstation running ProTools. (See a complete audio equipment list.)

When recording live on location, we usually also record to a backup CD-R recorder, so we can provide clients with an immediate record of the performance.

And if you prefer to record in session, rather than during a live performance, we can do that too. Categories:   CDs and Records | Production Services
