Client Review on Allusion Studios

Feedback:

First off, let me state my bias. I've worked with Jim Pavett and Allusion Studios since 1996 and have recorded 7 CDs there. I've been so pleased with my experience there that I haven't checked out the other available facilities in town. There's been no need to. Jim is a Grammy award winning recording engineer who is able to capture the optimal true sound of every instrument recorded. The equipment is first rate and his knowledge and mastery of them is top notch. He is constantly upgrading the studio and stays well versed in the current recording practices. The studio itself is a former office building which Jim has painstakingly converted into a recording studio. There are isolation rooms for vocals, guitars and bass which compliment a larger live room in which drums and piano can be recorded. But the real allure of working at Allusion is Jim himself. An accomplished musician in his own right, Jim is able to offer ideas on how every instrument should sound and, to a degree, what they should play. His quick ear for melody and harmony allow him to guide the artist in recreating those spontaneous, improvised melodies until they are both technically sound as well as creatively satisfying. In summary, the recording experience at Allusion is a complete experience that leaves the client satisfied and eager to record the next project there. I know I am.
