My guest today is Case Newcomb, a recording and mix engineer/producer and winner of the Music Expo Mix Critique for his live remixing who is currently working out of the historic Hyde Street Studios in San Francisco. After seizing the opportunity to go back to school and switch careers, Case's audio career has been consistently on the rise. In the studio he turned Intern to staff engineer at Hyde Street Studios in just 6 months.
Case rose up the ranks in live sound astonishingly quickly as well. From mixing in small clubs to mixing at 1000+ capacity venues within his first year of doing monitors and FOH. He has recently put live sound on hold to focus on a full time studio career. We met at NAMM at our Recording Studio Rockstars, Working Class Audio, Mixdown Online, Audio-Issues meetup which was a blast!
Case has a great energy and is making some awesome records including artists like Nvrman, Möndo Freaks, Diablo Muerto, and Manos Lindas.
Thank you to Matt Boudreau for the introduction!
