My History

2005 - 2006:
I attended Poppyhill School of Recording from Sept 2005 - May 2006. I studied for a City & Guilds Diploma in sound engineering parts 1 + 2.
Here I got a lot of hands on experience with live sound, stage setups, mic placement, live mixing, and live recording. The second part of the course was studio recording. I recorded a full live band at Poppyhill recording studios for local act Nugget. I acted as head engineer, I set up all live rooms, got a live mix, recorded to pro tools, edited, mixed, mastered and produced my first full recording here.
After completion of the couse I did live work at the 06 Festival of World Cultures in Dun Laoire. I acted as live engineer at the Kingston for 5 acts from across Europe and South Americia, 4 totally different stage setups and music styles each night put everything I learned at Poppyhill into practice.


2006 - 2007:
During 2007 I educated myself futher into the sound engineering world. I began to acquire all the equipment and information necessary to build my own recording facility for local bands, solo artists, & DJ`s. I also educated myself by reading all the up to date audio and sound engineering magazines and books, while using Protools and recording on a daily basis. By the end of 2007 I was ready to advertise my new recording studio in Straffan.


2008 - 2009:
To date i have recorded over fifty tracks for various musicians, DJs, and journalists from my recording facility with excellent results. Over the past 5 years since Poppyhill I have:-
Learnt how to have the paitence and experience to deal with all sorts of clients, musicians, and various customers.
Learnt how to work with lots of various stage set ups and music styles whilst under pressure.
Toned my ear to be very precise with EQ, compression, various micing techniques and mic placements, various signal and effects processors, and different recording techniques.
Gained a lot more confidence to record, edit, mix, produce in different styles.
Gained a lot more experience along the way by working with other engineers and musicians.
I have just finished working at the Arthurs day celebrations for the culture nights in Dublin city. I worked as head engineer for the weekend at three seperate locations around the city, including, an African tribe music setup outdoors in the Temple Bar area, and instrumental music, plays, and a night of speeches at Dublin City Council offices.
I am currently working freelance recording bands, and running live gigs, booking venues for bands and DJs (Bondi Beach, The Late Lounge, The Village). I am promoting and advertising these gigs as well.

During these years i have also been in full-time employment, mainly as a photocopier service engineer for Irish Business Systems LTD. I have also been in many different bands and can play several instruments.

I am very determined, hard working, and self reliant. I am not afraid of working long hours under pressure. I believe I have gained enough experience to start working professionally as a junior technician in live work or studio setups. If you would like me to post you a copy of my recordings you may contact me below.
