TSM's mastering engineer, Steven Berson, is a graduate of
Boston's renowned Berklee College of Music, and has
studied the art of mastering directly with a number of other
experienced engineers.
Before reopening Total Sonic Media as a dedicated
mastering studio in 2006, Steve worked as the mastering
engineer at Europadisk, the last commercial facility in North
America to use the Neumann DMM vinyl record mastering
system.
He has worked on a wide variety of mixes (made in
everything from the highest end facilities to humble home
studios) and genres (ranging from rock, hip-hop, metal,
funk, americana, soul, experimental, dance, pop, world, jazz,
classical, folk, childrens music, gospel, etc.) on a near daily
basis, allowing him to develop the skills to hear what a track
needs to get it sounding its best, and to know what
processes will get it there.
An active musician for over 30 years, Steve also brings an
understanding of how important music is to the artist, and
always treats every job with the same amount of care as if it
was his own.
