Work history

Studio EngineerGorbals Sound
Glasgow, United KingdomFull Time
As a studio engineer, my duties were very broad, equipment and instrument
maintenance and process improvement. As a recording engineer, to deliver a very high standard of recorded audio, ready for the Mix stage. As a Mix engineer, to create a balance within the recorded multi-tracks and apply effects and processing in a very creative manner, working with the artist to translate any requests into reality.
My duty to artists was to engineer a recording to the highest standard and manage the full project from beginning to end. Timekeeping, efficiency and meticulous organizational skills have been integral in order to manage each project.
The biggest projects include working directly with Scotland’s biggest artists such as:
Biffy Clyro
Simple Minds
Susan Boyle
Belle & Sebastian
Eddi Reader
Craig Armstrong
Additionally, I have worked with many traditional Scottish
artists, namely Donald Shaw, Manran, Breabach and Iona Fyfe and many more. I have also worked with students from many schools and colleges which have been given the chance to come and experience a professional recording studio and record some of their own material.
As well as recording music I also have a wealth of experience recording vocals for audio books and theatre. Most recently with actor James McArdle (Star Wars, Mary Queen of Scots) for the audiobook adaptation of the play, “Angels in America”.
This has allowed me to perfect the audio standards for single voice audio media.

Owner, Producer, Recording, Mix and Mastering EngineerMcGuti's Productions
- Cowdenbeath, United KingdomFull Time
We were a productions company with our own recording studio, who worked with
musicians to record their music, raise their profile and promote their online presence.
Again, my creativity flourished under these circumstances, nurturing young, Scottish
talent from the ground up.
I also branched out the business internationally, which led me to work with artists
from the USA, Spain, Holland, Colombia and Turkey to name a few, mixing their multi-
tracks they would send via a cloud service.
Offering my services as a freelance engineer, I also worked in studios on multiple trips
to New York, Colombia and Turkey.
