About Jason
From 2003 to 2018, I was the house audio engineer at Fastback Studios, a professional recording studio in Seattle, WA. I produced, mixed, and recorded countless local and nationally touring musicians. I rewired the studio, maintained the gear, and taught audio classes. We also had a dedicated mastering room, which I used to master many singles and albums. In 2022, I landed a job as the Audio Facilities Engineer at Halo Studios (343 Industries). I got to record some legendary voice actors and work with some of the best sound designers in the business. I'm now an audio engineer at MediaLab, where we do dialogue editing, mastering, Foley, field recording, sound design, composition, and post-production for Microsoft/Xbox games and partner studios. I never stopped making records, and as I type this, I just finished a mix for a new single. I have been a recording musician for most of my life. I learned to record on 4-tracks, in garages, basements, churches, and clubs. I remember what it was like not knowing where to start, and being overwhelmed with options. Let me apply what I have learned over my career to help you develop new skills!

Private tutoring allows you to start at whatever level you're at and work towards your own goals. We study what you want to learn, at your pace. There are no pre-requisites, no judgement, and no pressure! I teach music production, mixing, mastering, EQ, compression, vocal tuning, MIDI, applying and using effects, noise reduction, levels, recording, and a lot more—just ask!
The DAW (digital audio workstation) I use every day is Pro Tools. I can teach total beginners through advanced levels. I have been using Pro Tools nearly every day of my life since 2003! I also use Ableton Live for composition, production, and performance. I use Logic Pro for composition and to import sessions from artists. I can help beginners in Ableton or Logic with DAW specifics, but can teach advanced levels of recording, mixing, and production techniques in any DAW.
I also use Izotope RX daily, and can teach noise reduction techniques for dialogue and mixing.

I've known Jason for decades as sound, and mixing engineer, a producer, a teacher, and an overall great person. I've always been interested in music since I was a kid learning guitar from him, to being able to intern for him at Fastback Studios where I learned the balance between what the books give you, and what real life random bunches of musicians give you. Lately He's been teaching me how to mix my own music and with just a few meetings i felt like I leveled up multiple years worth of education within just a couple of meetings. If you're looking to step up your production skills and navigate the music world with wizard like tricks that will prepare you for anything, I highly recommend going with Jason
I worked as an Intern for Jason for about a year and loved my time with him! He was passionate about music and if I asked for more information, I always got a detailed answer. His knowledge on compressors, mics, vintage equipment, and his ear for mixing is top tier. His live recording sessions at the studio were engaging, organized, and professional for his musicians. Every time. When he was doing more day to day mixing work, he always used language I understood or gave me vocabulary notes to jot before explaining so that I had the correct idea of how things were connecting together to repeat myself.
We still catch up and he answers my occasional question for his opinion on something, I’ve always looked up to him. I definitely would recommend him as a teacher.Jason is my literal phone-a-friend when it comes to anything technical when I am in the studio. The amount of knowledge he has from his decades of experience in the studio means he has the ability to make any problem or issue easy for me (and you) to understand. The actual GOAT.
I took Jason's studio recording engineering course when he was working at a professional recording studio which helped me understand the fundamentals of audio engineering and music production. He set me up for success working with indie artists in the community. Later on, Jason gave me personalized consultations on my mixes and production, always providing constructive feedback and concrete advice on how to improve my craft. Jason is deeply knowledgeable, thoughtful, patient, and always willing to share his experiences from the music industry and time in recording studios. His extensive technical and musical knowledge would help anyone seeking to improve their recording or production skills.
