Adam Barns - Audio Engineer / Producer

Adam Barns - Audio Engineer / Producer Experienced audio engineer of 20 years, working in several studios across Sydney. History of working with rock / heavy bands for EP's and singles.

ProTools expert and extensive recording and mixing credits. I love recording drums. I have been recording and mixing bands for many years and worked in several studios around Sydney NSW, as well as currently having my own mix facility based in Sydney where I have been mixing recent projects. I love recording and mixing heavy loud bands, especially punk, heavy rock, metal and indie bands. Songs tha

t have loud guitars and massive bass, pounding drums and passionate vocals, and bands that need production to make these styles of music sound great on recordings. I have been collecting my own arsenal of recording equipment over the years including a 2 inch 24 track Ampex tape machine, "Royer, Neumann, Beyer, Shure, AKG and Sennheiser" microphones, Neve preamps, high end valve preamps, analogue mixing desks and outboard gear, high end studio monitors and the latest in computer recording and editing. More importantly, I have a real sense of what loud bands want from a studio session, I am able to communicate with bands that make the process very open and easy especially for bands that may not have a lot of experience with tracking in a professional studio, or have had previous experiences that did not give great results. I play bass in 2 bands myself, and know that when you record it really helps to be in the studio with someone who has an understanding of the bands sound and production style. In the last 12 months I have been busy on some large projects, and now having completed them I am actively seeking more Australian bands to record in some of the studios I am working in. Please get in touch if you are a band looking at any kind of studio recording, I like to work closely with bands to make sure they exceed expectations and offering affordable rates to enable enough time to capture the sound of your band.

Super stoked to see this hit the world. It has been worked on across 3 different studios, seen a few different iterations and is now ready for release! One of my favourite acoustic guitar tones I've captured.

It’s been a minute!!! Finally, my first full band track ‘High’ will be out in the coming weeks via all music streaming platforms. Can’t wait to drop this and get back to playing some more gigs.

Gearing up to head into A Sharp Recording Studio for a full week of tracking a punk band. Dusting off the old protools tips, been mostly mixing this year and only touch 'tools during drum tracking. Am going to try and post some BTS vids.

Cool studio info!

The Foo Fighters’ debut album saw Dave Grohl transition from drum god to guitar hero, and he used some suitably rock solid gear to get there

This is hardly a full length video, but it's probably the most important message I have for this channel's primary demographic (artists) this year. ...

This is a biggie. Quite a revelation in tonight's video about the Eagles' current live performances.Referenced Performances - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v...
