   About Euphonic Masters

Euphonic Masters is a mastering facility that combines the highest quality equipment and years of experience to unlock the full potential of your music.

Brad Blackwood's musical career started in high school recording several different rock n' roll bands. Even as he attended college he was drawn to music, selling hifi equipment at local shops. The more he learned about the reproduction of music, the more his desire to work in the recording industry grew. He moved to Memphis and began honing his skills as an engineer at Ardent Recording Studios. After spending several years learning the ins and outs of recording and mixing, Brad turned his focus on resurrecting Ardent Mastering, a division which had closed years before. His success was immediate as he cultivated working relationships with producing and engineering greats such as John Hampton, Jim Dickinson, and Jim Gaines. "It was a great learning experience, being thrown into sessions with such amazing producers and engineers. These guys had worked with everyone in the book so I had to get it right the first time".

In 2002, Brad decided it was time to expand the service he offered his clients and the result is Euphonic Masters. His client base followed, allowing him to continue to work with a wide variety of artists including Fuel, the North Mississippi Allstars, All Out War, Nine Days, Sister Hazel, Lucero, Alvin Youngblood Hart, Big Daddy Weave, Geoff Moore, Oteil and the Peacemakers, and many more.

6 time Grammy nominee:
Alvin Youngblood Hart - Down In The Alley - 2003
BTR - Live - 2002
Smalltown Poets - Third Verse - 2000
North Mississippi Allstars - Shake Hands With Shorty - 2000
BTR - Choose Life - 1999
BTR - Amplifier - 1998

9 time Dove nominee:
Todd Agnew - Grace Like Rain - 2004
Justifide - Life Outside The Toybox - 2002
GS Megaphone - Out Of My Mind - 2002
BTR - Live - 2002
Smalltown Poets - Third Verse - 2000
Skillet - Live Worship - 2000
All Together Separate - ATS - 1999
Skillet - HYILYS - 1998
Smalltown Poets - Listen Closely - 1998

Euphonic Masters is outfitted with the latest in analog and digital technologies.

At the heart of the analog signal path is a custom Euphonic Masters designed mastering console utilizing the shortest possible signal paths. This console is incredibly clean, with no coupling capacitors or transformers and employing only teflon coated stranded silver wiring throughout. All controls to insert external analog processing such as Crane Song and Sontec equalization and Pendulum Audio and Crane Song compression are done with mil-spec switches - no relays. A sonically neutral monitoring section provides control to the main stereo speakers, Bowers & Wilkins Nautilus 802's, powered by Pass Labs amplification. Analog-to-Digital and Digital-to-Analog conversion is handled by Crane Song and dB Technologies, and all digital signals are connected either point-to-point or routed through the sonically invisible Little Labs digital audio router.

Analog tape playback is provided by a custom built Studer A80 mastering deck. Utilizing highly modified A800 repro electronics, it is one of only two machines hand built by Studer.

Euphonic Masters utilizes this mix of premium and custom built equipment to help you achieve your project's goals.

Thanks for adding me. I have this vision of what a good mastering engineer would be like and I even describe it to my friends ;-)

I've already found your page interesting in the blogs, comments and digging around to hear some of your work.

Have a nice weekend!

Hope all is well with you these days. You mastered our "Hotty Toddy" song, which our 1st video was too. We just recently released our 2nd video and would love to know what you think -- if you have the time. We sincerely appreciate you and your comments. Thanks again, The Dirt Brothers
