I am a independent recording engineer and producer in Columbus, OH and do a lot of work at Relay Recording, Sonic Lounge, and Central City, always looking for good bands and musicians to record. I can also be found recording in cabins, churches, attics, bars, or any place with great acoustics multitracking studio quality on location. My mobile setup features 24 channels with high quality mic preamps paired with 24 channels of Radial Balanced Splitters for professional live show recording. I am a graduate of Capital University with a degree in Music Technology where I studied recording, jazz guitar, and composition.
I play bass and keyboards with Josh Fitzwater and The Shambles. We have just finished our debut full length album and play out a lot around columbus. I play guitar/keys/sing in The Polliwogs, which just recently has a myspace page at myspace.com/thepolliwogs. I am also playing guitar in the band jinx palm (myspace.com/jinxpalmmusic/). Other than that, I have been busy working on recording and producing other musicians. Recent projects include The Lost Revival, Flotation Walls, Couch Forts, The Nuclear Children, Josh Fitzwater and the Shambles, Saint Seneca, Take No Damage and Mark Flugge. Please check out my website at www.jayalton.com for samples of my recordings, mixes, and a full client list.
