Production
We’ll help you produce your project, no matter where you are in the process.
Don’t have a band, or need other musicians? JBS is well-connected in the Asheville area music scene. Just ask, and we’ll put the call out to assemble whatever extra talent you need to make your project pop.
Recording
We’re equipped to comfortably track a 4-5 piece band — think: drums, bass, guitar, keys, vocals — and more if folks are feelin’ friendly! We can capture unlimited tracks—and up to 32 simultaneously.
Performers are provided custom stereo headphone mixes for optimal and enjoyable monitoring during tracking.
Recording session configurations are stored for quick recall in case we need to set back up in the future and pick up where we left off.
Mixing
JBS performs all mixing “in the box”, utilizing standard effects plugins and techniques. This allows for instant settings recall for future sessions.
All projects are backed-up and preserved—so if in a few years you need a different mix, we can pull it right up and make any changes you want.
Mastering
Juice Box provides in-house mastering to ensure your tracks sound optimal on streaming services, CDs, and other mediums. We can also master for specific platforms, including audio books (e.g. Amazon Audible), broadcast video, and more.
Have a preferred mastering house? No problem! We happily interface with external mastering partners — Here are a few we routinely work with: Airshow Mastering, Oasis Mastering, The Kitchen Mastering, Whitewater, etc.
Gear & Stuff
Juice Box utilizes modern, reliable, industry-standard digital gear that provides for accurate capture and efficient work-flow. Our main console/interface is a Midas-pre-amp-equipped Behringer X32 console.
Digital audio workstation (DAW) software used is Cakewalk Sonar by BandLab.
Microphones include sE Electronics, Audix, Shure, Rode, AKG, and more. If you’ve got a special mic you like to use, bring it along—we’ll be happy to use it!
We’ve also got lots of keyboard gear on-hand (incl. Nord Stage 3, Roland VR09/VR730 (organ), Yamaha S90/XS, Hammond Leslie), misc. other instruments, percussion, etc.
