I like to work with the amazing engineers at Infrasonic Mastering.

Hey, I'm PaCO!
My love of recording and producing music began at the age of 15 when I went to my first recording studio. I was captivated by the experience and wanted to learn everything I could about recording music.
That curiosity took me to Nashville after I listened to The Raconteurs album “Consolers of the Lonely” I read the album credits and saw the name Vance Powell credited as Mixer, I knew then that was the man I wanted to learn from.
After interning for Vance I began my career as an assistant engineer for Dave Cobb, then became the mix assistant to F. Reid Shippen and finally joined Jay Joyce as part of his engineering staff.
The mentorship and training I received from these incredible producers set me up for the opportunity to record and mix Sturgill Simpson’s “Sound and Fury” which garnered me a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Album in 2020.
Learning the craft of Music Production is a life long pursuit, knowing I still had more to learn I was given the chance to be the engineer for one of my musical hero’s Woody Jackson with whom I have engineered multiple albums, soundtracks, and film scores.
your music deserves to shine
As a musician I understand it can be difficult to trust someone else to mix and master your music. I approach every project with a desire to understand your vision and the intentions that went into creating your music. My goal is to always put your voice first during the mixing process.

From Vision to Final Mix, I Help You Hear What You’ve Been Missing
My approach to mixing is to always chase the sound my clients are seeking.
Oftentimes as musicians we have wild creative ideas that require an understanding of where to break the rules, as an engineer I have always enjoyed this challenge as it leads to creating art that is truly unique and unafraid of current trends.
Great art invokes emotion and that is what I strive to showcase in my mixes, the true emotion of the music. If we have the opportunity to work together, know that your vision is always the focus of my service.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Some of my most frequently-asked-questions:
Q. What's the typical timeline for mixing?
I will deliver you a mix within 3 business days of our scheduled start date, after the first mix we will begin revising anything you would like, I guarantee a response within 1 business day of receiving revision notes.
Q. How does pricing work?
Pricing is per project and based on the amount songs I will be mixing and if you need any additional engineering services
Q. Why do I need mastering?
Mastering is an important final step in finishing a recording. The mastering engineer ensures that your music sounds great on any format where your music is released (Streaming, CD, Vinyl).
Q. What if I’ve had a bad experience with a mixing engineer before?
Unfortunately, that’s common.
Most issues come down to poor communication, unclear expectations, or mismatched taste. I make the process collaborative and transparent, so you always know what’s happening.
Q. Why should I hire you? What makes you unique?
My expertise in recording and mixing was refined in professional studios under grammy winning producers and engineers. The mindset of putting the artists needs and desires first is founded in the on-the-job education I have received from the mentors I have worked with.
