Musicians and Musical Groups
"It was great working with Stephen because he is a musician and he really cared about our product. His equipment is up-to-the minute and the sound was great. Plus, he worked with us to do re-takes, had patience when we took time to make decisions, and in general went the extra mile to make sure we had a great product. I’m very pleased with the result, would do it again and certainly would recommend Stephen’s work to others." -- Ruth Huber, Co-Music Director, Rainbow Women's Chorus, San Jose, September 2004
As a well-known singer, songwriter, and musician with a long track record in the Bay Area music scene, Splendid's Stephen Duffy is in high demand as a producer, arranger, and sound engineer on projects ranging from full compact disc releases to single tracks and final pre-release tuneups.
Stephen is an expert with ProTools and other digital recording technologies, and is available to work in your studio of choice or in his own studio.
Splendid Productions also specializes in recording and producing choral and classical instrument groups. If needed, we bring our sound equipment to your rehearsal or concert space, and work with you to achieve the best performance and sound possible. This might include recording several rehearsals or just the actual performance; in either case, Splendid works closely with both performers and musical directors to ensure that the performers are comfortable and at their best, and that the final results are what the director or leader had in mind.
