Music Recording-Mixing-Mastering

We offer the full spectrum of skills needed to create & produce world-class mastered songs, albums, voice-over narration, and sound-tracks. Record, mix, and master on our pristine signal chains with up to 192mHz bandwidth multi-track for the highest fidelity possible.

EMBS is committed to and experienced in getting the most natural and well blended sound for your ADR and VO sessions. We have a collection of mics commonly used in field recording, and are conscientious about recreating the environment that was recorded on location for the most seamlessly blended ADR. Incorporating a tool called VocAlign, which lines up the ADR with the original dialog, the process is made much easier and more efficient for all involved.

As a musical team, we are capable, passionate, and enthusiastic about writing and recording music for film. We seek the best possible balance between music and sound design for evoking the mood of your project. We have over 40 years combined experience creating music for all types of occasions. Also we are well connected with a variety of Bay Area musicians that we can bring in to work on your project. Between our specialties and those of our community, we can cover pretty much any genre your film requires.

Sound design is a natural for us. We bring the same level of commitment to our sound design as we do to our music, and draw on local talent as well as our own here as well. We strive to create a unique and emotionally charged soundscape for every film we work on.

We love sound effects! We have a blast creating them, and often go out in to the field to collect sounds just for fun. If we don't have what you need in our current sound library, we will go out and record it live.

Cinematography

We have deep experience and expertise at all levels of film production and deliver beautiful, creative, and cinematic footage. From music videos and live performances to the epic undertaking of features, we bring very high production value to your film or video. We are experienced in most video formats including: DV, HD, 2K, 4K. And film formats: Super16 and 35mm motion picture film.

We have an experienced team of location sound mixers. We use the Sound Devices 422T field recorder and 4 channel mixer and Sanken, Neumann, Schoeps and AT microphones to capture the best possible sound for your film. And, since we also do audio post, we are sensitive to the needs that are likely to arise in post and can plan for them during filming.

From mega-stars such as MC Hammer to artists from our vibrant local community, EMBS has helped a variety of acts to realize their unique vision.

EMBS can provide a complete film crew for all your production needs. We have a great group of people whose experience working together on numerous films provides maximum efficiency for your project.
