candid audio

Bringing your work to a studio can be challenging, but Zach at Candid Audio made the experience seamless and comfortable! We got right down to business after a few warm welcomes and a much needed discussion about our goals. The EXCEPTIONAL recording and mixing quality was worthy every penny. The convenient location nestled into the heart of Capitol Hill Seattle made the commute to the studio for our sessions quick and straightforward. I felt very comfortable and confident in Zach's abilities, as well as the sharp skills of his assistant Evan. Would recommend to anyone and everyone.

Zach is a very friendly human being. I’m grateful for his help. He is a great mixing engineer as well. I was impressed with the recent songs he produced/mixed and I wish I have the same skill one day.

Best studio experience I have had to date. Clean and professional sessions all while facilitating a creative environment. I don't have a ton of in-studio experience, but Zach made it a seamless experience. I also was impressed with the coaching and directing I received. Even though I knew my vision for the songs, it's good to have that in an engineer in my opinion. Zach is very very good at what he does and his artistry is very much appreciated!!! He threw some cool ideas in my songs that made me and friends there turn up in pure excitement. Highly recommend this spot I'm very satisfied with my experience here!

If Dr.Dre and Rick Rueben had a nephew in the northwest, you have found him. With a lifetime dedicated to audio engineering, production and live performances, Zach takes no shortcuts in bringing the best out of you and your music.

Zach is a super knowledgable guy and has a great ear for music. He's professional but also makes it fun to record. The studio he's got has a great vibe to it, it's real comfortable to record there and easy to get into the mindset of recording and working on music. Zach's great at getting an industry standard quality mix and master for you and he's great at hearing what you want and putting that at his first priority. Overall, he's real easy to work with, and will get you the product that you're looking to get.

Zach is a phenomenal human being first and foremost, and on top of that he is an incredible audio engineer and musician. He has an innate ability to take your image of a song and elevate to higher levels than you could imagine. Great studio with a wonderful vibe all lead by the great guy running it. Can’t wait to work with him again!

This is an amazing place to help grow your sound and help grow yourself as an artist. The owner Zach, is an amazing engineer. But even more an amazing person. He wants to see artist grow and reach their potential, and not just make money from your session. He gives input that is needed and he tells you what he hears. He genuinely wants to help you get the best product you can get. And what else could you want out of an engineer ? He’s the best in the business. And the world will see it.

Does great work and provides amazing feedback when recording, I’d say if you as a artist want to take your music to the next level and receive positive feedback and suggestions while recording you should book a session. I’ve learned a lot since I’ve worked Zach and completely changed the way I record now!

Zach is without a doubt the most professional, accommodating, and efficient audio engineer I’ve encountered in almost 10 years in the industry. I booked my first session nearly 2 years ago, and I’ve been working exclusively with him ever since. The man has proven time and time again that not only is he DEDICATED to making sure you sound GOOD, but that he’s willing to go above and beyond to help you educate and grow along the way (the REAL treasure).

A true master wizard, with plugins and a MIDI keyboard in place of a cloak and staff <3 Whether it’s professional audio recording or more corporate type work, I couldn’t possibly recommend this dude enough! 10/10

From voice overs and corporate work to hip-hop and full band recordings, candid has you covered. I’ve worked with Zach and candid many times over the past 3 years. Zach has all the technical skills that put him in the “top tier” of audio engineers in the city. But what sets him and candid apart is Zachs ability to work with clients and get their authentic performance. It’s more than just pressing record for Zach. He will work with you on crafting a sound or rewriting your corporate VO read to be as real and authentic as possible. I’ll always go to candid and Zach for any of my audio needs 🤘

Never met guy like this Before whatever i say about him is less. So trust me ones you work with him you would never think about other Directors. It’s been a year we makin Music together more to come💯. So give a shot to my guy.

Everything about this place is 100% perfect across the board. No criticisms at all. I was able to work with them on my album and was absolutely blown by the final product. As someone who was unfamiliar with the recording process it was easy and very welcoming. Ask for Zach if you want a masterpiece. This place legitimately is the best for recording in all of Seattle hands down.

Great studio experience and quality engineering. Zach knows engineering and music like the back of his hand, and is accommodating and easy to work with. I won’t get my audio mixed anywhere else

Great studio. Great producer. Will be back soon, he also has an assistant as well on standby to give you advice and feedback with whatever you’re into no judgment keeps it professional and straightforward. If your not at candid audio with your music then then your not getting the right sound!!!

It's always a pleasure working with Zach! Anything we have ever wanted to do with a track, Zach can make happen, and has ideas to make it sound even better! Also apperciate his willingness to work with you when you need something a little extra! Highly recommend Candid Audio!
