In a creative
field that demands excellence and innovative thinking, Taproot
Audio Design owner, Jeffrey Reed combines experience and
intuitive talents to make him a reliable and multi-faceted audio engineer.
He has established himself in the mid south and has amassed a discography that includes credits ranging
from the rootsy sounds of The Creek Dippers and Blue Mountain,
the Cajun stomp of C.J. Chenier, to the traditional southern
gospel sound of the Mississippi Mass Choir. Reed initially gained
experience as an engineer while working for Malaco and Parallax
Records, both independent labels based in Jackson, MS. Until entering
the independent market in early 1996 as a freelance producer/engineer,
Reed worked at Ardent Studios in Memphis, Tenn. since 1992, garnering
numerous gold and platinum awards with such artists such as the U.K.’s
Primal Scream , the pop-sensible Gin Blossoms
and the country music world’s Aaron Tippin. He delved further in
the music industry through his work in record marketing, promotions and
retail sales and in 1998, briefly became co-owner of Black Dog Records
(Blue Mountain, Marah, The Continental Drifters). Over 15
years of experience in audio recording and production have led to the
formation of Taproot Audio Design located in Oxford, MS, one
of the only mastering rooms located in the state of Mississippi. Unlike
some other facilities, "We master CDs by
ear, not by box." In addition to CD Mastering , we also include CD Duplication and Forensic Audio Restoration among our many services.
Production services
are also available in-house, as well as on a freelance basis. Taproot
Audio Design offers state of the art equipment and world class mastering
skills to meet nearly any budget. Reed's success stems from his flexibility
and responsiveness to the needs and wants of the client. Superb listening
skills coupled with an innate love and feel for music make him a top
choice of some of music's legendary professionals. |
