Quotes:
Corin exemplifies the critically artistic element that is needed to communicate the skills of the recording artist to the producer. In my case, Corin has found the way of recording the acoustic purity in guitar and vocal tracks that lay the foundational aspects of my work. Corin’s skills are at the highest level of expertise in the recording industry. He is a constant in the studio environment that eases the mind of the artist while at the same time fosters result with what seems to be effortless grace, knowledge, and confidence of his profession. . -Paul Jensen, singer-songwriter


Corin Nelsen is a fabulous engineer who goes the extra mile to achieve the best cohesive sound for your music. My music has gone beyond my wildest imaginations with his magic touch! -Kori Linae Carothers, pianist-composer

Corin Nelsen bridges technology and emotions to reflect art in its purest form. I have had the distinct pleasure of working with him on a number of projects over the past few years and have been consistently mesmerized by the talent and distinctive perspective he so effortlessly possesses... and through his calming presence the realization that all is going to sound as it should fills the room and comforts the artist... he is an astounding practicioner of his art and responsible for so many others to embrace their own.- Patrick Gorman, pianist & drummer
