I am also a mastering engineer, formerly with Universal Music Group/PolyGram Studios, where I remastered hundreds of albums for UMG, Motown, Verve, Island/DefJam and others. (including the Traffic catalog and "This is Spinal Tap" soundtrack)

Currently, I serve as a Member-At-Large on the board of ARSC (Association for Recorded Sound Collections).
