Thanks a lot... I like your site too.
It's amazing how many really nice studios have really bad sites tho, isn't it?

Well.. I'll grant that the cost of living here in St. Louis is pretty low.. It's definately not LA, but yeah...
As one of those in house engineers you are talking about, yeah the pay sucks
... I guess the trade off is making your own hours, having a full time secretary do all the booking/money collecting/phone answering and of course working at a studio full time and getting to work on a few pretty big projects that you may not have gotten the opportunity to work with had you not been a staff engineer here.... a few movies, corporate stuff, jingles and a bunch of other things that I would've never gotten on my own, plus all the experience that comes with it. Oh... and I should mention they are trying to set up health insurance for us through the studio, so that will be nice...
I guess it just shows the state of the music industry... Besides, there is a line of 1,000+ kids here in town that would LOVE to take our place...
Anyway... this thread is about the site and not what we make. I kinda wish that info wasn't on the site. Thanks for looking around the new site and for your comments tho.
