Christian J Herzog
I've been a musician for 20 years, with the past several playing
professionally for various bands and recording sessions. I eventually got
acquainted with recording equipment and enrolled at IPR in
Minneapolis and Edina for Audio Production & Engineering, as well as
Sound Design for Visual Media and Live Sound Reinforcement.
I'm well versed in the day-to-day operations of both touring and playing
with bands, as well as engineering and producing a wide variety of
different artists in various studios.
I'm also used to moving outside my comfort zone, taking on projects
such as sound design and Foley for film and other forms of visual media
