Ali Staton

From Island Records to Madonna

 

In the heyday of Take That he won his spurs as an assistant engineer, now he is working as a programmer and arranger for the live shows of Madonna. The talk is about Ali Staton, who runs his own Spyral Sound Ltd. studio for six years now.

 

Years ago he had worked as a mixer and engineer at the legendary studio of Island Records, which had a great roster of artists at that time. Being a staff member of Island Records and later a freelancer, he had the opportunity to produce and mix artists like Seal, PJ Harvey, Lamb, Simply Red and many more.

 

Such great artists deliver very good performances, that’s why Ali Staton likes Melodyne – the software allows him to do very subtle and inaudible optimizations. But just take a look for yourself and hear what Ali Staton has to say about his work and the use of Melodyne ...
