“John is honest and thorough, and his work ethic is second to none. His professionalism and dedication to a project he has committed to is commendable. Generous with his time and willing to go beyond, he listens to the sensitivities of a project and can offer well-considered, professional opinions.”

China Drum

“We had a very difficult situation regarding mixing and mastering and it was not the easiest of tasks, but John, with his outstanding knowledge and experience, enhanced it to a level way beyond our expectations. Communication was excellent and we couldn’t have asked for a better result.

We would recommend audioracket to anyone in the business.

John Donaldson

“I’ve been fortunate enough to have worked with John on several projects over recent years. His ears and technical knowledge have unfailingly brought great clarity to the music we have worked on – jazz and music for film/tv. He removes the detritus that many a mixing engineer would have missed or maybe not even heard, then he adds some magic. Great guy to work with. Highly recommended.”

King Size Slim

“I’ve worked with John on a number of recording projects now. He is always professional, always amiable, always on point. John provides a project with a genuine sense of ‘we can do this’. His knowledge and experience is second to none, and always delivered with humility and empathy. He is definitely our ‘go to’ tech.”

Frank Moon

“John approaches every project with exactly the right blend of creativity, professionalism and enthusiasm that you want from a mix engineer when you hand over a personal project. His sincerity and commitment to achieving what the artist needs is highly valued.

I’ve worked with him on several, hugely varied projects and he’s never failed to produce great mixes, no matter what the genre, always on time and very reasonably priced, yet never cutting corners on attention to detail.”

Evan Jenkins

“Aside from being a top class mix engineer and producer, John creates such a positive working relationship, which to me is the key to realising my creative ideas. I’ve consistently returned to working with John for this reason alone… long may it continue.”

Wildflower

“Working with John was a pleasure. He listened to the songs and made some small, but helpful suggestions with a calm, patient approach. The raw tracks already sounded great, but his mixes took them to another level and we’re delighted with the results.”

“I was very fortunate to work with Hastings heroes Ore Synthesizer Club on two tracks. John’s skill foregrounded the right measure of clarity and impact on the vocals, giving the thrust and tenderness required. Top notch.”

“John is fantastic to work with. On top of being an all round lovely guy, he has a truly remarkable musicality, a brilliant pair of ears, and top-notch technical skills. He’s intuitive, collaborative and supportive, but also open, and able to give you an alternative perspective when needed. He’s definitely become my band’s regular go-to studio guru.”
