Steve Major
Engineer / Producer, Toronto / Montreal

My focus is helping indie musicians make great records by offering flexible production solutions and elite-studio experience.  Much of my recent work is engineering Canadian indie-rock band studio performances for The Verge, XM52 (XM Satellite Radio).  I freelance anywhere in Toronto and Montreal, but usually at the The Verge Studio or The Loft.  After honing my studio chops in Montreal as technical director of the venerable Planet Studios I moved here to operate as XM Toronto's chief sound engineer.

Audio Production Solutions

This site will mention services I offer and hopefully give you a flavour of what I'm like to work with.  My first passion is creative record-making, but having worked in multiple large facilities I've encountered a breadth of audio projects and bring a professionalism to match.  In trying to keep flexible, I accommodate different kinds of budgets and mainly use ProTools HD/LE to maintain compatibility between studios and clients.
