– George Langis, owner Signal Sound Source
Whether its helping to launch the major label careers of such bands as Mudvayne,
garnering national rave reviews and national endorsements for bands like Left
Setter, working preproduction for international recording artists Soil or
working with up-and-coming bands, Signal Sound Source recordings has become
a Mecca for musicians looking to create professional sounding recordings in
a supportive environment.
“I think we are in an amazing age of independent artists making exceptional
music,” says co-owner Nick Langis. “We provide the opportunity
for bands of all backgrounds to produce professional quality recordings that
are ready for release on the largest of levels. What we record here competes
with anything else being released today.”
Located on Chicago’s West side in an industrial complex that has long
been home to a vibrant scene of local artists, Signal Sound Source has also
focused on creating an atmosphere conducive to bringing out the best in a
performance. Take a virtual tour on this site and take a look around at the
attention to detail in design and atmosphere.
“I originally got into recording because I was fascinated with the textures
and production of the albums I grew up listening to. I wanted to be able to
produce those sounds for my music,” says owner/producer/engineer George
Langis. “As that eventually involved into opening this studio, I still
have that mindset where I approach each project with the goal of helping other
artists to fully realize their potential and to produce material that represents
them in the best way possible. I’ve been on the other side of the glass,
laying down tracks so I know how important it is to have not only the support
of the engineers and producer, but also the resource of their technical ability.”
Signal Sound Source’s commitment to using only quality, professional
equipment assures that bands will achieve sonic quality usually only associated
with recordings that usually cost much, much more. Utilizing analog technology
and technique along with the latest in digital audio, top-notch microphones
and out board gear, and a great selection of preamps and amplifiers, artists
record on some of the best gear the industry has to offer. Bands benefit from
Langis’ commitment to not only the latest technical trends, but to his
pursuit of acquiring vintage/classic high-performance equipment.
Engineer Asim Ali says “We are about establishing a trust with our clients.
You can walk into some places and not even be sure what the qualifications
of the engineer are or if he even really cares about what you are doing. Because
you are working directly with George and I, you can rest assured that because
we are directly connected with every project that you will have the full use
of all of our skills and knowledge both as performers and engineers.”
With artists like Soil, Mudvayne and Anthrax seeking the studio out based
on its reputation in the industry, Signal Sound Source provides an artist
with the credibility it needs to move to the next level. Signal Sound Source
has helped bands at every level achieve that next step, whether it’s
getting a budget approved by a major label or being showcased on a local radio
station or headlining a local venue like Metro. The studio provides something
that bands can’t achieve on their own, the quality production and product
that will result from working with proven engineers and producers with a track
record of support and success in the music industry.
