Rudy Van Gelder. Aside from recording my favorite sort of music, the man was a gifted listener. Almost anyone can hear.

Bob Ludwig. Tony Faulkner. CDs with these names always sound good.

Bob Ludwig: The master of all mastering engineers!

Who!!!!!!??????????????

Rudy Van Geder without a doubt. From his early sides for Prestige to all the Blue Notes and Impulse work. This artist recorded more jazz albums than anyone. And as the Classic Records and Analog Productions reissues attest, his engineering was second to none. This man deserves a museum, monument, and memorial in Hackensack, NJ, where he lived and worked

Kenneth Wilkinson His recordings capture not only the sound, but the feel of the performance. The Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto Series by Wild/Horenstein is phenomenal for its age.

Rudy van Gelder, of course!

Ya gotta be kidding me. I can hardly remember the musicians much less the engineer. Hey in the end it's all about the music not the sound, even though I appreciate a well engineered recording. You all need to lighten up!

Geoff Emerick. Because he's second only to George Martin for being responsible for the Beatles sound.

avril lavigne

Roy DuNann gets my vote based on the glorious and

Peter McGrath. Reason? Just listen. From his own label Audiofon to Harmonia Mundi, he always does well.

Trevor Horn.

Yes, Eddie Offord for those wonderful sounding Yes albums of the early '70s.

Marc Aubort & Johanna Nikrenz. They got the best sound I have ever heard from recordings.

Al Schmitt. Listen to Swing While You're Winning by Robbie Williams and you will hear why. An astonishing sound.

Andy Johns.I love how Van Halen's For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge sounds and also the early Led Zeppelin albums engineered by him.Andy's abilities to record bass guitar but specially drums make his sound unique

Phil Edwards He has done the bulk of the recording for Concord Records. His work is a very good balance between the direct sound of the instruments and the hall (real or otherwise) ambience. I always look forward to the latest Concord releases with him manning the mikes.

Alan Parsons.Listen to his productions with the Beatles,Floyd and The Alan Parsons Project.An astonishing talent.
