Mastering Engineer Pete Doell, The Pros And Cons Of A Record Deal, And Deepfake Music On My Latest Podcast
Written by Tommy Mac

My guest on the podcast this week is mastering engineer Pete Doell, who worked as a staff engineer at the legendary Wally Heider Studios before moving to Capitol Records Studio and then to Sony Pictures, where he worked for 15 years.

While at Capitol, he worked on a wide range of artists from Miles Davis to Dwight Yokum to the Beach Boys and many more. 

In the early 2000’s Pete transitioned into mastering engineer first at Universal Mastering Studios, then to AfterMaster Audio Labs, where he currently works. His mastering credits include Ray Charles, James Brown, Puddle of Mudd, Toto, and many more.

I wanted to catch up with Pete since his last appearance on the Podcast was in Episode 165 more than 4 years ago.

During the interview we talked about the things that have changed in mastering, how streaming has actually been beneficial to music audio, the level of the mixes he asks clients to send him, mastering for The Voice, and much more.

I spoke with Pete from his studio in Hollywood.

On the intro I’ll take a look at the pros and cons of a record deal, as well as the legal implications of deepfake music.
