Kyle Hershman — (engineer)
Kyle was the engineer the day of my music recording at the “Sound Emporium, in Nashville. He did a great job as usual.
Kyle is the resident Audio Engineer at the Sound Kitchen/Studio 19. Some of his first big projects Kyle worked on, were for country greats like Ronnis Milsap and Lynn Anderson.
When it comes to Hershman’s engineering philosophy, less is more. “I like organic, real sounding recordings,” he says. “I refuse to use drum replacer and would rather get the snare to sound better than replace it.”
He considers himself more of a tracking engineer than a mixer or knob fiddler: “My clients really love my raw and organic sounding drum sounds. I try to use very minimal EQ and if something doesn’t sound right, I’m more quick to move a mic a little than to turn the EQ on.”
