I'm ready to add guitar parts to your song! 
I can also play bass, drums, keyboards and sing vocals to your track as well.

Profile

Bernie Chiaravalle is originally from Marin County, CA. He moved to Southern California in the early 1980s and joined Michael McDonald's band as lead guitarist and vocalist in 1988. In 1990 he moved and made his home in Nashville, TN making a home for his family and becoming a part of the Nashville music scene.


Recording Studio

Bernie records mainly in Cubase 11 and crosses over into all DAW platforms. He can play electric and acoustic guitar parts on your track. He also can record bass, keyboards, drums and vocals (lead and background). For a more detailed list of equipment please see below.


How It Works

If you have a song that you would like Bernie to work on, you would send a 2 track stereo "stem" track snapped to the beginning or specified bar of you arrangement window and the BPM if you used a click track. It can be a wave, mp3 or aiff file. It doesn't matter what DAW you are using. Bernie would then send you back a reference mix of your song with the new parts. You would then be invoiced through PayPal or Stripe. Once payment is received the new 24 BIT guitar tracks would then be sent to you via Dropbox. You would then just import them to your project.
