“The installation of our new recording system here at All Saints went more smoothly than we believed possible. Mark's experience in recording different musical groups and his good ears enabled us to have excellent options as we chose microphones and their placement. The musical result has been excellent.”    
-Rodney Gehrke- Director of Music, All Saints Episcopal Church, Palo Alto, CA
