Over You – Macy Gray
Gabriel De Sant'Anna
Published
Engineering Over You was a masterclass in capturing emotion without losing authenticity.
Macy Gray has one of the most distinctive voices in modern soul, and my goal was to preserve every ounce of that raw, human texture while keeping the production smooth and balanced.
During tracking, I focused on creating a space where her performance could breathe, letting the rasp, phrasing, and dynamics come through naturally.
I handled the recording and prep work to ensure that when it went to mix, every take carried the full emotional weight of her delivery.
My engineering laid the foundation: clean gain staging, warm mic tone, and expressive depth that holds up across any playback system.
I’m always drawn to projects that live in that space between polish and passion, where the listener can feel the artist’s presence in the room.
If your music needs that same care and sensitivity in the recording process, I bring both the technical precision and the empathy to make it happen.
