Steven Maes

Recording Engineer - producer Steven Maes has been experimenting with sound tools for the past twenty five years, using everything from lamp microphones to 360 video and Ambisonic immersive sound technology. Passionate about classical music, he has directed television programs, made hundreds of recordings, and mastered CDs for popular music artists from Adamo to Lost Frequencies. His recordings have been praised in BBC Music Magazine and Gramophone, and his DVD 392 (on Pieter Wispelwey’s recording of the Bach Cello Suites) was met with great acclaim. Classica selected his recording of Debussy’s La Mer (Brussels Philharmonic) as the best reference of all time. Steven is on faculty at PXL University College in Hasselt, Belgium, where he supervises thesis projects and teaches studio technique.
