Dusty Wakeman: Mad Season & Production Mastery 13/05/2026

Tape Op Magazine:

"That's perfect. It's an amazing place out there. How did you end up working with Mojave Audio?"

Dusty Wakeman from Mojave Audio:

"John Jennings came over one night with a prototype of the Mojave MA-200. Eddie Kramer [Tape Op #24] was working at my studio, and he had my [Neumann] U67s out for drum room mics. Eddie said, "Put it up there." We listened and thought, "Okay, any of these three could be 67s." I said, "What are you going to do with these?" He said, "We're starting this new company." We talked for hours. I said, "If you need any help with that…" He said, "We're looking for somebody to run it, but it's a full-time job." I was like, "Sign me up, bro!" It was perfect. That was 11 years ago."

Tape Op Magazine has an excellent interview with Dusty of Mojave Audio - check it out.
