Case Study: Don Gunn achieves seamless, analog-style mixing workflow with Avid Technology

Don Gunn On Top of the Seattle Scene

Don Gunn, a Seattle-based recording engineer, mixer, producer, and musician, needed a more hands-on way to work in the box while still preserving the feel of an analog console. He used Avid Technology’s Artist Mix and MC Transport with Logic Pro 9 and Pro Tools to centralize control for his mixing and tracking workflow.

Avid Technology’s Artist Series gave Don Gunn seamless integration, no setup required, and a more musical, organic mixing experience with faders, knobs, and automation tools. He said the system feels like an analog desk, with strong visual feedback from the OLED displays and smoother transitions between computer-based and console-style work, helping him mix efficiently across multiple sessions and projects.
