Bob Bullock - Nashville's Premier Mixing Engineer
Born in Oakland, California, producer/engineer Bob Bullock began his
lifelong career in the music business while still a senior in high
school. Living in the Los Angeles area, he made his way up the ranks
as a studio engineer, training under such greats as Humberto Gatica,
Barney Perkins, Roy Haley and Roger Nichols. He quickly became a top
engineer himself and worked with a variety of acts, including The
Tubes, Art Garfunkel, Seals and Crofts, Chic Corea and REO Speedwagon.
In 1981, while working at Lionshare Recording Studio for Kenny Rogers
he was approached by legendary producer Jimmy Bowen to engineer for
Warner Bros. Records in Nashville. Bullock commuted from L.A. to Nashville
until 1984, when he and his family made a permanent move.

"We were challenged by top engineer Bob Bullock (Shania Twain)
to design a monitor system in a small, unused dining room in his home
primarily so that he could reference his studio mixes (See Home Studio
Epiphany article in Library). Our instructions were to spend as little
money as possible since he originally didn’t expect much or
take the room very seriously in spite of our boast that we could give
him an impressive system.
In the end he got far more than he expected and says he is "spoiled"
by the dramatic performance of the CTD PhantomFocus™ Near-Field
System. Bob, whose first love is working on large SSL and Neve consoles
in commercial studios, has since started mixing his lower budget projects
in "The Dining Room" and is presently upgrading all the
components."
