SCOTT GLASEL
FOUNDER | CTO December 27, 1957 – May 14, 2023
Scott was so much more than a Co-founder and business partner he was a dear friend. I love you and miss you Scott - until we see each other again let's continue to work to bring Heaven to earth. In Memorium
Scott’s innate passion for sound led to a career spanning over 30 years working with some of the most renowned artists of all time. He was known for his work as a master recording engineer, re-recording engineer, music producer and songwriter. Scott had expertise on a wide range of world-class equipment, software and audio systems. At the heart of the matter, he was really still that kid who is fascinated by everything having to do with sound.
Working for nearly a decade with Barry, Maurice and Robin Gibb of The Bee Gees, Scott served as a key member of the production and engineering team at the near-mythical Middle Ear Studio. He had the privilege of recording renowned music talents such as Diana Ross and the late great Michael Jackson. In addition to being a chief engineer, Scott also collaborated on several albums as drum programmer and synthesist. Maurice Gibb once introduced Scott to Paul McCartney as an “all-around good egg” .
After The Bee Gees, Scott became a product specialist for DigiDesign and was part of the delivery team that launched ProTools 3. Then he immersed himself in the world of sound for film and television in Hollywood. As a product specialist for AMS-NEVE, he installed the famed Neve DFC console and the industry-standard NEVE 88R consoles at Disney, Warner Brothers, Fox, Todd-AO and Skywalker Ranch. He is proud that many of the upgrades of these products include features that he recommended, based on his field experience and hands-on product testing.
In the film mixing world Scott explains, “I trained Oscar-winning film re-recording mixers on state-of-the-art software and hardware. I worked on films such as Blast From The Past (Christopher Walken, Brendon Frazier), Training Day (Denzel Washington, Eva Menendez), Swordfish (John Travolta). Meet Joe Black (Brad Pitt) among others. I got to play with the world’s best sound equipment and worked with some of the most talented professionals at the most technically advanced studios on the planet.” Scott cultivated a close relationship with Dolby and brough the convergence of his experience into MRSV.
