Chris Lord-Alge is a 5 time Grammy Award winning American mix engineer. He is the brother of Tom Lord-Alge, another audio engineer. Chris Lord-Alge is known for his use of dynamic range compression in both hardware and software plug-in versions. He is also known for collaborating with Howard Benson, who has produced a minimum majority of the albums Lord-Alge has mixed. Chris Lord-Alge gained notoriety while working at Unique Recording Studios, New York City in the 1980s for his mixing on James Brown's ''Gravity'' album, which included the hit song "Living in America", the ''Rocky IV'' soundtrack, Prince's ''Batman'' soundtrack, Joe Cocker's ''Unchain My Heart'' album, Chaka Khan's ''Destiny'' album, Carly Simon's ''Coming Around Again'' album, Tina Turner's ''Foreign Affair'' album and 12" remixes of Madonna's "La Isla Bonita", the Rolling Stones' "Too Much Blood" and Bruce Springsteen's "Dancing in the Dark", "Cover Me", and "Born in the U.S.A.". While working in Japan (1995–1997), he worked with Tetsuya Komuro, No! Galers, Namie Amuro and hitomi. Lord-Alge has focused on mixing since the late 1990s, resulting in an extensive production discography (see below). Chris, and his brother Tom are known inside the music industry for crafting their mix with a liberal use of Compression (an audio dynamic control tool) for molding mixes that play well on small speakers and FM radio. In early 2010, Waves Audio released the Chris Lord-Alge Artist Signature Collection of audio plug-ins, a collection of 6 application-specific audio plug-ins for Bass, Drums, Effects, Vocals, Guitars, and Unplugged. Slightly before that, Waves had also released a collection of CLA-branded compressors, labelled the 'Classic Compressors' bundle, featuring the CLA-76 (Urei 1176LN), CLA-2A (Teletronix LA-2A) and CLA-3A (Urei LA-3A). These are among Chris's favourite dynamics units. It is widely assumed that Waves were unable to get a license to produce authorised versions of the 1176, LA-2A and LA-3A as their current manufacturer and owner, Universal Audio, already produce their own range of audio plug-ins - the UAD packs; and so branded them under CLA's name instead. Waves also performed this action under the name of Jack Joseph Puig, where some of his favourite outboard, including a Fairchild limiter (sold as Puigchild), and 2 Pultec EQs (sold as Puigtec) was modelled by Waves, who again are widely assumed to have failed in obtaining a license to officially release the plug-ins under their true company names, as they have successfully done with brands including API and Solid State Logic. On February 22, 2011 Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan announced on Facebook that the band is working with Lord-Alge on two new songs for their project, ''Teargarden by Kaleidyscope''. == Selected production discography == * Deftones - ''Diamond Eyes'' * 3 Doors Down - ''Time of My Life'' * Nickelback - ''Here And Now'', ''Dark Horse'' (I'd Come for You) * Art of Dying - ''Vices and Virtues'' * Meat Loaf – ''Hell in a Handbasket'', ''Hang Cool Teddy Bear'' * AFI – ''Decemberunderground'' * Vanessa Amorosi – ''Hazardous'' * Avenged Sevenfold – ''Almost Easy'' * Staind - ''Staind'' * Bad Religion – ''No Substance'' * Blindside – ''About a Burning Fire'' * David Bowie – ''Time Will Crawl (Dance Crew Mix)'' * Jonas Brothers – ''Jonas Brothers'', ''A Little Bit Longer'' * Demi Lovato – ''Don't Forget'', "Here We Go Again" from ''Here We Go Again'' (album) * Boys Like Girls – ''Hero/Heroine'' * Breaking Benjamin - ''Saturate'', ''Phobia'' (The Diary of Jane) * Catfish - ''Unlimited Address'' * Cheap Trick – ''The Latest'' * Comateens – ''Don't Come Back'' * Creed – ''Full Circle'' * Howie Day – "Collide – Chris Lord-Alge Mix" and "She Says – Chris Lord-Alge Mix" and "This Time Around – Chris Lord-Alge Mix" * Dishwalla – ''And You Think You Know What Life's About'' * Dover (band) - ''I Ka Kené'' * Family Force 5 – ''Business Up Front/Party in the Back'' * Faktion (2006 self-titled debut album) * FireHouse – Firehouse 3 * Flyleaf – ''Memento Mori'' * Green Day – ''Nimrod'', ''American Idiot'', ''21st Century Breakdown'', ''¡Uno!'', ''¡Dos!'', ''¡Tré!'' * Darren Hayes – ''Spin'' * Daughtry – ''Daughtry'', ''Leave This Town'', ''Break the Spell'' * Head Automatica – "Beating Heart Baby - Chris Lord-Alge Mix" * Hinder – "Lips of an Angel" (Chris Lord Alge Edited Mix) () * Jack's Mannequin – ''Everything in Transit'' and ''The Glass Passenger'' * Lights over Paris — ''Rescue Me'' * Muse - ''The 2nd Law'' and ''Live at Rome Olympic Stadium'' * Manic Street Preachers – ''Send Away The Tigers'' * Dave Matthews Band – "Grux" and "Shake Me Like A Monkey" from Big Whiskey and the Groo Grux King * Mindless Self Indulgence - ''Straight to Video: The Remixes'' - Song: Straight to Video (Chris Lord-Alge Remix) * My Chemical Romance – ''The Black Parade'' and ''Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys'' * Stevie Nicks – ''Trouble in Shangri-La''. * Paramore – ''Brand New Eyes'' * Theory of a Deadman - ''The Truth Is...'', ''Scars & Souvenirs'', ''Gasoline'' * 10 Years - ''Feeding the Wolves'' * P.O.D. – ''Testify'' * Quietdrive – ''When All That's Left Is You'' * The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus – "Lonely Road" * The Replacements – ''Don't Tell a Soul'' * Rise Against – ''The Sufferer & the Witness'', ''Appeal to Reason'' and ''Endgame'' * Three Days Grace - ''One-X'', ''Life Starts Now'', ''Transit of Venus'', and "Human (Three Days Grace album)" * The Rocket Summer – ''Do You Feel'' * Saosin – ''Voices'' * Senses Fail – ''Still Searching'' * Simple Plan – ''Simple Plan'', ''Get Your Heart On!'' * Skillet – ''Awake'' * Slipknot – ''Dead Memories'' and ''Sulfur'' * Smashing Pumpkins - ''Teargarden by Kaleidyscope''〔 * Stone Temple Pilots – "All in the Suit That You Wear" and ''Stone Temple Pilots'' * Sum 41 – Underclass Hero, Screaming Bloody Murder'' * Switchfoot – ''The Beautiful Letdown'' and ''Nothing Is Sound'' * Billy Talent – ''Billy Talent'', ''Billy Talent II'' and ''Dead Silence'' * Third Eye Blind – "Can You Take Me" and "Don't Believe A Word" from ''Ursa Major'' * Underoath – ''Define the Great Line'' * World at a Glance (band) – World at a Glance (album) – (produced by Chris Lord-Alge) (Records ) * The Used – ''Lies for the Liars'' * Adelitas Way - ''Home School Valedictorian'' * Apocalyptica - ''7th Symphony (album)'' * Owl City - ''Dementia (featuring Mark Hoppus)'' * Caparezza - ''Museica (album)'' * Dillon Francis - ''Money Sucks, Friends Rule (album)'' * Avril Lavigne - ''Avril Lavigne'', ''Fly * X Japan - Born to be free 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chris Lord-Alge」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
