Live broadcast mixing is the most pressure packed of all audio engineering tasks." says Mueller, There is all the spontaneity of front of house mixing, but my live broadcast mixes live forever either in celebration or infamy. Tracking a CD is simple in comparison."

The video game is the single strongest vehicle for breaking new music today. If you want your music heard, you have to get it in front of the audience.

Vision Videogames will also use Vision Audio, Inc, its in-house recording studio to record voice, effects and music for other video game companies. Mueller is very sensitive to the specific needs and demands of a video game studio. Our team has thirty five games and fifteen years of recording experience with this genre. It takes a lot of the guesswork out of the studio. We have built Vision Audio from the ground up specifically for recording audio for videogames", explains Mueller.
