ABOUT

Welcome to D Minor Recording!

Hi, I’m Mark Dubravec, D Minor Recording is my attempt at a blog, but it is also the name of my project recording studio.

I’m an alumnus of Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA and hold a Bachelor of Music Degree in Recording Arts & Sciences.  In 2007 I became a Digidesign Certified Operator of Pro Tools HD 7.  I also perform with The Polka Quads of Steelton, PA.  We are one of the most well known Cleveland-Style Polka bands in the country and provide a variety of music with many of the songs sung in the Croatian and Slovenian languages.  Visit the Schedule page to see if we’ll be performing in your area!

I’ve worked as an audio engineer/post-production audio editor at Commonwealth Media Services (CMS) in Harrisburg, PA for the past ten years.  Our bureau provides “quality, cost-effective, professional communications products and services to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, including the Governor’s Office, departments and commissions, state-funded organizations and recipients of state grants.” CMS offers a wide variety of multi-media, video, audio, photographic, and press support services.  We have produced award winning documentaries, public-service announcements, and television commercials!

The work is very diverse and requires many skills beyond the realm of audio recording and editing.  Along the way I’ve become a satellite uplink operator…beaming broadcast video out to satellites in orbit around our beautiful blue planet!!!

I have been fortunate to be a part of a few award winning productions during my tenure here including Emmy Awards, Telly Awards, NAGC Gold Screen Awards, Omni Awards and New York Festivals International Film & Video Awards.

You may view samples of  CMS productions at the CMS website or at www.PAcast.com.  Thanks visiting!
