She is the owner and head engineer of MONOLisa Studios. Over the past 20+ years, Denise has worked on a variety of music productions, across many genres, working with independent artists and major clients alike. Her clients include Sony Masterworks, EMI, Koch Records, Nonesuch, Razor & Tie, KonceptVR, Movers & Shakers, and organizations such as The New York Film Academy, and MOMA. Denise also works with film producers and directors creating soundtracks (music composition, sound design, foley, ADR and mixing) for feature films, documentaries, trailers, and commercials. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed4cb95dcfc8266548db95f/4d42729d-151d-4d7e-8f03-a66119903531/BTSP_MLS_0349.jpg Staff - Raymond Bonanno ~ 1st Assistant/Engineer Ray has been with the family at MONOLisa since 2013. Starting out as a student of Denise’s at the County College of Morris, he became a helping hand in the construction of MONOLisa’s first commercial space and from there on he worked numerous sessions as an intern and quickly became an Assistant Engineer. Outside of the studio Ray performs in two Mathrock bands. He is currently the drummer/lead vocalist and co-writer for Use Big Words, and the bassist and background vocalist for Invalids. He also serves as a recording engineer/mixer for both projects. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed4cb95dcfc8266548db95f/fb724c8a-63f6-4c83-8a22-61e57f21fd74/John+Osborn-41-3.jpg Staff - John Osborn ~ 2nd Assistant/Mastering Engineer John is the most recent addition to MONOLisa’s assistant roster. A graduate of Elon University’s Music Technology program, he moved to Queens in 2020 to pursue a career in music production with a specialty in mastering. Having visited the studio after meeting Denise at an Audio Engineering Society event, John immediately identified with the creative and inclusive atmosphere Rich and Denise had created. Not to mention assisting would provide the perfect answer for his scented candle addiction. The rest is history. Today, John’s role in the studio is to help facilitate recording sessions, offer tasteful Gen-Z insight, and bring a pretty gay vibe to things. When not patching XLR cables or refilling the studio’s bowl of Spicci candies, John can be found creating lofi hiphop, producing acoustic pop, and mastering anything he can get his hands on. He hopes to do that more. And also marry rich. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed4cb95dcfc8266548db95f/fb53a8a8-2f6b-4b5f-b7a8-b83f8bcd6dd4/Photo+5.JPEG Staff - Hillary Van Scoy- 2nd Assistant/Engineer Hillary began her engineering journey in Glasgow, Scotland in the mid 2010s and moved to NYC in 2019, where she continued her recording adventures at Studio G Brooklyn and various others, tracking local New York bands as well as her own project. Hillary met Denise through mutual friends and, as she continued to stop by the studio to lend a hand and catch a glimpse of some great sessions, she fell in love with the space and its welcoming community of participants. She enjoys playing drums, bass, keys, and guitar for her desert-rock band Blood of the Bull as well as dropping in to play music on friends’ recordings. You can catch her any day of the week meticulously adjusting drum overhead mics and maybe playing some crunchy guitars in a corner. https://www.monolisanyc.com/audio-visual-samples daily 0.75 2023-09-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed4cb95dcfc8266548db95f/c08361b0-ed36-45f5-bede-504c8ddf960a/Grammy-award-icon.png Audio & Visual Samples - Best Children's Music Album: Lucy Kalantari & The Jazz Cats "All The Sounds" https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed4cb95dcfc8266548db95f/c08ceb22-a532-4faf-9eae-b3e3157d9088/KONCEPT+VR.png Audio & Visual Samples - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed4cb95dcfc8266548db95f/0197fe6e-52de-46a9-9e98-96512a0470d3/NYFA.gif Audio & Visual Samples - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.monolisanyc.com/about-the-piano daily 0.75 2021-12-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed4cb95dcfc8266548db95f/a1ca0b0a-6c99-4e48-939a-c95087d7527f/BTSP_MLS_0096.jpg About the Piano - (What does that mean?) It means that we can record MIDI performance data while recording the piano acoustically. Hypothetical example: After playback, we notice there’s some drum bleed in the piano. No Problem! Once everyone leaves, we can playback the MIDI data into the piano and record the acoustic piano "after the fact" without bleed. We can also correct any mistakes in the performance- The midi data recorded during the session can also be used to trigger another piano sample from our extensive library to layer or perhaps replace the acoustic sound if so desired. And if that weren’t enough,.. Here’s another great feature: Clients who perhaps don't have an acoustic piano, can send us MIDI data, we can send it to the Disklavier, and it will play your performance back as you played it. We can send you a recording of your performance using the acoustic piano. So many options! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed4cb95dcfc8266548db95f/1629672454497-PBELKRJ7A6GASRT50M1X/We+found+Delores+in+a+Long+Island+piano+studio.+We+fell+in+love.+img-1811_1_orig.jpg About the Piano - Meet Delores (the Disklavier) After almost a year of searching, we finally found a mint condition Upright Yamaha Disklavier. We felt the Upright Disklavier was the perfect piano for MONOLisa due to it's versatility and size. She's an older model, an MX100 Mark II, about 15 years old. She plays and sounds amazing, with the added benefit of MIDI compatibility… https://www.monolisanyc.com/clients daily 0.75 2024-08-25
