Paper Street Audio Company

Paper Street Audio Company is a one-person audio shop where service matters. Audio engineer Paul Kavicky has extensive experience in sound production and will ensure that your project comes out sounding its best. Professional engineering with cutting edge gear produces polished audible results that you simply cannot get any other way.

Great audio gear is where it all starts. However, skilled audio engineering is the most important aspect of Paper Street Audio Company. It takes both the "ear" and the "gear" to deliver a better quality final product.

Paul Kavicky - the engineer

Paul confidently handles all the technical conerns and takes charge as the ringleader of fun, so that working on music is enjoyable at Paper Street Audio Company—like it's supposed to be. His sonic sensibilities, extensive professional experience in both live and studio sound, and work ethic propel projects to successful completion. Paul has freelanced for arts and production companies, as well as for IATSE in large scale touring shows. Clients include Wicked, Showboat, CAPA, Balletmet, Mills James Productions, Columbus Junior Theatre, Drew Thomas Productions, Dublin Dance Center, Muskingam College, Wyandot Lake, Music King, DTN Productions, Meister Boo Productions, Crystal Garden, Vaud Villities, Otterbein College, Pounce International, and many others.

Paul's studio production work includes tracking, mixing, editing, remixing, audio post, voiceover, and voice-on-hold for numerous clients, many of which have a long term relationship with Paper Street Audio Company. Clients have ranged from corporate, government, theatrical, forensic audio, and dance, to musicians of all genres, from opera to industrial. Editing and sound design for live performers and dance companies has become a specialty for Paul.

As an IATSE journeyman, Paul has gained experience in FOH sound, monitors, backline, and related stagehand work with large-scale touring music and theatre productions. He has also done location sound for independent movies, commercials, and other videos. Experienced as both an A1 and A2, Paul can run sound as well as run crews. Because over the years Paul has worked as part of the road crew and the house crew, as an agent, and as the talent, he clearly understands the big picture of production.

All Paper Street Audio Company equipment is in road-ready shock mount racks. And with a traveling card, passport, and roadbox, Paul is ready to go where the gig is!

Reviews

"Paul has exceptionally high standards for his quality of work and it is always prevelant in the final product. We have been extremely happy customers for over a decade."

- Angela Carter, Dublin Dance Center

"Paul Kavicky of Paper Street Audio brought a wealth of experience to sound design on our short film. His background working with musicians made the integration of a complex soundtrack with dialog and background elements seem effortless. And because Paul's state-of-the-art studio made for quick recording of actor voice over and ADR as well as synthesized and acoustic music, it became the one-stop solution for all of our post sound needs."

 - Aaron Friedman, Meister Boo Imagination

"Paul exceeded our every expectation.  Besides having the technical expertise, one of his most impressive qualities was his dedication to our project. He took the time to really understand the needs of our story and was devoted to turning our vision into a reality. He always strived to raise our production quality to the next level by offering out-of-the-box ideas and continuously refining the audio until we were all completely satisfied.  His passion, professionalism, and ability to overcome the adverse situations we faced in post, made all the difference for our short film.
