Grammy Award winning producer and songwriter Dave Tozer uses IsoAcoustics ISO-PUCKs to optimize the listening environment in his studio. The innovative isolation solutions from the Canadian manufacturer improve the acoustic performance of Tozer’s studio monitor speakers to facilitate his creative process. Tozer, who has worked with artists like John Legend, Snoop Dogg and Kanye West, praises the positive effect the ISO-PUCKs have had in his studio: “The sound is clearer and more accurate with a tight bass response.”
Always Looking for Magic: Dave Tozer
John Legend, Kanye West, Justin Timberlake, Jay-Z, Snoop Dogg – Dave Tozer’s roster of collaborators reads like a who’s who of music royalty. As a prolific songwriter and producer, Tozer has crafted hits and chart-topping records for numerous artists, earning him widespread recognition for his innovative production style. His ability to create soulful music across different genres speaks to his remarkable talent, skill and dedication. Tozer consistently captures and records that elusive magic, producing music that resonates deeply with listeners on an emotional level.
ISO-PUCKS for Optimal Listening Conditions
For Dave Tozer to achieve these outstanding results, he needs to be able to rely on his monitoring system. To optimize the output from his speakers, he recently upgraded them by placing them on top of IsoAcoustics ISO-PUCKs. “I use all 3 models of ISO-PUCKs in my studio,” Tozer says. “I have pucks for my near-fields, mid-fields, and subwoofer, and they have made a significant improvement.” Decoupling his trusted monitor speakers from their respective supporting surfaces has enabled them to realize their full potential.
Taking Care of the Physics: IsoAcoustics
IsoAcoustics has perfected the art of speaker isolation, decoupling speakers and audio equipment from the surfaces they rest on – whether it’s the floor, shelves, or desks. The impact is remarkable, as effective speaker isolation eliminates many acoustically adverse effects. By reducing vibration transfer both into and out of the speaker, the ISO-PUCKs ensure that these vibrations no longer compromise audio quality. No more rattling surfaces, sound transmission into other rooms, or vibration reflecting back into the speaker cabinet – just pure, undisturbed sound. The result is a more transparent audio experience with the full spectral response of the speakers intact. As Tozer describes it: “The sound is clearer and more accurate with a tight bass response.”
IsoAcoustics and Dave Tozer: Merging Technology with Creativity
IsoAcoustics has mastered the art of speaker isolation to enable artists like Dave Tozer to perform at their best – to work their magic. So while the processes and working principles of the IsoAcoustics products are entirely rooted in science and physics, they are employed in a way conducive to the creative process. “I knew that the IsoAcoustics products were really well designed,” Dave Tozer says, “but I was surprised at how much fun I’m having listening, creating, and mixing with the ISO-PUCKs.” That is exactly how science and art should work together.
