"Two-time GRAMMY® winner and Technical GRAMMY Award recipient Do
ug Sax was known as one of the top mastering engineers in the music industry. Revered in the audio community, he co-founded The Mastering Lab, the first independent mastering facility in the world. Although he established a career as a symphonic trumpeter, his interest and talent in the sound of recorded music was undeniable, and he would ultimately become one of the most prolific figures in the field, gaining a reputation for being one of music’s best “ears.” Our music community has lost an immense talent, and a person with great integrity and immeasurable grace. Our deepest condolences go out to his family, friends, and all those who had the privilege and pleasure of working with him."
