Through the years, Luke has earned dozens of awards working with artists such as Brad Paisley, Dierks Bentley, Dustin Lynch, and The SteelDrivers. \u201cI have been really fortunate to have so many awesome artists come through here.

Warehouse West was started in order to find young artists, help them achieve their sound, and hopefully, be a launching board for a major label.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luke\u2019s mission is to find out what voice the artists are trying to get out there, and what sound they are trying to convey. His goal? To capture what\u2019s inside the artists\u2019 heads and translate that into what\u2019s coming out of the speakers. His passion is most certainly paying off\u2014in just a few years, the artists are already at 50 million streams, and their careers are all taking off in their own ways.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><em>There\u2019s something about the energy of an artist when they\u2019re just launching\u2014it\u2019s infectious.

And to Luke, that\u2019s his favorite part of the process. \u201cThere are so many hours of work that go into making a record, but the mixing is the \u2018icing,\u2019\u2014the part where you get to share the music,\u201d said Wooten.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mixing process has changed quite a bit over the years. In fact, when Luke first started in 1998, half of the sessions were cut on 2-inch tape, and the other half were cut on RADAR II. Within just about 5-6 years, everything moved into Pro Tools.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cInstead of calling and getting a couple of rolls of tape for your session the next day, you needed to make sure there was enough hard drive space, and that you had everything backed up properly,\u201d said Luke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-owc-storage-difference\">The OWC storage difference<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Luke told us that he uses OWC storage for literally everything that he does in the studio. He records to <a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/shop\/ssd\/owc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Solid State Drives<\/a>, which are great if your Mac is running out of storage, and you need more internal space. With an SSD upgrade, you can increase the storage of nearly any Mac, and you will see an upgrade in overall performance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He also has a series of <a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/item\/OWC\/TB2SRKIT0GB\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ThunderBay RAID<\/a> enclosures with additional drive bays for external storage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever he takes something to another studio, he puts it on an external <a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/shop\/owc-envoy-pro-fx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Envoy Pro FX<\/a> portable SSD. The Envoy provides stellar performance and is the first of its kind universal Thunderbolt drive to work via USB-C and USB-A.\u202f <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/OWC-drive-mixer.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-82415\" width=\"256\" height=\"120\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/OWC-drive-mixer-256x120@2x.jpg 512w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/OWC-drive-mixer-256x120.jpg 256w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/OWC-drive-mixer-284x133.jpg 284w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/OWC-drive-mixer-190x89.jpg 190w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/OWC-drive-mixer-190x89@2x.jpg 380w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 256px) 100vw, 256px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>OWC is kind of our modern tape machine.
