Bill Fulton’s Sequencing and Mixing Role

Bill Fulton’s work focused on sequencing and mixing. In a production of this type, sequencing helps organize and assemble the musical material, while mixing brings the individual recorded elements together into a balanced presentation. Therefore, the work combined technical production with the musical awareness needed for a theatrical score.

The project also represents another part of Fulton’s broader recording and music-production work. His discography includes credits as a pianist, arranger, composer, producer, engineer, keyboardist, and music-production specialist. You can explore more of these projects in the Bill Fulton discography and music production archive.
