PAUL THIRD

CHIEF ENGINEER & OWNER

Paul Third is an experienced audio engineer who in recent years has gained popularity within the community for being a trusted and highly knowledgeable audio geek.

Paul’s Youtube channel has more than 20K subscribers and amassed an incredible 3 million+ views.

During the last 3 years Paul has managed to network with some amazing names within the audio and music industry which has enabled him to learn from some of the best engineers in the game. That network also includes many trusted audio manufacturers which enables Taysound to offer artists some of the best modern equipment out there today.

“My main aim in building this amazing facility is to offer a professional but relaxed environment for artists to be immersed in their own creativity without feeling the pressure of being in a confined creative conveyor belt. Is the session not working out? That’s OK, go for a walk in the beautiful secluded Scottish countryside and come back with a fresh mind, or just nip 2 minutes down for a pint at the Errol pub or a coffee at Lass of Gowrie (amazing cakes btw!). Its all on the village door step and I’ll be here for you when you come back because It’s not about when you get there, its about how!”

PORTFOLIO

Listen to some of Paul’s mixes from his ever growing portfolio of multitracks from various genre’s, as well as some of his own songs and productions!!
