Testimonials
“I have used Sienna Digital periodically for CD mastering and CD manufacturing over the years, and have had a great experience every time. The audio mastering process for albums is an art and Rainer Gembalczyk is an expert. He has the depth of experience, technical skill, and artistic sensibilities to really make a recording sound superb. If that were not enough, he is easy going, and makes the process fun." –Rick V., Palo Alto, CA on Yelp

"I used Rainer Gembalczyk at Sienna Digital for graphic design and manufacturing of my latest CD. He came highly recommended and he didn't disappoint me. Working with him was really a pleasure and I recommend Rainer to anyone.

Yesterday Carlos brought me the finished CD, designed by Sienna Digital and I was floored. The design work was phenomenal. They took my work to the next level. Album looks ten times better that I thought it could. And it sounds great too! :)” –Fima G, San Fransisco, CA on Yelp

Our very successful release on October 4th is already generating comments that specifically mention the fidelity and nuance of the recording, one listener calling it the best recording she has heard (!?). We attribute much of that to your masterful work. You 'got' what we were going for, and for that we are very grateful to have made the connection with you.” –Michael B., Elk Grove, CA

“I had the best experience getting my album mastered. Rainer is an excellent Mastering Engineer with decades of experience, not to mention a Grammy winner. He really made my music sound its best. We talked for almost an hour about music and different styles of recording music before he began to work on my project. It was very educational for me. I really liked his personal approach to my project.” –J. P., San Jose, CA on Yelp
“Barry Phillips, a long time friend and super musician (played with Ravi Shankar...) who played on my Album, "what If..." and when Ii asked about replication, he mentioned Sienna Digital. I loved Barry, and the CDs made there, and at their site noticed Mic Gillette, one of the worlds premier Soul and Rock trumpet players who works on my albums did his theres as well. Rainer and Naomi came through with the best CD package I've ever seen, and it sounds fantastic! The price and delivery were all I could ask for. I cannot recommend them highly enough - for quality and personal service." –Dale O., Aptos, CA on Yelp
