Elliot Scheiner
When Elliot Scheiner first took a job working for Phil Ramone in October of 1967, he probably never imagined that 30 years later he would be one of the most successful producer/engineers in the industry today. He started as Phil Ramone’s assistant at A&R Recording in New York City and quickly advanced to an engineer. By 1973, he had begun to freelance as an engineer and producer becoming the first person ever to work as a freelance engineer for other artists. Elliot began as a musician playing percussion in various bands including Jimmy Buffett’s Coral Reefers but his heart was always in the studio. Since then he has produced and engineered an eclectic plethora of talented artists such as Steely Dan, Van Morrison, Fleetwood Mac, Sting, Bruce Hornsby, The Eagles, B.B. King, Aerosmith, and many others. His talents have been recognized with 16 Grammy nominations, five of which he took home, two Emmy nominations, and three TEC award nominations. Elliot continues to be one of the most sought after producers and engineers in the industry.
