It was great working with you. I thought it was a
very smooth, trouble-free session with everybody operating at a very
professional level (even at age 16). I think we've are going to have an
impressive album. |

Thanks for having the guys! You’re studio
is in a beautiful setting and has very cool vibe.
We all
really enjoyed working with you! Thanks for being so flexible with
timing and rolling with whatever was happening, like the looooong Sat.
session. My stomach must've been the only one rumbling, but I’m glad they
could keep the flow moving. |

Just wanted to take a second to thank you for all
the time and effort you’ve given me to help me realize a dream! For the
last 5 months you have given so much to making this project come to
fruition and it’s getting so close and I am forever thankful for you! My
sister has finally finished the album cover which I think is stunning,
I’ve attached it so that you can see it!

Richard,
Thanks for running a good and productive session last night.
I’m listening now to the rough mixes you burned after last
night’s session. They’re sounding real nice. On a related note, I
wanted to tell you that I appreciate your perspective and input on
all the songs. That is, I like the Beatle-esque polish and
sensibility you bring to the proceedings.
<SNIP>
This is going to be a good batch of recordings. Really good, in
my estimation. Much of that is to your credit. This isn’t the last
time I’ll say this to you, but thanks.
Have a great day. ... David

Richard, The whole band loves the vibe of your studio and appreciate the friendship that you have extended to us. I am so happy that you are there! Although the "equipment" is important, it's the artist behind the controls that drives the process and the results... Always friendly and comfortable. Thanks again, Nuc |

Sean Farley | Hey all! Please follow this link to support and learn about a great gem in the woods for musicians of all levels and styles. This is actually my 10th studio project and they have all been done at Green Valley Recording by owner/engineer/producer/friend Richard Rupert. I have grown up in this studio, so to speak, and know there are many more out there... BUT I have become really comfortable here, and I couldn't be happier with the quality before and ESPECIALLY now! If you're thinking of recording and you're looking for a comfortable, quality, and fairly priced studio contact Richard. This video, by Tyler Spooner depicts the studio's offerings and what I'm currently creating there pretty well... |

Lane on Bass of Ryan Pelton Band "The Difference" |
Green Valley is an excellent blend of Old-School Cool and high tech. Owner/operator Richard Rupert just ROCKS!! <snip>We also want to get back to the studio to finish recording the songs for the upcoming CD. As I said before, Richard Rupert is a great engineer, and his studio is as comfortable to work in as my own living room.

Charlie Bush | Richard, I have been meaning to drop you a thank you note for some time. You have done, and are doing, a fantastic job engineering this new music that I've been recording at Green Valley. Your skill and your ideas have made such a difference in the finished work, and the fact that you've really cared about my project and gone "above and beyond" is obvious to me. I've had many people say that the songs are very much on a par with major label acts. You are just doing a GREAT job my friend! And the proof is that they're playing "9-11 RIDE" on the radio!!! Unbelievable!!! Thank you so much, Charlie Bush |
Charlie Bush, Muncy, Pa |

Ed Newman |
I can’t thank you enough for all of your work and expertise on my project. You’re the best at taking the fear out of the recording process and tuning it into an enjoyable and totally fun experience. It’s incredible how easily you can take a flawed musician with some tunes and dreams and turn them into a polished end product. Your editing capabilities are second to none. I can truly say I’ve had the time of my life during the process. Your suggestions and recommendations at every turn, both technically and with bringing in other musicians helped to keep the project on track. And the in-house background vocals can’t be beat. Thanks again to you and your lovely wife Alison for a job that exceeded my expectations! I look forward to more projects in the future. PS Where can a guy go to pick up a cat? |

Ryan Pelton | Hello Richard... You, my friend, are an invaluable asset to any musician's career. You may never hear that - maybe you hear it all the time... regardless, it's true. I'm on the road in Idaho, Montana, Utah... and I had a few days off... I needed to get some new material laid down so I found the best studio I could in a FIVE STATE AREA... It wasn't even close to you. On to business... |

EG Kight |
Hi Richard, I guess Bonnie probably told you that we listened and listened and listened to Takin' It Easy this weekend. All we could do was smile. I think it sounds great. I tried to call you a couple of times to tell you, but got your voice mail message. I think you did an incredible job, and I wouldn't hesitate to go back to your studio for the next one. Thanks for everything you put into this project. I couldn't have asked for any better. Keep a song in your heart, EG I was telling the truth about you
showing me that recording could be fun. Before Green Valley,
I had started dreading going into the studio to record.
I have never felt completely at ease and free to try things like I
did at your place. I think you captured the real
"me" more than any of my other recordings. By your
pleasant demeanor, and talent, you changed my feelings toward
recording.
I wish you continued success, and I know
you'll do well. Can't wait till next time.
Keep a song in your heart,
EG |

Bonnie Tallman | ....I can tell you that absolutely every one I have shared this with loves it and say that is the best they have ever heard recorded by her...honest. (EG Kight "Naked" Hi Richard - EG and I have just returned from our 15 day tour in CA and NV...had a ball! CD is doing quite well...we have learned it has charted at # 9 on the Living Blues radio charts. project) | Bonnie Tallman, Producer EG Kight and Ann Rabson, Hughesville, PA |
|
Ann Rabson | All the instruments sound clear, distinct and musical on this CD and my voice sounds more natural and less artificial on your recording than any I've done before. I don't know why this is so. Maybe for technical reasons or because I found the atmosphere at Green Valley to be so relaxing that I could sing from the heart. For what ever reason I'm delighted. |

Country Legend | The project is great and as always, a pleasure to work with you. | Rick Buck, Watsontown, PA |

I've been intending to write and sing your praises but you know all about good intentions, I trust. I'm sorry I've let you wallow in uncertainty about my reaction to all the effort and time you've put in. It is more than noticeable and more than appreciated. | Autumn Ayers, Pittsburg, PA |

Hi Richard, Just a note of thanks for your professionalism. It's pretty great how you always keep your composure and good attitude, even when you have 3 goobers in your face offering... "direction"?. You really do know your way around your rig
there in the mixing room. Still amazes me. I appreciate the way you stop
as soon as we need to make a change. I know some engineers won't do
that, I've actually experienced that. I guess it's a good way to burn up
more studio time. You get into the project and seem to know what we're
thinking before we say it. A very positive experience is that Green
Valley Studio. |
Bill Engel, Williamsport, PA |

Gift, Troutman and Gift | The CD's arrived today. They look great. You will be pleased with your graphic's work. It looks "real professional". I was on WKOK today with two member's of MACC and we were promoting the concert. I was asked where we did the recording and I plugged Green Valley Recording of Hughesville. This is really a nice product. Ken and Deb haven't seen it yet but I know they will be pleased. Thanks so much for your expertise, input, suggestions, and most of all your friendship. Talk to you soon. Bob |

Remington Ryde |
Richard,
I got the CD's, they look great and they sound
excellent !! I am going to send you your copy. We are booked
solid all of this year and in 2008 We currently have jobs in New
Hampshire, New York, North Carolina, Virginia, and we got some of the
biggest Bluegrass festivals in PA. It is really starting to take off.
I believe this album is great and ranks up there
with some of the artists making a living at bluegrass. I bought worse
Bluegrass albums by big name artists than this CD. I'm very pleased.
Alright I will keep in touch. Thanks again for everything.

Cole | Where to start. Thanks Richard for being who you are. Your help has brought to life a great song... WOW! A lot of positive things have happened since I saw you last. Dan and I had my internet live show for my fans around the world. It just so happened that Sony, Sci-Fi, Capitol records were also listening in and Scott Phillips the drummer from Creed honored me with his time. Kinda cool! The Record companies have spoken with Don, and they now wish for me to do a private show for them and if at all they want me to sell them a couple originals that are on our first demo with you. You played some unbelievable guitar licks on the songs we just did. You are the man. | Patrick Cole, Mansfield, PA |

Thanks Richard, was great to come there and work with you, very relaxed atmosphere and I refuse to record anywhere but with you at Green Valley! You ARE THE MAN. Thanks buddy! I value your opinions and your advise very much. I asked you because you are a "pro" and I know if you tell me this or that needs changed, then it is the truth, and I thank you for that. I will apply the changes you told me about and if you think they are ready to be recorded and so-forth, I would like to come up and have your talent and knowledge put to work on my cd. Thanks again, Bobby |

Hi Richard,
I am pleased with the finished product and would
recommend you and Disc Makers-a great combination. I hope
things slow down a bit for you and that you can enjoy the warm spring
weather we are bound to get any day now?! We have about 150 CDs
out in bookstores, chorus members, churches, etc. and have
had compliments on the graphics and the music. And I hope we can
stay in touch even though this project is completed. Thanks
again for everything! Say hello to Alison and if we get up that
way it would be fun to have eggs and scrapple at Butler's.
Blessings, Dave |
