"I was out on the road, and had a Windham Hill Sampler deadline to meet.  I was heading for Chicago, but heard about Lone Raven and Craig, so checked it out. I couldn't be happier with the whole experience!  Craig helped find great musicians for the session, was very accommodating, and did far more than the average Raven. I like to say that the best engineers have a good part of Buddha in them. Craig not only has that, but he has a 6th sense that made the sessions and mixing smoother than I could have hoped.  Great sound, great location, great vibe!"

"Recently I had the unending pleasure of working at Craig Markley's studio in Delaware, OH as a producer for a wonderful young fiddle player named Charlene Adzima. From start to finish, Craig was a total professional. Not only did he have command of his space, mics and equipment, his abilities on Pro Tools were miraculous. He was precise, patient and extremely knowledgeable about all facets of the recording process. I can assure you that I will be recording my second album with him as soon as I get the material together around the end of 2008."

"Lone Raven is a perfect place to record! Craig is a fantastic engineer, and has the rare talent of knowing both when to offer ideas and when to stay out of the way. His equipment is state of the art, and he brings the ears of a professional musician with decades of experience to every project he works on!  He knows every project backwards and forwards, and he even makes the coffee.  The rates are affordable, the results are professional. What else can you ask? We had an absolutely wonderful time recording there, and would recommend it to anyone!"

"I really appreciated the gallons of Irish Whiskey the studio supplied us with… it made recording so much fun… even though it doubled the amount of takes we had to do.” (Just kidding!!!!) Actually… “Craig’s musical understanding, technical ability, and personality brought out the best in all of us in the studio… it was truly a joy to work at Lone Raven Studios. We were super pleased by the results. In time, more musicians will discover what a gem this studio is in producing what you’re looking for."

"It was so much easier for me working in your studio. I think the quality of your equipment, as well as your dedication to getting the best recording from an artist, really made a big and positive difference in the whole recording experience!"
