Robert Nation is co-owner of EMAC Recording Studios in London, Ontario, as well as an audio engineer and producer.
Early life
Robert was born and raised in West Island of Montreal where he attended Dorval High school in Montreal. While in his teens, we started doing live sound work for a handful of young local bands.
Robert's father was the Head of Finance for RCA Records and when we was transfered to Toronto, Ontario, Robert moved with him.
After taking a couple of small recording courses and doing live sound mixing for some Toronto acts, Robert landed himself a gig at the offices of RCA Records. Wanting to further his education in recording engineering and music production, Robert moved on to London Ontario where he completed the Music Industry Arts program at Fanshawe College. This is where he met his colleague, and eventual co-owner of EMAC Recording Studios, Joe Vaughan.
Career
In his last year of college, early ’80, Robert and Joe Vaughan made the decision to open a recording studio in London, Ontario where the new music scene was vibrant and blossoming. EMAC's first location was downtown London at 343 Richmond Street on the 3rd Floor of a large building, which also housed a radio station right above them. After 10 years, EMAC Recording Studios started to become a destination for local and out of town bands, Robert and Joe made the decision to expand and purchase the current studio building at 432 Rectory Street.
Robert continues to run EMAC Recording Studios, and is now a part-time audio engineering professor at Fanshawe College. He is also the chair for the Producer of the Year selection committee for Canada’s Juno Awards and has sat on education panels and seminars including the Jack Richardson Music Awards [1] and Audio Engineering Society Meetings.[2]
