Beinhorn helped to create the Ultra Analog recording format which uses two-inch tape recorded at 7.5 ips (inches per second) tape speed. This approach brings out the low-end of the sound spectrum, which is good for the type of bands Beinborn produces (
Soundgarden,
Soul Asylum, Red Hot Chilli Peppers,
Ozzy Osbourne).
Some of
Beinhorn's work can be found on the soundtrack album for the 1999 Susan Sarandon/Natalie Portman movie Anywhere but Here;
