Hi. I'm John, a sound designer and audio professional

ABOUT

Better Sound by Design

With over 20 years of professional experience working in sound I have developed my own techniques that lead to a signature sound. Whether working in a studio, mixing for live entertainment, creating sound from scratch, or developing custom solutions to complicated system integrations, my results are unique, tested, and reliable.

ACHIEVEMENTS

Synthesis: the combining of often diverse conceptions into a coherent whole

Much like the concept of synthesis, my varied background in multiple audio industries combines to create a wide variety of experiences for multiple media types.
