Hi, I’m Alessandro, sound engineer and sound designer, based in Berlin.
. Sound design for hardware and software, including preset creation.
. Production of sample packs for various platforms and DAWs.
. Recording, mixing and mastering.
. FOH Live sound engineer for bands/DJs, also available for tours.
. Foldback Live sound engineer for bands, also available for tours.
. Excellent teamwork skills, flexibility in different environments due to broad experience working with different job profiles and unusual timetables (shifts, weekends, holidays).
. Excellent communication skills.
. Good at working under pressure and used to working to tight deadlines.
. Excellent project management, organisation and leadership skills.
In 2005 I received a degree in audio engineering from SAE (Milan).
Between 2005 and 2009 I worked for Radio Italia S.p.A. as a ProTools operator, foldback audio engineer for live events, and broadcasting engineer.
In the same period I toured and supported several bands as FOH engineer and stage manager.
In 2009 I moved to Berlin where I co-founded a music composition and sound design company called MirrorPro, and an experimental band named EFFTER, with which I released 3 albums and 12 Eps on different european labels including Danse Macabre and Believe Music.
I also have a drone/dark ambient project with which I collaborate with various artists and labels in Europe, and the debut album of my latest collaboration "apwnm x tannis" was released on the renowned US label Industrial Strength Records.
As sound designer I released several sample packs for Industrial Strength Samples and I worked with different artists and studios (most recently for Venezia Biennale and Babbel).
Parallel to my sound design work I have mixed and mastered several albums, and have continued working with live music for various clients, including IAMX, Sage/KitKat, K17 and Nuke Club in Berlin.
I have 20+ years of experience working with hardware/software, samplers, effects and drum machines, as well as analog/digital and modular synthesisers.
I have excellent knowledge of analogue and digital mixers, FX and dynamics racks, microphone and recording techniques, DAWs, sampling and synthesis.
