inoarb on SoundBetter

More than 20 years of experience in Music Production and Sound Engineering.

I love computer sound, I believe nowadays technology has gotten to emulate beautiful analog sounds, but digital. My mixes are a reflection of this taste, I combine the warmth oldie, with the deep and crispy of the new era.
I first started as a musician playing keys when I was 7, then... guitar, bass, drums, saxophone, trumpet, clarinet, piano, etc... I had the ability to just play almost anything. Then when studying music and composition, I got to learn sound engineer also, and then I discover the magic of electronic music.
With all of this on the mix, I did a few productions between Santiago and Buenos Aires.
While I was studying Ableton Live in BsAs I switch to becoming a yoga teacher, then I became a dad and switch to software engineer and now that I'm in the states I work in a Bakery.
My new life in the states has brought me the opportunity to comeback to do music... I'm back mixing, mastering, recording, co-producing, creating songs, etc...
I'll bring distinction to your track by adding a nice mix of tube/analog sound, with deep/pristine digital sound.
