John "Bear" Arispe on SoundBetter

A professional mix engineer and touring live front of house engineer and in-ear/wedge monitor mixer with experience in stadiums down to the smallest of venues and churches on a budget. Experience encompasses systems design and installation on all professional levels.

My abilities as an audio engineer have created the opportunity to blur boring standards and merge worldly culture into my work and presentation everywhere. Never having a standard approach to any show or artist’s vision, I try to listen too and glaze over a multitude of music from around the world to give me a broader perspective on what audio communities are creating and defining daily. I then try to build off that creativity and approach each show above and beyond and act in creating the sound for my artists. At times my methodology maybe unorthodox in setup or programming but, I always arrive with a sound that appeals to my artist, their audiences and my surrounding community of peers. In the end, I get to do what I love best - mix music for the emotion that it evokes.
