Tomas Suchanek

Mixing & Mastering Engineer

Tomas Suchanek on SoundBetter

I help rock and indie artists get mixes that feel alive — emotional, dynamic and punchy, without losing the original raw energy and grit. Working across rock, indie, alt-pop and cinematic styles, I focus on clarity, depth and a modern sound that still feels human and organic.

I'm a mixing engineer and multi-instrumentalist with a focus on rock, indie and alternative music. Over the years I’ve mixed songs for rock and indie bands, cinematic projects and my own artist releases. I’m obsessed with balancing guitars, bass and drums so they work together instead of just being next to each other, and I pay special attention to vocal presence and its emotional impact.

What you can expect:
• a clean and modern mix that translates well on headphones and speakers
• natural but powerful vocals
• detailed automation and musical dynamics
• fast communication and easy revision process

If you're looking for a mixer who understands rock/indie aesthetics but can also bring modern polish and depth, I’d love to hear your track.

Let’s make something you’re proud of.

Interview with Tomas Suchanek

  1. Q: What's your typical work process?

  2. A: Getting a good sleep and cup of strong green tea in the beginning works fine. Then I'll go through the stems, do basic routing, prepare busses, FX, gain staging and prepare a raw mix. Then I'll identify whether there's something that needs further editing - can be timing issues between drums/bass, guitar, vocals timing and tuning. If there are such problems, I'll reach out to my client and discuss it with them. I don't need everything to be perfectly polished, if it doesn't fit the idea of the mix we agree on.

  3. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  4. A: I've got HS8 monitors with sub and different pairs of headphones - Neumann NDH30, ATH R70x, then some consumer level headphones for referencing.

  5. Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

  6. A: I grew up on bands like RATM, RHCP, Pearl Jam, NIN and all these 90s legends. Back at my mixing beginning I've watched veterans like Chris Lorde Alge, Andy Wallace, Steve Albini giving their short clips on YouTube and tried to learn something from them. However throughout the years, I've learned that you need to go your own way and nowadays I'm trying to bring my own signature to the music I'm mixing.

  7. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  8. A: Usually mixing and mastering. Lots of my clients also come back for vocal editing and additional vocal production. My wife is a long-time vocal coach and we've recorded countless hours of vocals together.
