Hey, Edu Prado here!
For the past 15+ years, I've been delivering polished, emotionally impactful audio for artists, labels, film, TV, and immersive media, with a proven record of combining artistic vision and technical expertise.
I specialise in mixing, music production, audio editing, and composition, with a strong background in orchestral and opera recording, as well as contemporary, folk, pop rock, electronic, and cinematic music. My work includes a GRAMMY 2026 nomination (Best Opera Recording – Mixing Engineer), a Gramophone Award nomination, and RTÉ Folk Award nominations for Best Folk Album and Track with Inni-K.
Clients trust me for musical sensitivity, technical precision, and clear communication. I’ve worked on projects ranging from BBC TV series and K-Dramas to award-nominated albums, multiple orchestral recordings, and immersive productions. Whether it’s a clean, transparent mix or a bold, character-driven production, my focus is always on serving the song and the storytelling.
I’m also the founder of Edu Prado Sounds (EPS), an official Native Instruments partner, creating bespoke sample libraries used by composers worldwide — keeping my workflow unique, modern, and sonically distinctive.
If you’re looking for high-end sound, reliability, and a collaborative approach, I’d love to hear about your project.

Endorse Edu Prado1 Reviews

Edu is one of the most versatile producers and sound engineers I’ve ever worked with. As an orchestral composer and musician, he understands the artistic work not only instinctively, but also academically and technically, which makes the entire process exceptionally smooth. That rare combination of musical intelligence and engineering expertise is what truly sets his work apart. I’ve worked with Edu across studio sessions, film music, albums, live recordings, and post-production, and he consistently delivers outstanding sound quality. And most of all, he's an absolute pleasure to work with!
