I have made it my business to soak up the secrets behind the most recognized mixing engineers worldwide. I want to apply them to your production to evoke strong emotions in your audience.
Hey I am Martin Ambrosius from Argentina and Mixing Music is my passion. I do wake up at 5am every day, I do read self development and mindset books, then I go swimming, I do take care of my Macros and then I start working. My perfect week is about training my ears, learning new Mixing skills, playing e-bass, mixing a live band, making recordings in the Studio and mix as much Music as I can.

I get that is another world but this world is just as important as the Music itself. You do need both to success.
