Hi, I’m David Omdahl, a Munich-based sound engineer and music technology specialist with British/US-American citizenship. I bring extensive experience in recording, editing, mixing, and mastering across voiceover, audiobooks, music, and multimedia projects. I work with Pro Tools, Logic, Ableton, FL Studio and Studio One to deliver high-quality speech recordings and polished sound. Since April 2022 I’ve been self-employed as a Tonmeister, taking on Hörbücher recording and postproduction, and I work with partners like Bayerischer Rundfunk, Bavaria Musikstudios and Iyuno for streaming content on Netflix, Prime Video, Apple TV, and Disney+. I also mix live sound for events and continue exploring new projects in the studio and on location.
