Available to hire
I am a education professional and audio production specialist with over 18 years in the music and audiovisual industry. I founded Manuel Restrepo Mastering Studio and Aurora Acústica, offering production, mixing, and mastering services as well as architectural acoustics design, noise control, and audiovisual system integration for venues and multimedia projects. I also teach at university level and lead consultancy on acoustic design and live event reinforcement systems.
My work blends teaching, consulting, and project management for sound reinforcement, post-production, and sonic design for visual and interactive media, with a focus on delivering high-quality audio solutions for concerts, studios, and multimedia productions.
