About

Hi, I’m Michael, a seasoned audio producer and studio owner based in Austin, TX. I engineer multitrack recordings, post-production mixes, and oversee live and broadcast sound for artists and shows, including The Kill Tony Show. Since joining Golden Pony Pro, subscribership has grown notably, and I’ve helped deliver broadcast-friendly audio to stages across the country. I run a studio called Austin Sound Machine where I collaborate with clients ranging from Netflix, WWE, Gillette, Comedy Central, to musicians and brands, shaping clear, immersive sound for recordings, broadcasts, and live performances.
