About

I’m Ramkumar Kizhakkuveettil, a sound engineer and sound designer based in Mumbai, with 4+ years of studio experience across 50+ projects, including high-profile OTT series and feature films. I specialize in Sound FX editing, dialogue editing, and stereo/immersive mixing (Dolby Atmos, 5.1, and 7.1), ensuring deliveries meet platform loudness and QA expectations.

In my work, I blend strong technical skills in Pro Tools and Reaper with calm, high-pressure problem-solving. I’ve contributed as an assistant re-recording engineer and Sound FX editor on notable Hindi and Marathi productions, and I also handle audio drama, podcasts, and fast-turnaround micro-dramas. My background also includes 5 years at sea, which sharpened teamwork, safety mindset, and reliability in demanding timelines.
