Hi, I’m Simone Franco, a sound engineer with a passion for capturing and shaping sound in studios, on stages, and for film. I love collaborating with artists to bring their ideas to life and pushing the boundaries of live and recorded sound. Based in Volvera, Italy, I’ve worked on events from local venues to Eurovision, focusing on precise FOH mixing, recording, and post-production. When I’m not engineering, I’m exploring new gear and techniques to keep learning and growing.
