Joel Gibson

I’m Joel Gibson, a budding sound engineer based in Manchester, with 3 years of studio experience at the University of Salford and a 1:1 in Creative Music Technology. I enjoy turning ideas into polished recordings by using both software and hardware, and I’m comfortable working end-to-end—from microphone technique and staging to recording, mixing, and organizing the practical side of live sound.

I’ve also built experience in live environments, including working with stage equipment and rigging PA/monitor systems at venues such as the Bridgewater Hall. Patient and confident with people, I bring the same calm, assertive communication I’ve used as a swimming teacher, and I’m motivated to keep improving my skills across live sound, studio workflows, and performance-focused audio setups.
