Ethan Martinez

Ethan Martinez is Head of Sound Design at RadioPro, where he works on audio engineering and sound production. He has more than a decade of experience in the field.

He studied sound engineering, covering mixing, mastering and production, and was known during his studies for attention to detail and for experimenting with audio techniques.

He began as an audio technician in a recording studio on projects ranging from albums to commercial work, then moved to a media production company as a sound engineer, responsible for audio on several television and film productions.

Before RadioPro he was Lead Audio Designer at a video game studio, where he worked on immersive audio environments.

At RadioPro he leads a team of sound engineers and audio specialists and is responsible for the audio quality of broadcast and digital content. He keeps the team working on new techniques as audio technology changes.

His team works with music curation and marketing so that sound design supports the overall content strategy rather than sitting apart from it.

He thinks about sound as a way of evoking feeling and connecting with listeners, and describes his aim as a sonic identity for RadioPro that people recognise.
