Masahiko Sunami – Sound Engineer

Masahiko Sunami

Live Sound Engineering

As a live sound engineer in Los Angeles, I have worked with over hundreds of artists in genres from rock, R&B, soul, rockabilly to progressive rock, country to world music. With my background as a musician, I understand the needs of performing artists and strive to capture the purity of their sound regardless of the idiosyncrasies of the venue or equipment. I’ve worked with hundreds of established and emerging artists, bands, and professional speakers in various capacities including FOH and Monitor engineer. It’s my goal to create an environment where artists can fully express themselves and the audience can fully appreciate their art.

I am patient, courteous, and I take a logical & objective approach to all of my work to ensure best result for my clients. I pride myself on quality of my work. Contact me if you would like to work with a sound engineer with skill and experience!
