Dante Hooks

I am an audio engineer with hands-on experience in studio recording, live sound mixing, and remote production, delivering clear, intelligible audio across spoken-word and music projects.

As a freelancer since 2018, I have edited, mixed, and restored recordings for independent artists and digital media, repairing clipped and noisy audio to achieve publishable quality and preparing final files for delivery.

In live settings I mix multi-performer hip-hop showcases, configure consoles and microphones, monitor gain staging and dynamics, record performances for post-production, and troubleshoot technical issues to keep events running smoothly.

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Audio Production and bring reliable technical setup, collaborative communication with artists and producers, and a focus on consistent levels and creative deadlines.
