One of the music industry’s most sought-after engineers, he’s collected 18 Grammy Awards and over forty #1 hits, while mixing records for superstars including Kendrick Lamar, Jon Batiste, Post Malone, and Lizzo, amongst many others. Now he’s applying his years of experience at the highest levels to crafting a line of tools that creators like himself can rely on, the MM Series.
From the first time Manny picked up a pair of Audeze headphones many years ago, he knew they were something special, the first headphones he had ever heard that were accurate enough to mix on, confidently. Since then, he’s worked with the designers and engineers at Audeze, offering feedback and input as he mixed hit records using the LCD-X, LCD-4, and LCD-5.
In collaborating with Audeze engineers to create his first signature headphone, Manny took prototypes with him wherever he worked, not just to iconic Larrabee Studios, but to locations across the globe. Using the headphones in a variety of settings, Manny was thrilled to mix and master efficiently and confidently, and they quickly became vital to his workflow. Trusting their output, he used a pre-production headphone to mix Kendrick Lamar's #1 album "Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers" in early 2022.
Now Manny and Audeze present the MM Series, tools designed for the lifestyle of passionate creators who work when and where the inspiration strikes. Every MM Series product leverages Audeze’s patented technologies together with Manny’s studio expertise. The MM Series delivers studio-quality sound, inside and outside the studio for mixes that translate reliably and records that capture the emotion the artist intended.
