Ché Costa

Audio engineer and music producer with 30+ years of hands-on experience across the full audio production chain: recording, editing, cleanup, mixing, mastering and vocal production. Worked on projects ranging from nationally released music in Brazil to independent productions with artists in the USA, Portugal, Germany and the UK. Primary DAW is Cubase, with solid experience in Pro Tools.

Comfortable receiving and delivering in any format — project delivery is always DAW-agnostic when working with stems or WAV files.

Deep sensitivity for voice: timbre, clarity, emotional nuance, intelligibility and tonal comfort. Experienced in treating voices to remove harsh or unpleasant frequencies so every voice sounds smooth, natural and engaging. My English is advanced for reading and writing, and my spoken English is at a working, conversational level — enough for basic calls and collaboration.

Ready to contribute to remote audio projects involving voice AI, dubbing, audiobook production, podcast engineering, creator services and multilingual content workflows.
