Usually, I bring you musicians, but today’s guest is someone equally fascinating from behind the scenes. Joining me is Max, a live sound engineer who has worked with major artists like Mayday, Bobby Chen, and Wang Fu in venues across Taiwan, Shanghai, and beyond.

Max is here to share his experiences and give us an inside look into the world of live sound. He will discuss how live sound engineering compares to studio work, what has changed over the years, and how he initially got into the profession. We’ll also talk about his journey across Asia, collaborating with big names, some unforgettable moments, and what local bands look for in their sound.

Max is a seasoned audio engineer with over two decades of experience in the live and studio scenes in Taiwan and China. He began his career in the late ’90s, focusing on P.A. system design and multitrack recording. Since then, he has collaborated with some of Asia’s most established artists and venues, including Mayday, Bobby Chen and notable live houses in Shanghai and Taipei. 

His expertise includes a wide range of audio work, from live concert mixing and studio recording to audio post-production for video. Since 2019, Max has been based at Rhythm Music Studio in New Taipei City, where he specializes in live sound mixing, audio recording/mixing and video productions. He also has a video project related to original music. (see YouTube link below)
