Ron Reaves

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ron Reaves is an American audio engineer best known as the Front of House mixer for the Grammy Award ceremonies,[1][2][3] which he has been doing the FOH since the early 2000s.[4] He is also a regular FOH engineer for events at the East Room of the White House.[5]

Reaves, a guitar player himself, spoke with love and respect ("you don't tell The Edge to turn down his echo") for the musicians he mixes in a 2013 interview in Guitar Player: "I mix music for free. It's all the other s**t that I charge for."[4]
