Sander van der Heide (Senior Mastering Engineer)

During his study at the conservatory of Rotterdam, Sander van der Heide started his mastering career in 1993 at Wisseloord Studios. He learned his first skills from engineer and good friend, Ronald Prent. It's then that he worked with acts like UB40, Golden Earring, Marco Borsato, Anouk, Bløf and Guano Apes. After 10 years of mastering in a far from perfect mastering room, he crossed the border to Belgium and worked as a mastering engineer at the pristine mastering suite of Galaxy Studios. He became an expert in mastering surround for DVD and SACD with projects like Clouseau, PUR and Marco Borsato. Finally he settled at Polyhymnia International where he build his own mastering set up, giving him the opportunity to evolve his mastering skills to perfection. Not having reached this point, Sander is amazed by the fact that time and time again he develops new mastering techniques and enjoys mastering more than ever.
