I caught up with Ric by phone in his studio in Detroit where I asked him what makes a great sound effect great. No small feat for a guy who hasn’t hit 40 yet.

So he wrote the go-to manual for recording and creating top of the line sounds effects. Searching several years ago for books and articles on recording and sound editing, he discovered that there was very little out there.
In addition to building an enviable presence in the industry, Ric is also the author of “The Sound Effects Bible”. Blastwave FX is an off-the-shelf sound effects supplier providing one of the largest selections of sound effects in the world. If you have anything to do with sound effects you’ll instantly recognize the names of his companies: the Detroit Chop Shop supplies made to order sound effects for companies with names like Disney. Not only is he constantly updating and enlarging his bank of sounds, he is also ensuring that his skills and knowledge are passed on to the current and next generation of sound designers. Aside from loving what he does, what makes Ric special in the sound effects industry is his willingness to share his knowledge. If his wife didn’t insist he be home by 5, he’d work all day and all night.
