Thank you for your comment. I randomly clinked on a bunch into the articles at
Category:American audio engineers, and indeed, most of them don't have the sources to meet
WP:GNG already in their article. It might be that audio-engineers don't attract that much attention for working with stars. I think the solution to this is either to propose creating a special inclusion criteria for talented technicians working with stars, or begin a large purge of audio engineer articles from Wikipedia.

Delete. I always feel bad supporting the deletion of long articles, but the problem here is that after you've gone through the article all you know is that he's a person doing a job. The famous people he's worked with don't matter, because notability isn't acquired by association. What we're left with is just someone doing his job, and you're not notable just for doing your job. This page would be better if rendered down to bullet points and moved to LinkedIn, which is where I suspect it really belongs. The closest this guy comes to having done something notable is his work on in-ear technology, but even on this there's no obvious novelty or notability. Yes, he got the first Ukrainian act to use in-ears, but that's not per se that notable. Whilst the recent additions of more references have attempted to be helpful, they unfortunately emphasise the key point: he's just a guy, doing a job. He may be respected by his peers, but if that were the criterion for notability I'd bet dollars to doughnuts that most Wikipedia editors would qualify for their own articles immediately. Sorry, but this doesn't belong here.
