It is not important what to do, important is how to do.

Imagination, creativity and flexibility is a sign of healthy intelligence. thereby experiences can be achieved much more intense. Through the experience, the attitude is much more positive and more livable.
How important is our work for everyone? Only be a moneymaker alone is not enough. It should be more than just work, it should be a determination. The determination to renew itself, to prosper or set high goals is a need that our attitude has a positive effect. At this point is the effectiveness of our work at the highest level and more exciting.

Therefore, it is not important what to do, important is how to do.

Reviews about me

MY PROFESSIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS

Below, you will find a list of the people I have had the pleasure of working with on a number of projects. Feel free to contact any of them to discuss the contributions I made to their projects, or get in touch with me and let’s talk about how I can put my skills to use for you.

I had the pleasure to meet Yilmaz at some DAS AUDIO seminars. He has the ability to make sound topics enjoyable for people regardless their knowledge on sound. He's got the ability to listen to others and a friendly way of gathering with colleagues. He's built up his reputation based on passion and hard work. Keep it up Yilmaz

IGNACIO CHULIA MARIN, DAS AUDIO SPAIN

As a musician AND technician you have more than the most of your collegues. And you have a long experience with many kinds of music. So I guess people will discover soon your qualities also over the sea. Good luck!

DANIEL A. MEYER, M&M SWIZTERLAND

Luckily my paths has crossed with dear Yilmaz in many of the projects I've managed. I was privileged to do so not only because he is a good sound engineer but also he has extensive experience in troubleshooting live sound systems which helped us to overcome many problems and obstructions along the way. He is an asset to every project big and small.

SEROL AGAZAT, PRODUCTION MANAGER CIRCUE D SOLEIL

Yilmaz is one of a kind in the proaudio business.
He is not only good at what he is doing as a specialist but he is also a leading figure, an establisher, an innovator, a mentor who maximizes the potential of any group of people/parties/companies he is involved in.
He is a 'transformer', seeking the best for music with the best professional manner.

GOKHAN DENEC, TEACHER UNIVERSITY ISTANBUL

Worked with him several times here in Turkey. Great mixer, always with a positive attitude.Gets the job done no matter what the circumstances are.I've never left a single gig unhappy that he mixed.

ARIKAN SIRAKAYA, DRUMMER AND STUDIO ENGINEER

We met at a festival in Antalya, Turkey. Yilmaz was mixing the headliner.
He's a very friendly engineer with a relaxed approach, but was working out every detail of his show. We met again in a few trade shows, where he taught me a few tricks on products there.
Overall, someone you can talk to and rely on.

JOSÉ GAUDIN, MEYER SOUND

Yilmaz Yeniyol is a professional. Too many Sound Engineers, Organizations and Singers find true technic and best way from him knowledge. Bu not only Enginner! He is best friend and best motivation man.

MURAT TANRIVERDI, PROGRAMMER IT

If you want to work with a person who makes a difference with his knowledge, energy and enthusiasm, Yılmaz is the right guy. We have been missing him here in Turkey.

ARTUN SÜRMELI, KEYBOARD AND BAND LEADER

Sevval Sam hired Yilmaz more than once for several productions, events and different disciplines in the last 5 years, We got good response from our clients and excellent feedback about Yilmaz from different productions and events. He is a reliable and experienced professional whom we hope to be working with for many years to come.
