After twenty years of making and performing music across genres, stages and listening environments around the world, Jannis Bentler came to mastering with a simple conviction: there is a more musical way to do it.

Mastering is often treated as the final technical step. To Jannis, it is the opposite: a highly sensitive, deeply musical process that ultimately shapes how a song reaches and moves its listener. The first question is never what needs fixing? — it is what needs to be felt?

Technology follows that intention, not the other way around. And so does communication: with artists, producers and mixing engineers. Because the best master isn’t made in isolation. It is the final step in making sure the listener feels what the artist wants them to feel.

Going deeper into mastering meant going deeper into how audio equipment actually works — power supplies, grounding, cables, components and circuits.

Along the way, Jannis learned from some of the finest old masters of studio and broadcast engineering. Drawing on this knowledge and years of hands-on experience, he now also offers

Power & Grounding, Studio Electrical Planning & Consulting

— helping studios build a clean, reliable foundation for great sound.

Over the years, Jannis's work as a mastering engineer led him to experiment with, modify and eventually design his own speakers.

What started as a personal pursuit naturally evolved into OTOMO, a speaker company founded with his longtime studio partner Mathias Schober.

Bringing together their experience as musicians, mastering and mixing engineers, DJs, sound aesthetes and design lovers, they create customizable HiFi speakers built around one conviction: exceptional, organic and tangible sound starts with a deep understanding of music and electrical power.
