Adam Cesarz
Adam Cesarz
Hi there! My name is Adam Cesarz, and I’m all about music! I’ve spent seven summers of my life studying music and trumpet performance at Interlochen arts camp up in the northern part of Michigan. That passion for music guided me to pursue a degree in audio music production at Ohio University in Athens, Ohio. I mixed solo artists and bands on a Rupert Neve 5088 console using Apple Logic as well as Avid Pro Tools. I also did some field audio work for a pilot TV show in the area, capturing sounds for foley and recording room tone with my handy-dandy Zoom H4n.
I also love to sing! Almost too much. When I was studying to get my audio degree at Ohio University, I sang in a couple a cappella groups (check out Section 8 on YouTube!) and was even a member of the Singing Men of Ohio. In the meantime, I love singing, writing songs, and playing with my VoiceLive Touch as well as working with the program Reason.
So, if you ever have any questions about gear, guitars, or microphones, or if you’re just looking to get into music for the first time, then give me a call, and I’ll help you out!
As your personal contact here at Sweetwater, please let me know anytime I can offer help or advice.

Interview with Adam...

I've been buying my new gear exclusively from Sweetwater for about ten years now. Adam has been my Sales Engineer the whole time. He makes the extra effort to reach out to me about how my previous purchases are treating me, and has helped me acquire the gear I need. Great company with amazing staff.

Adam Cesarz, does a incredible job and is brilliant at music and instrument knowledge.. He goes beyond measure to help me. Thanks Adam for your support on answering my sometimes ridiculous questions.

Adam and Anthony were outstanding. Adam helped me with my original order and even contacted me to let me know that it was on back order and was I ok with it being a while before I would receive my mixer. He went out of his way to change my order when I got impatient and changed my mind about the unit I wanted. When I got the original unit and it didn't work they went above and beyond to quickly get me a replacement and took care of all the details. I was super impressed and will definitely use Sweetwater again for all my audio needs.
