Sound Design Breakdown: 2025 Mandarins

In this video, we sit down with Trent Gronewold, front ensemble arranger and co–sound designer for the Mandarins Drum & Bugle Corps, to break down the key sound design moments from their 2025 production, “If I Must Fall.” This is Part 1 of a 3-part series, focusing on how the Mandarins built their sound world from the very beginning—starting with visual inspiration, curated synth patches, and a core sonic identity that carried through the entire show. You’ll hear how: ✅ Sound design was developed before a single note was written ✅ A single cello-trumpet patch became the foundation of the show ✅ A four-note motif unified acoustic and electronic elements ✅ Motion, automation, and live control created evolving textures ✅ A “Stranger Things”-inspired bass sound added energy without distraction ✅ The iconic “Transformers” section used sound to drive tempo, props, and impact Whether you’re a sound designer, educator, front ensemble arranger, or marching arts fan, this breakdown offers a rare inside look at how modern sound design supports — and elevates — elite drum corps performance.
