About Me
I'm DeVonne Knights. Most people know me as Knice, and on a lot of records I'm credited as Knice On The Sonics. I'm a Brooklyn-born recording, mixing and mastering engineer, and I've been in the craft since the mid 2000s. I graduated from SAE Institute and came up through the ranks at Platinum Sound, the Midtown Manhattan facility co-founded by Wyclef Jean and Jerry Wonder Duplessis, where I joined the senior staff as a specialist in immersive mixing.
Today I run my own room in NYC while serving as head engineer for French Montana and A&R for Coke Boys Records. My deepest run is with Jay Critch: two full albums, Jugg Season and Humble Giant, plus singles going back to 2019. On the Coke Boys side I've delivered Coke Wave 3.5: Narcos with 21 of its 22 tracks in 
, Wave Gods 2 work including "Unlocked" with Ye, and singles for French Montana with Lil Durk and Max B.
In 2026 a record I mixed went No. 1 on two charts and was nominated for Best Collaboration at the . French Montana and Max B records I engineered have landed in Madden NFL 27 and NBA 2K. Away from the desk I train the next wave of engineers out of my own room.
“Our job as engineers is to inspire artists.”
