What you are going to learn

This is the missing link in your production workflow.

This class is for anyone who has made or recorded music and wondered why their tracks don't sound like the tracks they hear on the radio, Spotify, SoundCloud, or anywhere else. 
In this class we start with the very basics of mixing, and work all the way up to finishing great tracks. I walk you through every step of the process, and explain my logic behind every decision I make. I'll even walk you through a complete mix from beginning to end.
The goal of this class is for you to learn how to take your tracks from good to great.
Here is a list of some of the topics we will cover:
  • The Listening Environment
  • Headphone Mixing vs. Studio Monitors
  • Preparing a Track for Mixing
  • Tuning Instruments
  • Grouping Tracks
  • Approaches to Mixing
  • Subtractive Mixing
  • Panning
  • Phantom Center
  • Phasing
  • Working with Frequencies
  • The EQ as the Scalpel of Mixing
  • Creating Definition with EQ
