Beginner to advanced mix engineers looking to improve their mixes

Are your mixes sounding dull and lifeless? Lacking the clarity and punch of the pro’s mixes? Then this is the course for you! In this 11.5 hour intensive course, you’ll watch me take a track from scratch to a final polished mix. You’ll receive the full free multitrack download for the song “Had A Feeling” that I mix in this course, so you can follow along with me every step of the way. I hold no secrets back in this course, giving you all of my mixing knowledge that I’ve developed over the last decade and some pearls of wisdom along the way. After completing this course you will have learnt my step-by-step mix process that you can harness to get consistent, dynamic and impactful mixes every time. I take you through all of my favourite plugins and processing tips and tricks that I’ve learnt from the pro’s, as well as the important mix DON’T’S! You’ll learn how to adopt the efficient mix mindset and mix philosophy that will stop you from going down the mix rabbit hole and keep you on track. Want to take your mixes to the next level and close the gap between your mixes and the pro’s? Let’s get started then shall we! NOTE – I utilise Pro Tools as my DAW for this course but everything I teach can be replicated in any other DAW that you may be using.
