Mixing for Music Producers

This course is a comprehensive guide to mixing for music producers.

At the end of this course, your tracks will be transformed into radio-ready, commercial quality songs which you can pitch to labels, contests, or simply release for your fans.

I created this course because I wish someone had taught me these principles when I was just getting started producing music. I had spent all of my time learning about synthesizers, recording live instruments, drum programming, and audio unit processing. I had a pretty good knack for making cool sounds and composing songs, but once all of the elements were piled together, more often than not it sounded like a jumbled mess. It was nowhere near the clarity and punch I heard on the radio or professional tracks that I loved.

It was at that point I realized that I needed to develop my mixing skills in order to be a truly good producer.

That's why I created this course to save you the trouble and headache I experienced when trying to produce music without a good foundation in the principles of mixing.

This course will take you from a good producer to a great one.

It is true that the roles of mix engineer and producer are different. However, in these days of home recording and DAW-based music production, these roles will often overlap significantly.

In this course I will teach you all of the tools and tricks of professional mix engineers so that you can make your tracks shine with the commercial punch and clarity labels and fans want to hear.

We'll cover every aspect of mixing including: room acoustics, monitoring, mix preparation, equalization, compression, audio time and pitch editing, automation, plugin processing, return effects, and everything else in between.

Using 45 high definition video lectures, I'll walk you through the entire process of mixing from exporting your tracks all the way down to the exporting for mastering stage.

We'll be using Logic Pro X in this course. What if you use a different DAW? Well, this course is all about the theory, practice, and process of mixing. I teach you how to listen to your tracks, what to listen for, and how to creatively solve problems that may come up. Obviously, users of Logic will have a slight advantage since many of the tools we use will most likely be familiar. However, the concepts and techniques apply to every DAW so don't dismay if you are not a Logic user.

Even if you're sending off your tracks to a mix engineer, you don't want him or her to make all of your creative decisions. Being fluent in the language and technique of mixing will make you a vastly better producer.

really enjoyed

I really enjoyed this class and picked up several Logic "how-to" elements in addition to overall mixing concepts.

I really enjoyed Dylan's in-depth explanation of concepts but most appreciated learning the content in a 'linear' fashion.

Really enjoyed the course.

other than

Other than that - it's a very good course Dylan and I now look (excitedly) towards mixing my own tracks instead of relying on others to bring my vision to life.

Other than that, the instructor does a good job of keeping you engaged and he did help me to have a stronger understanding of mixing.

other daws

A lot of the techniques only apply to Logic and not necessarily other DAWs.

That being said, you can apply it to other DAWs & their native plugins or external plugins as each parameter is explained.

very detailed

Very detailed and straight to the point.

Could maybe be a bit more generic in some places for non logic/apple users - or if it is specifically aimed at logic/apple users make it clear in the course title Detailed lessons, very good if you're beginner or intermediate Very detailed and methodical presentation.

explaining things

The author is really good explaining things in detail and giving practical examples of every element of mixing Dylan is a great teacher.

Thanks Wish his speech would be a bit more acute and quicker when explaining things.

talking about

I had no idea what he was talking about (perhaps my ears are not as trained?)

but it would be good if he could narrow down and point out what he is talking about .

little more

Maybe a little more energy would be nice but that's just preference.

I was looking for something a little more advanced.
