About This Class
Mixing can be a complicated, confusing subject. But it doesn't have to be! With just a few simple effects it can take a song from sounding dull, lifeless and messy to sounding clean, full and professional.
Music production and Audio Mixing can be SO simple when you know the basics. 
In this class, I’m going to teach you everything you need to know about mixing music to produce incredible sounding tracks.
In this class you will learn about:
<ul>
<li>The basics of mixing audio</li>
<li>Music production</li>
<li>How to prepare a track for mixing</li>
<li>Gain staging</li>
<li>Volume balancing</li>
<li>How to use busses</li>
<li>Compression</li>
<li>EQ</li>
<li>Panning</li>
<li>Reverb</li>
<li>Delay</li>
<li>Automation</li>
<li>Exciter</li>
<li>Distortion</li>
<li>Chorus</li>
<li>How to use reference tracks</li>
<li>&amp; more!</li>
</ul>
By the end of this course, you'll have an excellent understanding of how to mix music to confidently produce amazing music.
In this class, I demonstrate all of these mixing techniques using Logic Pro x, but the skills are applicable across music production programs, including Ableton Live 11 and FL Studio. 
I'd be more than happy to help you out, so please feel free to ask me any questions. You can write in the discussions or email me <a href="mailto:mikerjbarnes@gmail.com">HERE</a>.
(I highly recommend listening to this course with headphones/decent speakers. Some of the audio examples I present will be harder to hear through laptop or phone speakers.)
