RE•SET: Mix Session Preparation Course

About Course

Session Preparation is the foundation for creating a great mix. 

Much like anything else, core fundamentals are essential for anything you want to be highly skilled at in life. Mixing is no different--you have to pay attention to all of the nuances such as the recorded vocal quality, having to clean up vocals, manual clip gain, melodyne if necessary, pitch and time alignment, major and minor decibel moves, bringing out the essence of a record BEFORE actually mixing/mastering, etc. Although the base is the final recording, the EDITING before/during/after mixing is what separates a good mix from a great one. This is why we call our site re•academy--record/edit academy.

Think of it this way: The master is only good as the mix. The mix is only as good as the recording. Consider the quality of source material!

If you want to learn the techniques that will separate your records from the rest, look no further than this foundational course on mixing. 
 
Make the best sounding record as possible, no matter who it is. Welcome to the Re•Set Course!
