I have an admission of guilt to make.
I used to spend weeks getting a single mix to sound right.
…Actually, it was worse than that.
There were times when I spent months on a project—sometimes more than a year!
Even then they never seemed to come out quite right. Something was missing. When I compared against major releases, or even some friends’ albums, something was just “off”.
The worst part wasn’t just how long they took or how they came out sounding either…
…
…It was how much time I wasted just spinning my wheels, going down rabbit holes for long hours of tweaking that somehow made everything sound worse, rather than better.
To be honest, it felt kind of unfair!
…To work on a song over and over again, label it “Final Final Mix 3 Really Final This Time”, only to take it out of the studio and realize that one of my earlier versions was much better!
The second guessing, the wasted time, the deflating car checks…
Maybe you can relate?
I felt like I just wasn’t “talented”.
…Or maybe I just had the wrong gear?
Maybe I needed even more countless hours of trial and error?
Or a few more YouTube binge watches of “tricks and tips”… or maybe some videos from truly great mixers?
But that wasn’t it.
I got into rooms with great gear. I spent countless more hours of blind trial and error. I watched the videos from the YouTubers (many of whose work and credentials were questionable…)
I even read the books and watched the courses from true mixing giants!
Some of them helped, but they didn’t always know exactly what they were doing or how to explain it—or how to adapt it to my situation or genres.
There was some fun inspiration and some cool little takeaways along the way, but none of them gave me a system or a complete understanding of mixing I could implement into my mixes right away that really moved the needle.
Does some of this sound familiar?
The only little thing that might separate me from others is that I took this so incredibly personally that I made it my life’s mission to figure out what separated the truly great mixers from myself and so many others!
I did this by interviewing them, by asking them detailed questions about their process, by opening up their sessions, producing masterclasses with them and helping them explain their approach from the start of the session to the final save.
…And the crazy thing?
Once I found the common threads that pulled all of their approaches together, I realized I had a true roadmap to mixing.
It was like a secret “blueprint” of a mixing process…
…a complete system that unbeknownst to them, so many of the great mixers shared in common!
Sure, there were little differences here and there…
The lines between steps sometimes got a little blurred. But squint even just a little bit and you could see the structure that was there:
Something like a universal approach to mixing—a fundamental order of operations that unlocked the process and made it seem… well… EASY.
Discovering what all the great mixers had in common was a revelation that immediately paid dividends.
All of a sudden, mixes weren’t taking weeks… they were taking hours.
Because honestly, that’s one of the things that the great mixers all had in common: They mixed surprisingly FAST.
And what was even more surprising wasn’t that they were so fast because they were so good…
No. It was the other way around!
They were so good, in part, because they were so fast.
But to mix fast, you need a system.
You need to know what to do, when. An order of operations and the confidence to create a situation where you can mix quickly, intuitively, and creatively WITH good results.
This was the part I truly LOVED.
The easier I made mixing, the better my mixes sounded!
The faster I made my process, the better my mixes got!
The more FUN I had doing it, the more thrilled I was with the sound!!
I can’t overstate this enough: I went from constant struggle in mixing, to having the easiest time ever, WHILE getting better results.
And it all came—not from blind trial and error—but from some easy-to-understand knowledge, hammered home with a few key exercises to make it all come together for good.
I made a good income mixing for years, working on fun projects with people and music I actually liked! And today I’m a platinum mastering engineer.
Through my work as a mix coach, I’ve refined this process even further and seen it work so well for so many others that I won’t rest until I get this framework for mixing in the hands of as many people as I can.
