In this hands-on module, students will learn the core principles and processes that form the foundation of every great mix. From properly preparing a DAW session to understanding the roles of EQ, compression, reverb, delay, and modulation, this module will guide you through the complete mixing workflow with a focus on real-world applications.
Whether you're mixing vocals, synths, drums, or acoustic instruments, this module ensures you understand how to balance your mix elements in a way that feels dynamic, musical, and emotionally impactful.
Preparing Session for Mixing
Learn how to set up your project for an efficient mix. Explore track organisation, colour-coding, naming conventions, bus routing, aux channels, and the use of templates. Discover why proper session prep ensures faster decisions and better mixes.
Gain Staging
Understand analog vs. digital gain staging and how it affects your mix headroom and clarity. Explore LUFS, RMS, peak levels, floating point vs. fixed point processing, and how to prevent unwanted distortion or clipping in your chain.
Dynamic Processing 1: Compressor
Discover why compression is utilised in mixing and explore key parameters, including threshold, ratio, knee, attack, and release. Compare various compressor types: VCA, FET, Opto, Tube and understand when and why to use each.
Dynamic Processing 2: Compression Techniques
Dive deeper into compression with techniques like parallel compression, sidechaining, glue compression, and genre-specific dynamic shaping. Understand upward vs. downward compression and their use in vocals, drums, and instruments.
Noise Gate and Gating Processes
Clean up unwanted background noise and mic bleed using noise gates. Understand hysteresis, attenuation range, and how to use gates creatively on reverb or delay returns for rhythmic and spatial effects.
EQ in Detail Part 1 – Additive EQ
Learn the art of boosting frequencies the right way. Understand the parametric EQ layout and explore musical boosts to add air, presence, or warmth using stock plugins and analog emulations.
EQ in Detail Part 2 – Subtractive EQ
Discover how subtractive EQ can help remove mud, harshness, or resonances to create clean and focused mixes. Learn to use spectrum analysers and reference EQs to guide your decisions.
Time-Based Effects: Delay
Explore different delay types, mono, stereo, tape, ping-pong and their creative uses in a mix. Learn how to sync delays with tempo and automate them for transitions, vocals, and spatial depth.
Time-Based Effects: Chorus, Modulation & Flanger
Learn how modulation effects like chorus, flanger, and phaser add movement and width to static sounds. Discover how to use them subtly on vocals or dramatically on synths to enhance harmonic richness.
Mixing Approach: Fixing Common Problems
Understand common mix issues like muddiness, phase problems, harshness, and lack of punch. Explore philosophies like the New York, London, and Nashville mixing schools for creative problem-solving.
Approach to Get Clean, Punchy, and Dynamic Mixes
Master the techniques that give your mix energy and clarity from gain matching and additive EQ to buss compression and routing. Discover how professional engineers craft tight, modern mixes across various genres.
This module is designed for producers who already understand the basics of mixing and want to take their skills to a professional level. You’ll explore high-level mixing concepts such as automation for movement, advanced saturation and distortion techniques, tape emulations, multiband processing, and dynamic spatial treatment using reverb and delay.
You’ll also dive into the science and art of mastering, including how to prepare mixes for streaming platforms, how to use metering tools, and how to create competitive loudness without sacrificing dynamic range or clarity. Learn to master using Ozone, FabFilter, Waves, Plugin Alliance, and more.
Whether you're working on EDM, hip-hop, pop, or film music, this module equips you with the creative and technical edge needed to produce clean, loud, and emotionally engaging tracks that stand up in commercial playlists and club systems.
Automation to Create Movement in the Mix
Add dynamics and emotion through automation. Learn to automate volume, panning, filters, FX sends, and plugin parameters using DAW lanes or hardware controllers. Understand the 3dB pan law and movement techniques.
Saturation and Distortion
Explore saturation types: tape, tube, and digital to add harmonic warmth and colour. Discover when and how to utilise distortion creatively to thicken sounds and add character.
Tape Emulations, Soft Clipping & Aliasing Filters
Delve into tape emulation plugins like Slate Digital and Waves to replicate analog sound. Understand aliasing, soft clipping, and how floating-point calculations affect plugin behaviour and mix tone.
Multiband Compression, De-essing, Limiter & Maximiser
Learn how to tame specific frequency bands, remove vocal sibilance, and control dynamics with multiband compression. Understand how limiters and maximisers create loud yet clean mixes for streaming.
Reverb and Spatial Treatment
Master convolution vs. algorithmic reverbs and their parameters (decay, pre-delay, damping). Choose the right type of plate, hall, and spring for vocals, drums, and synths. Explore spatial effects for stereo depth.
Metering: Analog vs Digital
Understand LUFS, VU, RMS, dBFS, dBV, and more. Learn how to calibrate levels for mixing and mastering using Izotope Insight, VU meters, and correlation meters. Separate loudness from level perception.
Introduction to Mastering
Learn why mastering is essential and how it differs from mixing. Explore the basic mastering chain: EQ, compression, stereo imaging, limiting, and gain staging. Understand loudness standards for release.
Mastering for CD and Streaming (Ozone Focus)
Explore the differences in mastering for CDs, vinyl, and streaming platforms like Spotify or Apple Music. Use Izotope Ozone to finalise tracks with multiband processors, maximisers, vintage EQs, and imagers.
Dither, Aliasing, Quantisation Errors & Noise Shaping
Understand how dithering reduces quantisation noise during bit-depth conversion. Learn about aliasing filters and sample rate conversion, and when to use noise shaping in your mastering workflow.
Using FabFilter Plugins
Deep dive into FabFilter Pro-Q, Pro-C, Saturn, and Pro-L for precision EQ, compression, creative saturation, and transparent limiting. Learn workflow tips for both mixing and mastering.
Using Waves Plugins
Explore iconic Waves plugins like SSL E-Channel, CLA-76, L2 Limiter, and H-Reverb. Learn how to integrate them into your mixing and mastering chain for professional polish.
Master Using Izotope and Plugin Alliance
Master your tracks using Plugin Alliance tools like Brainworx, Maag EQ, and Elysia compressors. Combine them with Izotope Ozone for advanced hybrid mastering chains and tonal balance..
