DESCRIPCIÓ DEL CURS

Mixing and mastering course at EUMES

We often think that watching tutorials on Youtube and learning the top 10 most used tricks, our subjects will sound great and the reality is another: We have to understand from the root in detail the tools that make possible these processes of dynamics, compression, saturation, mixing… Then apply it creatively to our songs.

Through this mixing and mastering course focused on the concept (in the box) you will get to know and master the techniques and tools that will allow you to make the right decisions so that your works sound with professional quality.

We could define mixing and mastering as the last creative processes within music production. The mix allows the elements to interact and communicate with each other, achieving definition and positioning; while the Mastering should make the whole set sound right on any device and be on par with other commercial productions of the same genre.

We will go straight to the advanced techniques that you need so much to get out of this limit of sound quality in which you are stuck, you will get a more objective criterion to improve and perfect the mixes according to the style and needs. You’ll master analog and digital tools that professional studios use, practicing with real projects, and you’ll notice a world of difference in sound quality before and after through practice.

Of course, we will guide you step by step to mix and master your own projects, match that sound you were looking for in a reference track, mix and polish any style and reach the demand of industry standards.
