Mixdown
The mixdown is one of the most important steps of a producer. No matter how cool your track is, it will never work without a technically clean mixdown.
“Clean” doesn’t mean that everything should sound clinical. The challenge is to make a mixdown sound so that all single tracks harmonise with each other, without clashing and sound powerful.
Yes, of course, mastering will save everything! But if your mixdown sounds awful, your mastering engineer won’t be able to work miracles.
At the end of this coaching you will be able to create a mixdown that is clean, transparent, punchy – and works in the club.
Together with our coach you´ll work step-by-step on your technical skills to create a phat and clean mixdown. In our studio in Berlin, all instrument groups and frequency ranges are covered to optimally prepare your tracks for the final step, mastering.
The focus is on electronic club-oriented music.
