Hey there,

I wanted to remind you once last time about my Mixing With 5 Plug-ins NAMM sale that ends tonight. 

​​​​​​​Consider this your last chance to join and learn everything you need to know about EQ, compression, reverb, delay and saturation at a $50 discount when you use the code NAMM50 during checkout.

Here's a preview of what you'll learn:

  • EQ'ing a dense vocal track so that the backup vocals don't overpower the lead vocals
  • Proper rebalancing after EQ'ing to keep each instrument in its place
  • Keeping the mid-range in check so you don't get boxy kick drums, honky guitars, muddy bass or nasally vocals. Take the guesswork out of EQ and follow along as I tell you exactly why I'm cutting and boosting each instrument.
  • Using presets to speed up your mixing (while still tweaking them for the best results)
  • Using serial compression when you need two different compressors to tackle different aspects of the vocal
  • Using different compressor styles for different sounds and character
  • Using sends to place your instruments in the mix according to how much impact you want them to have
  • Separating acoustic and electric guitars with different reverbs based on what they're playing
  • Using modulated stereo delays to add depth to keyboards
  • Placing backup vocals behind the lead using reverb and delay
  • The incredibly important aspect of how and why to EQ your reverbs for a cleaner mix
  • Using tape saturation to make your mixes smoother
  • Adding tape emulation on acoustic guitars to bring them out in the mix
  • Using saturation for dirty up your keyboard patch to make it more interesting
  • Using multiple saturation plug-ins to find which one makes your tracks sound the best
  • Taking muddiness out of vocals with shelving EQ
  • Eliminating honkiness from an electric keyboard and making it sound smoother in the context of the mix
  • Making the mix sound exciting without excessive tweaks.
  • Facing the fear of perfection and deciding when to call it a day
  • PLUS:  New multi-tracks with orchestras, trumpets, pianos and more backup vocals than you know what to do with
  • PLUS: A QUICKSTART video using only 5 plug-ins to get a great mix
