The Only 5 Plug-ins You'll Need for Better Mixes This Year

Published: Tue, 01/03/17

It's the first week of the new year.

I don't know about you, but I tend to set a lot of goals for myself.

I don't call them "resolutions" because I've always felt that new year's resolutions never go anywhere. They seem destined to fail because you feel peer pressured into changing something about yourself just because it's January.

However, January is also as good a month as any to set yourself some goals.

The trick about goals is that they need to be actionable.

A piss-poor excuse for a new year's resolution is something like "Lose more weight."

That's so non-specific and airhead-y that it makes me annoyed!

I mean, how much weight do you need to lose to feel good about yourself?

Are you going to eat less? Exercise more? Both?

What are the actionable steps you need to take in order to achieve this goal?

In order to do that you need to quantify what the 20% of your actions will result in 80% of your results.

And when it comes to mixing, I've learned that there are only 5 plug-ins that will give you the most improvement in your mixes.

EQ
Compression
Reverb
Delay
Saturation

Mixing With 5 Plug-ins Open To New Members

These are the five plug-ins I teach you how to use inside Mixing With 5 Plug-ins, the Audio Issues flagship course. It's $50 off if you order before Friday, which is also when it closes to new members.

The best part is that you already have these plug-ins so you can dive right in.

You see, when I ask new subscribers what they struggle with they always mention EQ, compression, reverb, delay and (most recently) saturation as the thing they struggle with the most.

Those are the most important plug-ins to master to get awesome sounding mixes so I thought: what better way to teach mixing than using the most commonly used plug-ins available to anyone.

This course will teach you, among other things,:

To use EQ to create track separation and clarity
To use compression to create shape in your instruments, whether you need to balance the dynamics or level out the transients.
To use reverb and delay to create full, rich and thick vocals
To use saturation to sweeten up a mix
To know what to look out for when you're making your mix translate to other speaker systems.

If you have a goal of becoming a better mixing engineer in 2017 I highly recommend you check out the course.
