Do you hear songs on the radio and wonder why yours don’t sound the same?

It’s not because they have a super special technology. It’s because they’ve nailed the mix. 

If you’re like most hip-hop producers you love creating the music, but the engineering side leaves you feeling confused and maybe a bit lost. 

In this course I teach you how to make radio ready songs from your bedroom or home studio. 

We do all the mixing with stock plug-ins, so you can use any DAW and there’s no fancy gear or software necessary. 

Imagine being able to mix your tracks without the confusion of “what next?”

A good mix comes down to a few key concepts that I share with you in this course. 

You’ll learn:

-How to properly organize your mix to save yourself time

-Mistakes most people make mixing their 808s (and how to avoid them)

-How to easily master your track to make it BUMP in car speakers or headphones

-A way to utilize your effects to get your tracks to pop

-Some of the best stock plug-ins for hip-hop

-Shortcuts to your workflow to speed up your process

 

By the end of this class you’ll be on your way to mixing your music and achieving the sonic vision you hear in your head.

Just don’t forget about me when you’re famous, deal?
