About this course
Advanced mixing and mastering techniques with Pro Tools. EQ, compression, reverb, delays, and tempo maps as applied to all styles of music, including jazz, pop, rock, hip-hop, orchestral, and electronica. Compare and contrast mixing techniques employed by engineers and producers from diverse racial, ethnic, and gender backgrounds. Apply critical listening to mixes and enhance mixes with automation, audio plug-ins, and external hardware equipment. Use multi-band compression and advancing audio processing in mastering. Study mixes of professional audio engineers and recording artists. Prepare to work in commercial production facilities and apply these techniques in a home studio. Learn professional collaboration workflows, file management, and delivery to a wide range of formats, including CD, DVD, MP3, and internet streaming. Although this course uses Pro Tools, the concepts and techniques can be applied to any digital audio workstation (Logic, Cubase, etc.) or any traditional analog mixing console.
