Why Your Mixes Don’t Sound Pro (and what to do about it)

Have you ever felt frustrated with your productions and wondered why your mixes don’t sound pro?

The truth is that mixing is overrated.

Don’t get me wrong, mixing is a crucial step within any pro-level production.

The issue is that people (especially home studio owners that produce their own music) focus way too much on the final mix when they should be focusing on other things first.

Compression..

EQ..

Plugin bundles..

Outboard gear..

None of that matters in the slightest if you don’t have these fundamental production habits in place from the get-go.

In reality, your mix actually starts HERE. In this video, I share where all pro-level mixes actually start.

Learn the real reason why your mixes don’t sound pro and what you can do about it.
