Audio Mastering 201

Why mastering? Song mixes that are intended for one album often don't match one another in level, frequency balance, etc., or don't have the desired "power" and "size" that listeners expect when buying a commercial track. Mastering fixes those problems. Taking a mix and making it sound like a commercial recording takes a keen understanding of sound, song, commercial expectations, and the entire technical mastering process. Audio Mastering 201 guides you through these techniques so that by the end of the course, you can apply them to any genre of music and give it a professional-level sound.

Live Sound Engineering 102: Monitor Mixing

This class is ideal for young sound engineers with a small amount of experience who want to learn the skills needed for a position as a Monitor Mix Engineer(MME) with a larger production company or want to raise their skill level where they work already.
