Is Your Music Mix-Ready? Find Out.

Chances are, if you’re making music in your home studio, you want to share it with people.

You might not care about becoming a Grammy-chasing artist (but all the power to you if you do), but you at least want people to hear your music.

And if you’re a musician, you’ve spent most of your life honing your instrument chops instead of your audio skills.

That means you make great music, but it doesn’t sound professional enough.

Like many of my students, you struggle to get your mixes to sound clear, balanced, and professional.

You want to be confident that your mixes meet “industry standards” because there’s nothing like hearing your song on the radio next to another popular release.

But nobody will play your track on the radio or add your song to their streaming playlists if the mixes aren’t good.

So, instead of finishing polished, professional, and release-ready records you can share with your friends, family, and fans, you’re stuck in the studio endlessly tweaking your mixes.

And boy, what a bottomless pit of plug-ins that can be…

But what if I told you that the best way to get better mixes starts long before you ever load a plug-in onto a track?

It doesn’t matter if you have the best gear, the largest plug-in subscription, or the greatest ears in the world…

If you skip these “pre-mixing” steps…your mixes will still suck.

Luckily for you, in the next few days, I’ll be sharing all these steps with you in my brand-new, free email course all about making your tracks “Mix-Ready.”

Introducing: The Mix-Ready Roadmap

The Mix-Ready Roadmap is for musicians, producers, and audio engineers looking to improve their mixes before they even start mixing!

Understanding EQ, compression, reverb, delay, and saturation is hugely important – as you already know if you’re one of the thousands of musicians who have read my book Step By Step Mixing.

But it’s not enough if your song isn’t Mix-Ready.

• Get your songs mix-ready, and you won’t need fancy plug-ins
• Get your songs mix-ready, and you won’t need advanced mixing tricks or complicated side-chain routing techniques
• Get your songs mix-ready, and you’ll finish your mixes faster

Simply put, you’ll easily release more music if you get your songs mix-ready.

This perspective has been a game-changer for many of my students struggling to finish their mixes.

Instead of jumping from one plug-in to another or trying out the next-best trick, the Mix-Ready Roadmap helps them see how to lay the foundation of a good song before they start mixing.

If you’re ready for the Mix-Ready Roadmap, the first lesson in the series will hit the blog tomorrow.

Keep an eye out; you won’t want to miss it!
