Course Overview

Mixing and mastering a complete music project from scratch may seem like a daunting task, but thankfully this course by trainer and producer Joshua Carney is here to help! From setting levels and applying effects to finalizing your project and exporting it, this course will teach you everything you need to mix and master with confidence.
Joshua starts by explaining how to import the audio and organize the project. He shows you how to do a rough mix using the very flexible mixer and the various metering tools included in Studio One.
After explaining the differences between grouping, busses and VCA channels, Joshua jumps right into using the FX plugins. This is where you learn to use the Pro EQ2, the Compressor, the Fat Channel XT, delay, reverb, etc. There's no better way to learn to mix than seeing and hearing these plugins in action... That's why Joshua demonstrates them on acoustic drums, guitar, bass, synth and vocals. After applying automation and finalizing the mix, Joshua reveals how you can master your music in the Project Page, a feature very unique to Studio One.
It's time to mix and master... Join Joshua Carney in this in-depth course and take your mixing and mastering chops to the next level!
