Lessons: 

1. Introduction

Rob introduces himself and his extensive experience in the industry. This tutorial looks at the big picture of mixing, how to listen properly and tune your ears before moving onto Rob’s mixdown of a professional track. Rob uses a lot of Ableton Live’s stock plugins and instruments so that you can focus on learning the techniques and not plugins.

2. Tuning Your Ears Before You Start a Mixing Session :

Similar to an athlete stretching before a run, it’s important to get your ears warmed up and listen to the right things before a mixing session. Rob shows how to do this with some basic elements from the 909 core kit in Ableton Live.

Rob builds on the skills learnt in lesson 2, expanding on how to find and solve problems whilst mixing down, including how to use reverb to uncover issues and how to avoid phasing.

4. Getting your Kick and Bass Sounding Good : 

The most important element of nearly all dance music, Rob shows you how to get the most out of your kick and bass and get them working together to make your track pump.

5. Mixing a Track :

Rob goes through one of his client’s tracks, another chapter full of mixing and mixdown hacks . Showing you how to organise your project, how to use reference tracks, an awesome way to get your music louder than everyone else’s on streaming platforms and more.

6. Channel and Buss Processing :

Rob breaks down the processing he uses on channels and busses for key track elements such as kick and bass, the sends and returns he uses and even the chain on his master channel.

7. Mixing Vocals :

How to process vocals. Using a cool mixing and mixdown hack of slowing down the timing of a vocal as a starting point, Rob shows how to find problems in your vocals and how to fix them.

8. Theory Recap

Rob recaps the theory behind his mixing and mixdown hacks, including how he gets his records sounding that extra 10% better than the rest, and how to get your ear ready for a mixing session.

9. Using Gain Staging on Your Kick and Bass :

Rob shows you some of his top tips for getting big results in your tunes. The first he looks at is using gain staging to increase your headroom and perceived loudness.

10. Using EQ :

How to use EQ on your master buss to find problems in your mix and fix them with dynamic Eqing, to give your mix a better sound overall.

11. Making Drumcode Style Techno :

How to make Techno with a Drumcode vibe, including how to process your kick to give it an oldschool sound, getting rumble and how to add techno flavour to percussion.

• Should the mid signal be higher than the side?
• Am I using the EQ wrong if I remove resonances and the mix still falls flat?
• What is the difference between setting up a mid / side chain to EQ separately as opposed to using mid / side mode on ProQ 3?
•  Why do my hats sound good before I run them into my mastering chain but bad after?
• How Do I get Big, Wide and Present trance leads that sit nicely in the mix?

13. Live Q&A Part 2 :

• How Do You Make Rolling Basslines Like Nick Curly and other Deep House and Tech Artists?
