❌ Gear Collectors Only – If you’re just looking for an excuse to buy more plugins or hardware, this isn’t for you. We’re focusing on doing more with less.
❌ Know-It-Alls – If you already think you’ve mastered mixing and aren’t open to learning new workflows or simplifying your process, this won’t be worth your time.
❌ Quick-Fix Seekers – If you’re hoping for some magic button or “secret plugin chain” to make your mixes sound professional instantly, this challenge isn’t for you.
❌ Uncommitted Hobbyists – If you’re not willing to put in even a little effort for a couple of hours on a Saturday, you won’t see the growth this Masterclass is built to give you.
This Masterclass is not DAW Specific. This is a "Mixing Masterclass."
This masterclass will translate to any DAW
- That being said, we will be using Pro Tools for this demonstration as Pro Tools is the most requested DAW for these Masterclasses.
If you join us for the VIP pass. We can discuss alternative DAWs during our Q&A session.
The General Admission pass is $47. Also, you will be able to access all the materials we will be working on throughout the Masterclass.
Everyone will get access to our Skool Community for free (Unless you are already a member)
As a $97 VIP Ticket Holder, you will get all of the above as well as a one-hour Coaching / Q&A Call after the general Masterclass.
And you have exclusive access to the LIVE recording to keep.
Because great mixes don’t come from stacking 100 plugins — they come from understanding the fundamentals of balance, EQ, compression, and space.
Minimal mixing forces you to develop your ear, your instincts, and your workflow without hiding behind endless gear or presets.
Once you can create a professional-sounding mix with just a handful of tools, you’ll be able to mix faster, more confidently, and with better results—no matter what plugins or gear you have access to.
Absolutely!
This masterclass is designed for beginners.
You don’t need years of experience or a room full of gear—just a DAW, a few stock plugins, and the desire to learn.
We’ll break things down step by step so you can start building confidence in your mixing skills right away.
By the end of the masterclass, you’ll not only understand how to get a solid mix with minimal tools, but you’ll also know how to keep growing from there.
With a General Admission ticket, you’ll get full access to the LIVE training and mixing walkthroughs, but there won’t be much time for live Q&A.
If you’d like more personalized support, our VIP ticket includes an additional hour dedicated to answering your questions, providing direct feedback, and helping you apply the techniques to your own mixes.
I suggest going the VIP Ticket route, for sure.
