You CAN Create Good Mixes In Your Home Studio "You CAN Create Good Mixes In Your Home Studio" And it's NOT about "secret ninja mixing tricks" or some "magic formula" My name is Joe Gilder. I'm a musician and recording engineer, and I run the popular home recording website HomeStudioCorner.com. As I was getting ready to mix my latest album, I thought, "It would be really cool to share these multi-tracks with other home studio owners. They could mix the songs themselves; I could show them how I mixed the songs, and everyone could share their mixes with each other." A few days later, MixWithUs.com was born, and a community of home studio owners, eager to make their mixes better, emerged. MixWithUs members improve their mixing skills by going through the following cycle: Practice If you're going to improve your mixes, you need to start mixing...a LOT. With every mix you finish, you'll get a little bit better. Mix whatever you can get your hands on. As a MixWithUs member, I'll provide you with lots of multi-track audio files, so you can dive in and get your hands dirty mixing song after song. Guidance Practicing by itself isn't enough for a lot of people. You may not know where to start. You might get stuck along the way. You want to know how someone else would mix that song. As a MixWithUs member, I will guide you through how I mixed each of the songs, so you can see exactly what I did to achieve the sound I was going for. (All through the members-only downloadable videos.) Feedback Whether you're mixing for practice, for yourself, or for a client, feedback is crucial. As a MixWithUs member, you will be able to post your mixes within the members area and get valuable feedback from both myself and the other members. This is by far the favorite feature of MixWithUs among current members. "Joining MWU provided me with valuable information and tools to become better at mixing. Not only getting a hands on practicing with the raw material but also learning new methods and getting tips and recommendations from Joe Gilder and fellow MWU members proved to be very valuable. Highly recommended!" Sigurdór G. What IS Mix With Us? Mix With Us is a 10-week program, where I give you behind-the-scenes access to my latest album, which was recorded and mixed by me entirely in my home studio. Each week you'll automatically receive the multi-track audio files to one of the songs, followed by the corresponding tutorial video. As a member, you'll receive access to the private, members-only area, where you'll find: Multi-track Audio Files - for each of the 10 songs on the album 10 Video Tutorials - I walk you through how I mixed each song. Comments Section - Your questions answered by me. Listening Room - A place to post your mixes and get valuable feedback. Bonuses - More on this below. Multi-Track Audio Files If you want better mixes, you need to practice, right? Right. How about I send you material once a week to practice on? Sound good? Good. But you don't need to stress over having to come up with an entire album of material to practice on. I've done the work FOR you. I recorded all the songs. Now YOU can get the practice you need to become a more confident mix engineer. Video Tutorials The most frustrating thing about mixing tutorial videos is learning how to apply what you learned to your own mixes. It's all guess-work. As a Mix With Us member, you will avoid this frustration ENTIRELY, because we will both be mixing the exact same song. In these weekly video tutorials (each of them is around one hour long), I'll walk you through how I mixed each song. You'll be "looking over my shoulder" as I share all the fun little details and challenges that went into mixing each song. These videos are all HD Quicktime movies. You'll download them to your computer and watch at your convenience. Wanna watch at 3am in your pajamas? No problem. Your Questions...Answered What's the point of watching a tutorial video if you can't ask questions? You won't be alone. As you work through the material, at any point you can ask a question by leaving a comment in the members area. You can work with confidence, knowing that if you have a frustrating problem, I'll be there to answer your questions. "The MixWithUs program has plenty of great information and is a lot of fun learning!!! And if you have any questions or problems Joe is always there to help!!! Thanks Joe." Terry S. The Listening Room "I worked on my mix. I watched this week's video. I hope I'm doing this right." As a Mix With Us member, you don't have to worry. Each week you can post your mix of that week's song to the Listening Room, where you'll get invaluable feedback and practical advice from me and your fellow members that you can actually use to improve your mixing technique. Bonuses In addition to everything listed above, you'll also have access to the following bonuses: "Mixing at Home" Training Video (49 minutes) FREE copy of Out of Indiana - The final, mastered album. Lifetime Access to any future material I add to MixWithUs This is for Home Studio Owners One of the most unique things about MixWithUs.com is that everything was done in my home studio. The tracks were recorded in my home studio. The mix was done in my home studio. No professional, high-end studio rooms or pieces of equipment were used. Why is this a good thing? Because chances are you are recording in a home studio as well, which means you have to deal with things like noise, poor acoustics, less-than-perfect equipment, etc. All of these are issues I deal with daily, and in these videos, I'll show you how you can deal with them. I'll show you how I used automation on a high-frequency shelf EQ to get rid of noise on the final fade-out of a song. I'll show you how to use EQ to get rid of all the muddiness of your tracks and bring out clarity and punch. You're not getting professional tracks recorded and mixed by a Grammy Award-winning engineer. You're getting tracks recorded and mixed in a home studio just like yours. That's the beauty of MixWithUs.com. You will learn how to get great-sounding mixes in YOUR home studio. "Joe, thanks so much for putting together the Mix With Us course. I can't think of any other way that I could have learned more in such a short period of time. I've always believed that mentoring is the most effective way to learn a skill, and without Mix With Us, I would have never had that opportunity." Angelo M. Ready to Join?
