Course Description

This course is a collection of those cool little tricks that producers and engineers use in the studio to sweeten the sound, and add excitement to a song.  Some of these tricks are commonly used on a daily basis, and some are secret weapons only used when in specific situations.  

Each video in the course explains one simple trick.  It is common practice to use a combination of tricks when producing a song.  So once you have the knowledge, it becomes a process of trial and error to learn when each trick is appropriate.

Its A protools training he is mainly using protools factory plugins. I had hoped he would use more waves plugins. I use logic x but I do have waves plugins.

Very descriptive, but also "to the point". Very informative, thank you Million Dollar Mateu!

By William Anderson on 1/6/2018

This course shows how to use some standard mixing tricks to create some popular effects. It will also re-enforce some basic understanding of important concepts used in mixing. Once you go through this class you will recognize some of these effects on popular songs you hear on the radio all the time, and you'll know how they created them.

By Joe Hernandez on 10/14/2017

Matt great course all the older tricks I learned on my own I wish i had this course years ago when I started on Pro Tools would have saved me mad hours, Great refresher, I recommend for anybody.
