Some improvements could really add some value to this level of content. But I like the clear explanations and the clear thought process. Keep going Mikael!

Great teacher. Very objective and didactic. I recommend it to everyone. The practical use of this effect has greatly improved my music. If your goal is to help and motivate people, congratulations. You are succeeding. Greetings from Brazil.

Wow, quite impressive how my kick and bass sound now (when compared to yesterday)! Very useful in-depth explanations that really make a difference!

By Chris on 8/2/2017

He talks in a slow pace and I guess that's nice for beginners. I have several side chain pluggins and most DAW's provide some. But I expected him to give some tips in one the starting videos which plugins provide side chaining and what he would recommend.. Now people have google it themselfs.. That being said I recommend Fabfilter Pro-C (you click on the "expert" button to side chain. Have fun!

By Francis Fabian on 4/8/2017

Mike is a great teacher, full of enthusiasm and although I sort of understood sidechaining he explained it and showed how to do it very easily. The bonus tip was also helpful as I didn't know about that trick at all. I joined his Music Makers group on Facebook too. Highly recommended.

By David Mitchell on 1/25/2017

Mike, Thank you sooo much for your gift... It isn't often that people give knowledge for free. I know your tips on side chain compression will help my music, and I will use it on my next track that I post to youtube@children of legacy music group. My music will change the world because it's not the beats that are bad for young ears, it's the content sang or spoke over the beats. Thanks again and God bless, from David Mitchell in Lancaster California.

By Jay Elvove on 1/24/2017

Very good. Since I'm new to the DAW world, I've bookmarked the course as a resource I can return to whenever I have the need for sidechain compression.

By Sven Brode on 1/3/2017

Mikael provides a good overview on sidechain compression and this can be easily applied with any DAW - he uses Logic Pro X here. On occasion I find his style a little over-engaging but then again it is better than being demotivated. Overall I would recommend this course to newcomers to sidechain compression.

By Dean Davis on 1/2/2017

I really appreciate the description of what side chain compression is and I REALLY appreciate the step by step guide on how to set it up in a project! Thanks, Dean

By Steve on 11/15/2016

Mike's delivery style is laid-back easy to understand. Coincidently I have the same DAW and therefore I can see exactly what he's recommending.
