What you’ll learn
Four skills. One repeatable process.
Each lesson builds on the one before it, moving from how you hear a mix to how you can plan, visualize, and adjust one in real time.
The six-column method
Score a reference track with a repeatable framework and begin every mix with a plan.
Soundstage mapping
Turn width and depth into something you can draw, discuss, and reproduce.
Live calibration drills
Practice identifying level and pan relationships while the mix is moving.
