Description
This course will teach you how to mix using waves plugins. It will also teach you techniques to use while mixing. An overview for all the waves plugins used in this course will be given as well. This course features plugins used in the Musicians Bundle 2, H-series, and more. In this course I take a song from an artist named Rik Billz and go through each track explaining how I used Waves plugins to process all the tracks in the sessions. This is not a course where you will follow me and do what I do. In my opinion you do learn by simply copying someones moves. You need to learn why they made those moves. This course packs close to 2 hours of content and material.
This course will show I approached mixing the drums, vocals, instruments, effects, and mix bus. Below is a list of all of the plugins used.
