Description
Compression Made Easy is the complete beginner's playbook to demystifying compression and learning how to use compression effectively. This course is perfect for any student who struggles with not only understanding compression but also how to "hear" compression.
You will learn all the basic controls of a compressor, what they do and how to use them. You will also learn the differences between different types of compressors and when to use one over another. I spend a lot of time teaching you how to listen for compression and what to listen for. This is where most courses on the market fall short. Hearing compression is one of the most important things to learn and I got you covered!
The best thing about this course is that I explain things in a very non-technical way so even if you know absolutely nothing about compression you will be able to follow along and easily understand the course.
Who this course is for:
- Beginners to using compression or students that struggle with understand how to use it effectively in a mix
Instructor
I have been a professional audio mixing engineer for over 15 years. During that time I have been mixing music and mastering music for hundreds of artists all over the world, helping them bring their art to the world. My training has taken me all over the country, working in many analog / digital hybrid studios. I have also studied under well know mixing engineer Michael White who has worked with some of the most famous artist in the world including The Rolling Stones, Whitney Houston, Kiss and the Talking Heads, just to name a few.
In 2012 I decided that I wanted to give back and try to help up and coming audio engineers. I started a YouTube channel where I created short mixing and mastering tip videos and they became extremely popular in the home recording on-line community. I received literally dozens of e-mails and comments each month and people kept asking me to create an in-depth product line that went beyond what I was able to produce for YouTube and at the same time people were asking me about giving them private instruction.
In 2013 I launched Home Recording Made easy.com which is a education site for both home recording musicians and aspiring audio engineer. My goal was to educate the beginner / intermediate student of the basics of recording, mixing and mastering so they could produce professional sounding productions in their home studios. One of the cornerstones of Home Recording Made Easy.com is the
MADE EASY SEREIS training products. These long form video training products were designed to give students a solid foundation of knowledge that will help them improve their music projects. Since it’s inception, the MADE EASY SERIES has grown to 11 different product titles and has sold thousands of copies to students all over the world and I continue to receive dozens of e-mails from students telling me how much these training products has helped them.
