Music producers are integral to any successful song.
Whether they see the song all the way through to its completion or just compose the music, every great song has always had a great producer behind it and for a while, a producer's only job was just to produce!
In today's digital-dominated world, for example, it is very common for producers to license their beats on the internet, release their own beat tapes on streaming platforms or even work with artists one-on-one.
In other words, we do a lot more than before and the one thing that all of these new endeavors have in common aside from production is that they also require great mixing.
If you are licensing your beats online then you want then to be mixed well so that the artist listening can get a good idea of what the final song could potentially sound like and hopefully purchase your beat.
If you are self-releasing beat tapes then those beats are the final product and a great mix is essential.
Even if you're not uploading your beats to the internet and you are only sending them out to specific artists, it is still crucial that they are mixed properly so that they give off a great first impression and hopefully land you that placement.
All of this is to say that we now not only have to be great producers but also great mixers!
I don't know about you but I often come across posts and interviews from other producers that credit "special plugins" or a secret master effect chain for their great sounding beat mixes.
I sincerely believe this all comes from a good place there are few problems with this mixing approach.
One, it shifts the entire responsibility of a great mix from the mixer to a piece of software – this can't possibly be the solution because if it were everyone would be just a plugin away from a Grammy.
Two, it assumes that every mix is the same when in reality every mix has different elements that will dictate how it needs to be approached. This ultimately means that while a plugin might work in one mix, it might not work in another.
Plugins absolutely help (I always show you guys the hottest ones out and the ones I personally use on my YouTube Channel) but what is more important in my opinion, is understanding the foundations of what makes a great mix.
I don't want you to rely just on special plugins to achieve a great mix.
I want you to have a solid grasp on the foundations of mixing so that no matter what tools you have in front of you or what situation you find yourself in, you can always achieve great results with your own specific style!
A step-by-step guide to helping you get the most out of your beat mixes.
Give your beats the attention they deserve whether you're selling them online, releasing them on beat tapes or simply emailing them out to artists.
Don't just rely on plugins but instead truly understand what they do. That way you can always be equipped to approach a mix no matter the conditions.
Once you remove the guesswork and frustration from mixing the sky is the limit!
Better Beat Mixes is a step-by-step program that walks you through my specific beat mixing method and shows you exactly what you need to do to improve your beat mixes.
"I have purchased other mixing courses in the past and I have to say this is the best one so far."
Here's a sneak peek of what you'll learn inside the course:
Setting Up the Static Mix (Leveling) – How to level your sounds and make sure you have enough headroom in your mix.
Creating Clarity with EQ & Compression – A breakdown of EQ & compression.
Adding Space with Reverb & Delay – How to distinguish between different reverbs and delays and know when to use them.
Making Drums Knock – How to get punchy drums without the need for excessive volume.
Enhancing Your Beat Mix – Tips and tricks to make your beat mix stand out.
"This course was just what I needed! I would never mix or even try to because it seemed to be overwhelming, Better Beat Mixes changed all that. .... I highly recommend this course to anyone that has trouble mixing or is intimidated by it."
Every video lesson comes with actionable steps to not only summarize the material but also keep you on track.
Additionally, the course also comes with a PDF guide that overviews the entire course and serves as a checklist that you can use every time you sit down to mix your beats.
No. That takes lots of practice and time. The purpose of this course is to teach you the fundamentals along with some great techniques so that you can feel more comfortable approaching a mix and get results that work for you.
Yes but that won't be the main focus of this course. The goal is to teach you about techniques and applications so that you can take this back to your music and get amazing results with the tools you already have.
Absolutely not. I myself use Studio One but these concepts can be applied using whatever DAW you prefer. Obviously, specific functions and settings will differ from DAW to DAW but the concepts stay the same and can be applied everywhere.
Of course! Aside from fundamentals we also talk about certain techniques and best practices to help you get the most out of your beat mixes regardless of your experience level. It is true, however, that beginners will get the most out of this course but even for more advanced users, this can serve as a reinforcement resource.
No. A lot of my production is based around urban music so that is what the course focuses on. The information and methods I teach in this course are going to be the most effective for Hip Hop, Trap, RnB, Pop, and Reggaetón.
I get it, we all want that magic button that just automatically makes our beats sound amazing but the reality is that that's far from the truth.
Every mix is different and requires individual attention.
Better Beat Mixes is based on a solid understanding of the fundamentals and paired with effective techniques that can help you achieve results in ways that work best for you.
If you put in the work I know you will get the results that you want.

I remember how frustrating the early stages of my journey was (circa 2005) because in front me I had something that I was extremely passionate about (beat making) but couldn't figure out how to apply these mixing concepts and get the most out of my beat mixes.
To make matters worse no matter how many people I asked no one could give me straight forward answers (unfortunately YouTube tutorials weren't a thing yet). Instead, I was left rummaging through endless forums with little to no success.
Don't be like me. Your time as a producer is better suited for creating amazing music not getting stuck on how to mix your beats.
Join Better Beat Mixes and let me show you how you can take your beat mixes to the next level.
