Description: In this masterclass, you’ll learn how to create a professional-sounding mix using only the plugins available in your DAW. Through strategic use of features like EQ, compression, reverb, delay, and distortion, Graham Cochrane will take tracks recorded in a home studio and polish them to commercial standards. Mixing isn’t about inserting a bunch of fancy and expensive plugins hoping to get a radio-ready sound. Rather, it’s all about strategic use of a few key effects that you already own. In this class you’ll learn how to craft a professional sounding mix with the stock plugins that came with your DAW. No upgrades necessary!
