This weeks blog is a video that is taken directly from the MIXING MADE EASY VOL 1 Series. This was the last section I filmed for the series and I thought these mixing tips would benefit everyone so I am sharing it with you.

If you want to see the entire series, which is 7 hours in length and has 9 video sections; then go to the "Made Easy Courses" page on this website and pick up your copy!

I get asked all the time on my You Tube channel about Universal Audio and why I like them so much and most importantly, how do I get started and what is involved with the hardware. So, I created a "system overview" video explaining just that. It's a bit long but worth it if you are considering upgrading your plugins to the U/A platform.

Here is something that a lot of new engineers don't take the time to achieve. a lot of mixes that people send me the bass guitar is usually lacking. So here is a few ideas to help you achieve a great bass sound!

I get asked a lot by newbie's about which should be the first analog style plugin they purchase. I always tell them the same thing......get yourself a tape emulation plugin. I think these plugins add the most "bang for buck" as far as adding warmth to your digital signal.

 So in this video we compare a few different tape plugins on the master bus. Listen for yourself and if you don't have a tape machine plugin, go get one!

I received a couple of e-mails from new students this week and they were asking for some overall advice on how they can become better at mixing. Well, my first response was to  all the MADE EASY SEREIS products! That will get you there for sure, right?

Even though that would help for sure, I also referred them to a video I made a while about about this exact topic so I wanted to re-share it in the blog as I know a lot of you are new to reading my blog and you may have never seen this video before. Check it out and let me know what your thoughts are.

Well, if the number one question I receive is.......

"How do I make my studio a full time business so I can quit my day job"

 Then the 2nd most popular question has to be.....

"How do I go about getting my first paying client"?

Staying with the career tips for another couple of blog posts, this weeks tip is so important. Setting goals and reviewing those goals and even changing your goals from time to time as your career path changes is critical as well. Anyway, here is a video all about setting goals!

This week and for the next few up-coming, I want to share these videos with you as I know that so many of you own a home studio and maybe you are recording other people as a hobby or even part time and making a few bucks! The number 1 question I get from people is

 "How do I make my studio a full time business?". 

So I created a short video series to show you just how I did that and here is the 3rd video of that series. Hope you find this tip helpful!

Several months ago I published several video blogs to help the home studio owner and I believe they are worth reviewing. So not much to read this week, just simply watch!
