WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT MIXING MUSIC LIVE...
Jess LeBlancÂ
"Thank you for putting this course together! I thought this was an excellent and very thorough explanation of all the technical aspects of live sound. Very clear and some great pictures and good examples of different equipment situations to really give a good understanding of everything."
Â
Rachel Suffian
âMy biggest take away from Mixing Music Live was the inputs and outputs on the soundboard. I wasn't sure what they all did before but now I have a better understanding of that and the use of inserts and EQs.
I know have a better understanding of the general signal flow from setting up the stage to the order of operations on the soundboard. Also, I did not have much knowledge on dealing with feedback, so knowing tips on how to ring out the PA were very helpful.
I feel a lot better than I did before. The resources you add to certain lessons is super helpful and I am happy to now have those to revert back to when I need them."Â
Simon Boniface
"I must say that this has been the best course that I have done. The order in which the subjects have been presented and the demonstrations have been brilliant. Everything has been very well explained and helped to re-enforce the knowledge for me. Thank you for putting the effort into to sharing your professional experience for non professionals such as myself."
Syrilyn Tong
"I really liked your course. It was very thorough, and even though I don't own or (thus far) use a large digital mixer, I feel that it's not so intimidating any more. I have taken another live sound mixing course, which was much shorter and not as thorough.  I really needed help understanding dynamics, and your drum files helped me play around with the controls. I felt like I couldn't do that in a live setting and didn't have a drummer of which to sit around beating drums for me!"Â
Ella Metcalfe
"Mixing Music Live helped me understand what process to work through when preparing for a live show. I found the introduction to signal flow and the mixing desk the most valuable to help make it less overwhelming. Also learning some great tips about stage set up, mics etc, and how this can impact the mix too."
