I'm so glad you're here, welcome!

 

Do any of these sound familiar?

Will I ever properly understand compressors?
Why do my mixes always sound muddy?
Why can’t I seem to finish a mix?
I’m not sure I’m good enough to mix music for release?
How do I create more space in my mixes?
How do I translate the reference mix to my mix?
I want my mix to have a "sheen" without being harsh.
I just can’t get the low end right.
I know the theory but I can't make it work on my mixes.

 

Well, you’ve come to the right place!

Information overload can leave you feeling confused and frustrated with mixing when it should be fun and exciting and where we can create new music that make people dance, laugh, cry and get goosebumps!

 

Frustration creeps in after trying to learn to mix by watching random YouTube videos that seem to have contradicting information or take an age to get the point.

About Sara Carter

I am a BBC trained, mixing engineer based in Basingstoke in the UK. I started recording and mixing music in the mid-’90s from a small home studio until eventually landing my dream job working from the famous BBC's Maida Vale Studios and Broadcasting House in London.

I’ve worked with a wide variety of recording artists from Beyoncé and The Black Keys to The Cure and Rod Stewart and have been credited on records by Corrine Bailey Rae and KT Tunstall amongst many others.

I now run an online mixing business Music Mix Pro in the UK working with unsigned bands from all over the world.

I also write for the Production Expert blog and have appeared on many of the Production Expert podcasts. I've also been interviewed on the Working Class Audio podcast and the Recording Studio Rockstars podcast.
