The Art of Mixing & Mastering

The Art of Mixing & Mastering

Mixing & Mastering Music Production Course | Berlin

We believe the best way to learn is in small, concentrated groups. So, at Garnish, the classes for our Mixing and Mastering Course are no bigger than 4 people. If you’re wanting to add punch, depth and clarity to your mixes, this is the way to do it! The lessons are an intoxicating mix of classic and innovative modern techniques, along with tips and tricks to keep your interest piqued! If you’re ready to start experimenting with technique and concepts to transform your music projects, this is the course for you. You’ll also realize you’re saving a fortune on engineers and studio time by being able to bring these skills out in yourself. Better still, this course will cater for all DAW users and all music genres.

This course is sponsored by Fabfilter, which runs on all popular DAWs. It’s not essential for participants to own them for this course if they use Pro Tools, Logic or Ableton, but we’d still recommend them highly. If you find that you do want to buy them, as a GMP learner, you’ll qualify for a 50% discount, wherever you are in the world.

There’re 36 hours of focussed learning in your small class, where you’ll be able to ask questions, share tips and findings with like-minded fellow students and tutors to get the answers that you need. Sharing your problems and inspirations in this way is an invaluable learning tool, and we feel this very interactive aspect of the course runs rings around online courses and tutorials.

Our Testimonials

The instructor was amazing. To be able to learn mixing and mastering in 36 hours is unbelievable!

COG

I have taken about 3 mixing courses online and learned something from each. This by far was the most helpful because it tied everything together and having a hands-on approach is the best. The instructor was super enthusiastic and patient as well. For the price and being a one week full session, nothing else compares.

Biren M Patel

The teacher is awesome, his enthusiasm and knowledge makes the class a blast while taking in tons of useful tips/techniques.

Darryl Swann. Enough said. He is a passionate, humble, experienced, and incredible human. He would help any of his students in anyway he could and he loves teaching. We now work together outside of Garnish and I couldn't be happier to have connected with him through Garnish.

Patrick McCutcheon

I came into the class with a good understanding of my DAW (Logic Pro X course here at Garnish) but minimal knowledge of mixing/mastering. I thought the class was a great supplement to the knowledge I gained from the Logic Pro X course. I never felt lost, and now know how to achieve a clean mix and master.

Kevin Yee

I won't change anything. I learned and enjoyed a lot! Good location and neighborhood, nice people and easy parking.

Mono Villa

I've been producing music for 15-20 years and even have a recording arts degree. The instructors were absolutely amazing and helped me grasp mixing and mastering in a very relatable down to earth way. I feel like my production has finally taken the step up it needed. Loved the class and would love to take more courses at Garnish. Great learning

Jeremy Wells

Instructors are well-experienced and can speak from tremendous amounts of real-world experience. They are also very passionate - not just about music and working in the industry, but they are passionate about teaching and getting the students the best learning experience possible. This makes a big difference in how successful the course is for the students… We were also able to get a lot of detailed and hands-on work - which was great!
