Hi, I just had an email, supposedly from Mastering.com saying... Hey there, Rob here from Mastering.com. I'd love to get your thoughts on your recent purchase: NYC Drums Would you be open to leaving a quick review? If so, here's your unique link: https://courses.mastering.com/review?product=31 Thanks for your time, it's much appreciated. Cheers, Rob CEO - Mastering.com You were sent this email because you recently purchased a product from Mastering.com. I've NOT purchased NYC Drums or anything else, so why would I get this? Any thoughts?

Imagine someone is starting learning mixing or mastering today. What's the one piece of advice you'd give them to help them succeed faster?

Not long ago, I posted on our YouTube channel asking what people wanted to see from Mastering.com The most liked comment? "Orchestral mixing mastering" And it's finally happening. Next week, we're hosting a special edition of our famous "Fix-The-Mix" Challenge, focusing on music with orchestration. We're partnering with Orchestral Tools to bring you three days of live mixing, where Kevin "Black Pearl" McCloskey will be mixing a track with orchestral components from start to finish. We'll also breakdown the composition itself at the start of day one (composed by our very own Luke Despain). RSVP for free here (starts Sep 15th): https://courses.mastering.com/events/e/fix-the-mix-sep-2026?utm_source=Skool See you there, Rob

Our next Fix-The-Mix starts in less than 24hrs time! Join us live for 3-days of mixing a track from start to finish with a multi-platinum engineer. We'll show you how to fix (and prevent) the biggest problems in your mix. It's free to register but you're running out of time, it's now or never. RSVP here for free: https://courses.mastering.com/events/e/fix-the-mix-sep-2026?utm_source=Skool This event is hosted in partnership with Orchestral Tools, and we'll be working on a song with orchestral elements. See you there! Drop a gif below if you’re planning to attend live 🤘

Hi great people! Lately, I've been focusing on weekly goals and trying to define my own daily dedication, kind of non-negotiable task for each day outside of production sessions. What does your daily dedication look like? Do you have specific things you practice or study on particular days? Here's my DRAFT: Monday - music analysis. Listening to note arrangement, sounds, balance, production choices. Tuesday - sound selection. Hunting for sounds, finding kicks working great with basses, synths, etc. Wednesday - sound design. Creating and/or shaping sounds. Thursday - effects selection. Exploring reverbs, delays, modulation, distortion, etc. Friday - plugin review. Study or review plugins. Saturday - undecided Sunday - undecided I’m still figuring out Saturday and Sunday.
