It can seem daunting to get your music as wide as your hero’s. Honestly, we’ve been there ourselves. You might have heard it’s as simple as cranking one expensive plug-in on your master track, only to find out that it left your mix hollow and wimpy. Exciting mix width can seem unachievable — available only to those with out-of-this-world budgets.

But, luckily it’s not! The secret to creating wide mixes comes down to assembling many small (but POWERFUL) skills. You also need to know which tactics lead to unfavorable results (even if it’s not super obvious at first). We made this course to clear things up, once and for all…
