Mastering Multi-Band Compression: 17 step by step multiband compression techniques for getting flawless mixes, Paperback

In Mastering Multi-Band Compression I'm going to be giving you the step by step formula for using multiband compression. By using this formula you'll get rid of the confusion and discover the benefits of multiband compression.

This isn't another wishy-washy difficult to grasp book on mixing theory. I'm not in the camp of people who will tell you "It all depends." Well actually it does depend-- it depends on the situation. And there are only 2 situations a multiband compressor deals with: Transient Control and Volume Leveling on a per-frequency band basis.

By identifying whether you need Transient Control or Volume Leveling you can then literally copy/paste any of my 17 techniques and get the sound you're after.

If you know anything about my mixing philosophy then you know that I'm always aiming for 70% of my instruments to blend together and 30% of my instruments to contrast against that blended backdrop.

This allows me to achieve more vibrant levels of contrast and with that 70/30 split a mix becomes increasingly more spacious and clear. This is how we create depth. We like depth. Depth is in fact the exacted result of the formulaic processes I teach.

In the end mixing is art and I want the act of doing art to feel simple for you. I already went through my phase of hating presets and it only slowed down my progress. Once I realized that presets are just tutorials, my skills improved geometrically.

I'm telling you this because at every level of mixing my primary goal is to simplify the process with set and forget presets. Every skilled producer/engineer I've met does this to some degree. Whether we realize it or not habitual mix decisions are in fact presets.

As my students have already discovered in "The 3-Space Reverb Framework" and "The Bus Compression Masterclass," some of the most difficult parts of mixing are actually very formulaic. This means they can be replicated and repeated for consistent results across many mediums.

Now in this book I'm giving you everything you need to know about multiband compression before even using it. I've then gone step by step through each of the 17 ways we use multiband compression. This means I explain exactly how to do something as well as why it works.

These 17 step by step techniques will blow you away with their simplicity and effectiveness. You'll experience the types of actual results you've been needing to make those mental connections and reach the final tier of mixing.

So buy your copy of Mastering Multi-Band Compression and you'll never be overwhelmed by Multiband Compression again.
