Key Concepts:

  • Frequency Effects (filters, equalizers, etc.)
  • Temporal Effects (reverbs, delays, etc.)
  • Dynamic Effects (compression, etc.)
  • Basic Subtractive Synthesis (and its use in effect processing)
  • Metering
  • Mastering Concepts
  • Mixing Methodology
  • Mixing Tools & Concepts
  • Automation
