Welcome! Mixerman here. I’m a gold and platinum award winning mixer and producer, and I write books about recording, mixing, and producing to help Creatives like you succeed. Not because I can give you some magical list of secrets. Not because I can sell you on plugins that you probably don’t need. Rather, because I can offer you the critical tools to help you dramatically improve your records.

Mixing is a game of confidence. But how can you mix with confidence, when you’re unsure of your mixing skills? The answer is, you can’t. Which is why I address how you think about mixing in  Zen & the Art of Mixing (last updated in 2021). So you can learn to work quickly towards a mix that does everything it should for the song. This will result in more confidence, which manifests as success and enjoyment.

There’s a reason why this is my most popular work.

Currently Unavailable as I work on a Major Revision.

In the summer of 2002, I began to chronicle my days on a Major Label recording session with a bidding-war band (unworthy of an opening salvo), an infamous producer, and a limitless budget. Every night, after a long session with this whacky band, I posted up the day’s events. As Metro reporter Gina Arnold put it, “Mixerman is supposed to be writing about recording techniques, but somehow, through that prism, he has hit upon a gripping story.” That’s right, the story went so viral, that it was even reviewed by random newspaper editors around the country. Which begs the obvious question: What would happen once my diary was discovered by the band, label, and producer?
