Thousands of people try to become sound engineers every year.

Many of them don’t make it.

The first thing they can’t get a hang of is EQ.

EQ can seem complex, there are lots of charts to study and frequencies to learn and you may feel like you need to have "The Ear" for it. But EQ is like any other skill, it can be learned by getting started now, consistently following a plan to develop, and putting in the time

Master Live EQ is a live sound course to teach you how to think about EQ. 
It builds you up step by step to be able to make quick, accurate EQ decisions that you can be sure of.

After you learn to use EQ you’ll love every show you mix and be able to build a career as a live sound professional.

I'm Andrew

And I'd like to teach you EQ.

Over the last 10 years of mixing shows, I’ve taught myself how to break down the task of EQ, so that I can get to work, avoid overwhelm and deliver great shows every single time. 

I can explain the fundamentals of EQ to you in a clear and easy to understand manner,  you'll get it in no time.

"Hands on instruction with good, sound advice"

Don't just take my word for it! Here's the results that students are getting:

"There was a lot of feedback and now very little to none"

 

"Extremely concise and simple"

EQ is not magic

I started working with music when I was 22. Everything I touched sounded lame. I learned about EQ shortly after, now everything sounded even worse! 
EQ is not magic, and that can teach you 2 important lessons:

 1. You cannot just slap some EQ on something and expect it to sound better.

2. If you devote time and learning then you can master EQ just like any other skill.

By beginning to break the problem up into smaller sections you'll be able to tackle them one by one.

You will get the hang of it and finally master the skill.

Once you've mastered live EQ, you'll get compliments nearly every day about how natural, punchy or just plain good a mix sounds. 

And it's all based on good EQ.

Master Live EQ is a video course that teaches you how to think about and use EQ.

Craft better mixes and get the most out of your live shows.

A new perspective.

If your current EQ strategy isn’t getting you the results you want, try looking at things from a new perspective.

Master live EQ is taught over 5 videos, in total about 90 minutes long. It covers everything you need to know but is compact enough to learn quickly and revisit. 

The course is taught through 6 video modules

Alternatively...

You could of course go to an institution to study audio and learn about EQ. While you may gain an understanding of how EQ works in theory, you might not get any real guidance on implementing this in a real-life situation. University professors are often academics, very well-read but removed from the front line of live sound. 
 
They don’t mix shows. As a result, they don’t understand the stress of a live sound situation and they don’t understand the importance of having a flexible framework that they can apply to remain calm under pressure. 
Studying at an institution requires a significant investment of both time and money. If you’re lucky enough to get free tuition or a scholarship then you will still use 3 -4 years of your life to gain this information. What’s more, you’ll use 90% of that time learning about things other than EQ. I spent 24 weeks across 2 semesters learning about sound for video games. That’s really cool but not exactly useful as a live sound engineer…

Spending all that time is the best-case scenario. If you throw in tuition fees, accommodation, a car, and a night on the town here and there, You’ve easily spent $100,000 before you’re “ready” to mix a show. 

Forget 4 years.

Learn all you need to know about EQ in just two hours.

Do you play videogames?

For the cost of a shiny new PlayStation game and a few hours of your time, you can gain insight from an active industry professional. I've also studied (and taught) audio at university. 

Would you like to learn from people who don’t mix shows?

Or would you rather become someone who mixes amazing shows?

Someone who delivers amazing experiences to audiences year-round?

Access to Master Live EQ starts from just $97!

The next steps

EQ is not the only skill you need to develop to mix a great show.
I’ve included a few bonus guides to help with the other important aspects of mixing live events.

Compression cheat sheet

  • Learn why we use compression so you know when to use it and when to avoid it.
  • Common instruments that require compression - skip decision fatigue and reach for compression right away.
  • When not to use compression - more life in your mixes by avoiding compression when it’s not needed.
  • Common problems - No more feedback caused by bad compression.
  • Common compression settings. Dial it in quicker and get the mix sounding great in less time.

Gating cheat sheet


What gating is for - Avoid feedback by properly using noise gates.
  • When to use - Quickly determine whether to use a gate or not.
  • Common problems - Ensure natural sound on every channel.
  • A step-by-step guide so you can set all the settings with confidence.
  • A sneaky trick so you can use your gate to fix poorly tuned drums 

It's not for everyone

This course is not for everyone so I want you to make an informed choice.

This course is not for you if:
  1. Have been mixing for years and are already happy with your EQ skills
  2. You are not self-motivated and are unlikely to commit to the work.
  3. You want an instant fix for bad mixes, this will take time and effort beyond the course material. 
  4. You want a chart that will show you all the frequencies to cut and boost for each instrument.

You have a choice

You can choose to make a small investment with a massive impact on your future.

Picture yourself leaning over the mixer in a flow state, the band has just started playing, your hands are moving quickly. Your brain steps logically through the sounds that you hear and how they have changed since soundcheck.
As you approach the end of the first song you begin to think to yourself, “This is starting to sound pretty great”. It’s not a shock to you, you’re used to it, you’ve spent the last year or so honing your craft and now you craft mixes like a well-oiled machine.
The promoter leans in to tell you that it sounds fantastic, and the crowd is alive and pulsing with energy. 
After the show, a member of the audience comes over on the way out just to compliment you on the great sound.
Later, as you clear the stage the band arrives to collect their equipment, all of them are on cloud 9 and can’t stop telling you how grateful they are.

This isn’t a fantasy

These things happen. They happen to me. I’m not trying to brag. These moments are the best part of mixing live sound, and I want you to experience them as well.

What’s the alternative?

You choose a massive investment with a small impact on your future.

Picture yourself leaning over a desk, at a computer, trying to get your head around audio plug-in design. You only wanted to mix shows, to be part of something exciting.

You’ve been at this for 3 years, you’re broke, you know a little about a lot of different things within the audio industry and your professors encourage you to go to conferences. When you experience live events it’s as a bystander.

You think about talking to the engineer.

 But all you manage is: 
"Thanks for an great show".
You go home and bury your head in spreadsheets, trying to make sense of all the data you’ve gathered.
It's about the fundamental frequency of the letter A in the local dialect.
It’s a long number in a long list.
It means nothing and gives you no satisfaction.

This is also not a fantasy.

This also happened to me.

 I did enjoy my time at university but it brought me no closer to where I wanted to be, mixing shows. 

Where do you want to be?
If the answer is mixing live shows then invest your money and time into Master Live EQ and take a step closer to a life of excitement, adrenaline, flow and great shows.
