Choose to Succeed With Your Music
You've worked hard on your songs.
You’ve written and recorded all the parts.
You’ve mixed the song to the best of your abilities.
You’re ready to release them to the world because you hear the music on the radio and you know that your music is just as good - if not better.
At least, you think it is…
But maybe there’s that hint of doubt, gnawing at the back of your mind.
Maybe you start to ask yourself questions like:
- Is my mix really radio-ready?
- Am I too close to my own music to judge it accurately?
- What if my friends and family are just telling me what I want to hear?
It’s perfectly normal to have these kinds of questions, especially when you work by yourself most of the time.
But ISOLATION can make it nearly impossible to tell if the music you’re producing is good enough.
What you need is other motivated, talented, and productive musicians and producers to share ideas and get feedback.
You need COMMUNITY.
- ISOLATION means a lack of feedback and doubt about your music.
- COMMUNITY provides you the feedback and help you need to confidently produce music that you KNOW is high quality.
- ISOLATION means getting lost while mixing, working endlessly on the same song, and wasting the valuable time you have for music.
- COMMUNITY provides an outside perspective, accountability, and direction, so you don’t stay stuck in the same place for too long. This makes you more productive and saves time.
- ISOLATION means the risk of getting stuck in a rut, with limited access to resources, instruments that you can’t play, and styles that you’re not familiar with.
- COMMUNITY provides a wide range of potential collaborators and opportunities to expand your musical horizons.
But where can you find this kind of COMMUNITY?
Hi, I'm Björgvin Benediktsson
Don't worry...you can call me B. That's what my friends do so now you can too.
I'm the musician, mixing engineer, and audio educator behind Audio Issues and since 2009 I've helped thousands of musicians, engineers, and producers like yourself make a bigger impact with their music by teaching them the skills they need to succeed.
Through my own personal experience and the experience of people who have taken my courses I realized that, while there is no shortage of educational resources out there for music producers, there aren’t a lot of supportive communities that these artists and producers can join.
Making music in your home studio can be a lonely endeavor where you're never really sure whether you're making the right moves to improve.

If you’re anything like my students when they first started out, you’ve got some half-finished songs sitting on your hard drive.
You know how to get started and the thrill of recording a new song idea excited you.
You can find your way around your DAW and you know the basics of putting down your tracks together.
But you don’t know whether your mixes are good enough.
You think they sound fine, but when you play them side by side to your favorite records, your mixes don’t stand a chance.
- Your mixes are quieter.
- The low-mids feel muddy.
- The vocals sound harsh.
And you just KNOW that your tracks can sound better.
You know you’ve recorded your tracks well. Sometimes you’re even using the same samples as the songs you hear on Spotify or Soundcloud! But for some reason, your songs just don’t sound professional enough.
So you don't finish anything.
That's the sad part.
Some people stop short of releasing their music because they get crushed by self-doubt and imposter syndrome.
I don’t know how often I’ve heard my subscribers freeze up because they’re too frustrated with their skills to finally finish and release their records.
Maybe you’re the same way?
One of my subscribers is a producer who’s been making beats and producing for other artists for 14 years. But he's never put out a record of his own because of crippling self-doubt.
He told me that the more he listened to his mix, the more he wanted to put it back in the “Hard Drive Graveyard” with all the others.
He finally realized that the only way to grow and develop as a musician was to step out of his comfort zone and let the song into the world.
He shared with me,
“Honestly when I saw my song on Spotify it was a HUGE weight lifted off my shoulders, it’s like I let the song go and now I really don’t have all those worries that I had before. I love the song and when I put it out I got some great feedback on it. I can now check that one off the list and move on to my next project. “
The key to growing as a home studio musician and bedroom producer is to actually release your songs!
So many of my students have achieved this that I created a Spotify playlist of all the people who said my tips had helped them release their music. It makes for quite the eclectic playlist, and that’s something that makes me even happier.
Here's are Some of My Favorite Tracks
Creating music but not releasing it is like running a marathon and then walking off the track right before the finish line.
You know that when you’ve finished your songs you should release them.
Releasing your music should be motivating and exciting. Seeing your songs come out on streaming platforms should make you feel elated.
You know this to be true, but still, your song sits there unfinished.
It breaks my heart to know how some people stop short of releasing their music just because they get crushed by imposter syndrome.
I have a student who struggles with this so much it's stalled his career. He has songs in the final stages of being ready. They’re mixed, but he thinks there is more that can be done.
He’s even had legit producers check out his productions. The producer told him to release it because the mix sounded great but he still felt like there is more he could do.
He’s trapped in a downward spiral of self-criticism because he can’t call them finished, even though he’s noticed significant improvement from when he started!
I don’t know how often I’ve heard the same frustrations from my subscribers.
Whenever they pull up a new song to finish, they struggle to get a good balance between the instruments. They try to make everything fit together in the frequency spectrum but making everything cut through is like juggling eighteen bowling balls, five knives, and your Grandma’s antique porcelain plates.
But what if you don't need to figure all this stuff out on your own?
You don't have to miss out on the feeling of achievement from seeing your song everywhere.
You deserve that surge of excitement when someone tells you that your music reminds them of a famous hit song.
It’s a thrill to see your songs, album art, and credits online after all the work you’ve put into the production process.
Best of all, everybody can hear it, wherever they are in the world. Having your music on an international music app for everyone to listen to is simply amazing.
You realize how much fun it is and you get ambitious to do it again. Once you’ve released your records, you can proudly say, “yeah, I’m on Spotify. I’m on Apple Music. You can find me there.”
This is what I want to help you achieve, which is why I’m proud to invite you to join...

Since joining he has become confident with his mixing and engineering skills and his music has allowed him to start charging for his work as a professional engineer.

John Owings - From Fullsail University to Audio Issues Insiders
John was a touring musician before his band was dropped by their label. He went to Fullsail University to pursue his passion for audio production where his professors used my materials from Audio Issues to complement their teaching.
He shared with me how the personal attention he gets from me as an Insider is what separates the membership from any other VIP community.
"I’m improving so fast that my own mixes are blowing me away"
Neil joined us as an Insider and we couldn't have been happier with his progress. His music sounded like Bon Iver if he used more electric guitars and had the voice from the singer from Dawes. Here's what he had to say about his experience as an Insider.
"I appreciate your help in the last 6 months. I’m improving so fast that my own mixes are blowing me away and I have to say I owe it mostly to Audio Issues. The Mix Finisher Formula really took me places. I now know how to properly use compression, create space in the music and organise my work flow among many other things. As an Insider, sharing mixes and getting feedback from a bunch of generous, talented people has been invaluable. You are a true teacher, dedicated to and focused on addressing the needs of individual members. You're likeable, fun to work with and I really believe your heart is in the right place. Thanks again." -Neil Curzon

What Are People Saying About Our Training?

Bob Gardner, working on rock music for sync licensing in Ohio
"Audio Insiders has fast-tracked my growth as a mixer and producer. I love the sense of community around Feedback Friday. It's inspiring to--metaphorically speaking--rub shoulders with like-minded people and learn from one another. I personally love Audio Issues Insiders."

Danny Kroonen working on rock and pop in Holland
"Audio Issues Insiders helped me focus more on the things that matter, rather than relying on ears and trial and error-things alone. What I like most about it is the way the content is written and provided and the very open approach to others."

Simon Rider, Bedroom Producer working on various styles of electronica
"I joined to learn more about mixing and mastering. Feedback from other members has given me the confidence to share my music and the sense of community and the Feedback Friday sessions is what I love the most about Insiders"

Konstantin, working on dub-style saxophone soundtracks in Berlin
"I joined Insiders because I needed help. And I needed something to start with that wasn't too costly, your offer seemed exactly the appropriate setting for me and it proved to be a really good decision. Audio Issues Insiders has given me more confidence in mixing and encouragement to challenge marketing. Honestly for the price its awsome!! I guess I'd have to hug you first once I get to meet you in person;-)"

Bob Gemmell, Singer/Songwriter, California
"I've been very impressed by Bjorgvin's tutorials, and he's a great person. Bjorgvin's webinars are informative and engaging, and he's responsive to questions. The live and recorded sessions where Bjorgvin imparts mixing and promotion information is my favorite part of Insiders. I also like the Audio Issues Insiders community. A lot of talent in here. My new album Parts and Labor just went up on Spotify, etc. and the courses are what pulled it over the finish line. There is very little in this world more soul-satisfying than completing this long process with something you can feel proud of – something that is in the world forever.”

Kjell-Vidar Teig, Home Studio Rock Musician, Sweden
"I was a total rookie a couple of years ago and I found your forum online. I learned a lot from your followers in there, and also by you. I've taken the Mixing With 5 Plug-ins course, read a lot of different stuff you have around, and also did your online 1-on-1 lessons which really made a huge difference. Talking to you in person and getting pinpointed tips was really helpful. When we first met I had already made one album which was... kinda ok, but I just knew that I needed to learn more. My final album would never have been the same without you"
Mark Rousell, Engineer/Musician
As a recent student of yours, I also wanted to thank you for the content. You have a knack at getting information across which has allowed me to break down barriers. Seeing some of your 'unconventional' EQ curves has provided me the confidence to start trusting my ears - not the visualizer. I'm now very comfortable employing the strategy that there is no actual convention. Your approach to space and depth has also really helped me understand how to approach this area of the mix...This philosophy has been the most freeing of them all. I have subscribed to other online courses, and watched many, many hours of YouTube content; but nothing has unwrapped the key to the puzzle in the same way you've been able to...my mixes have improved beyond all doubt. Most importantly, my 'bigger picture' perspective towards the process has shifted towards 'feeling' the whole song instead of getting caught up on the micro-details. I always knew this is what was required, but I simply didn't have a clear direction on how to achieve it. You have provided that in abundance. Consider me a very happy customer.
Wyn Evans, Home Studio Mixer
"Overall, I really enjoyed the course. I think for me the most valuable thing was seeing your screen and watching your thought process visually. I have read mixing textbooks in the past and the information is simply too dense to be all that useful. In particular, the "Mixing with no plug-ins" video was extremely helpful. I realized that many of my major mixing woes were caused by poor organization and skipping over fundamentals. I've been mixing for a while as a hobby and in that time have picked up many bad habits, and this course definitely helped me re-learn the habits that make for better mixes. I really enjoyed the course. I personally didn't really want to use the song that you were mixing and instead opted for applying the techniques I learned from the videos to my own mix. I would certainly recommend this course to anyone who is starting out on their mixing journey as well as folks like me who have been mixing for a while but haven't learned good fundamentals. I am very satisfied with my purchase. Thanks so much for doing what you do, Björgvin!""
Here's How Becoming an Insider Works:
Step 1: Become an Insider
Once you choose your membership plan and complete registration, you'll immediately have the opportunity to create an account and join us inside the Insiders community where you also get access to the Audio Issues Academy.
You'll get a personal path to follow through the Audio Issues Academy so that you don't feel overwhelmed with everything that you want to learn.
There are a few distinct paths to take so that you can fast-track your results and increase your chances of success.
Step 2: Decide on Your Goals
The first thing you do as an Insider is set yourself a goal for the next 30 days. This goal varies from person to person, but it often includes things like:
- Record the scratch tracks for your new song
- Find a collaborator to help you flesh out your arrangements
- Finally finish that mix and release it
- Set up your online presence to share your music
The main point of these goals is to create a simple, actionable end point you can work towards so that you can make momentum with your music.
This is how some of our Insiders have gone on to release more music in a few months as an Insider than they did in the previous year (or years!) before.

Step 3: Get Continuous Support to Reach Your Goal
Each month you’ll have plenty of opportunities to get help from the community.
You’ll have access to:
- Self-Paced Learning Through the Audio Issues Academy: The Audio Issues Academy has over 100 hours of video training on everything you need to know about songwriting, arranging, production, mixing, mastering, and marketing your music.
- Weekly Coaching Calls: Every week you'll have access to our live group coaching calls so you can keep track of your musical goals and plan for what you want to achieve in the next month. This is where we work on mixes, dive into production techniques and help each other understand the production process. These are office-hour style group calls and I will go around the "room" and help each person with whatever questions they have that month. You won't just learn from me helping you directly, but also from the other Insiders on the call whose problems you can relate to as well. This is great for you to get clarity on what you want to achieve next with your music.
Once you become an Insider, you should never feel like you’re working on your music alone because you'll always have access to experienced people to answer your questions, guide you through your problems, and help you improve so that become confident in the quality of your music.
There are plenty of similar communities out there, but the level of personal attention and support you get, along with the many hours of self-paced content, separates Audio Issues Insiders from all the other audio education communities.

How much time does it take?

What if I put all this effort in and my music still sucks?
Is this for beginners or advanced engineers?
I only do [insert random music genre here]. Will this help me?
"But music is just a hobby to me, why should I care about mixing?"
Do you have any big-name credits that you've worked with?
Can't I just learn this on Youtube?
"But I'm just a live sound guy...how will this help?"
