Never Struggle With EQ Ever Again

If you've ever struggled with:

Muddy bass
Harsh high-end
Amateur mixes

…then I hear your pain.

But what if I told you that you only need one technique to make all those problems disappear?

And when you master this one thing, you'll start making clean and clear mixes with powerful bass and sparkling high-end.

Here's the story of how I discovered the amazing power of this technique.

Back in 2006, I got my first audio job as a sound tech at a small venue called The Old Library.

As excited as I was for the job, it started off as a complete disaster.

You see, The Old Library had a terrible reputation for its sound. Bands would only play there as a last resort.

So I got thrown into the deep end and did NOT know how to swim...

With a lonely mixer with a four-band EQ, I made the most of the situation, twisting knobs, pushing faders, and trying to make the music sound good.

But EQ was like a foreign programming language that only professional engineers understood.

I had no idea how—or where—to boost or cut frequencies to improve the sound of my mixes.

So, I used the only method available to me:

Trial and Error!

Desperately twisting knobs back and forth in a dimly lit diver bar isn’t the best way to learn EQ. You can't even see what you're doing!

Sure, any time I tweaked the EQ, the mix changed.

Sometimes for the better.

But most of the time...for the worse.

The kick drum kept clashing with my bass guitar. The guitars drowned out the vocals. And my entire mix always sounded like a harsh, exhausting mess.

When I tamed the harshness in my mix, it usually ended up muddy instead.

But I kept at it, refusing to give up before I knew how it all worked.

I slowly learned that understanding frequencies was like learning the right chord progressions or finding the right scales to solo over a song.

After countless hours behind the mixing board, I realized something that would instantly improve my audio skills.

EQ is THE Most Important Tool for Making Better Mixes

Whether doing live sound, recording demos in your bedroom, or working on mixes in your home studio, EQ will help you make better music.

Forget about thin-sounding vocals, boomy bass, or harsh guitars! With the correct EQ moves, you can make every instrument sound exactly how you want it to.

EQ helps you create punchy low-end and sparkling highs
EQ helps you separate guitars and vocals so that you hear them distinctly in all their detail
EQ cleans up your low end and makes your kick drum and bass fill out the lows instead of clashing to create a muddy mix

When you know how to EQ, you know exactly where to find the frequencies destroying your mix.

I quickly learned to eliminate boominess and mud by controlling the low mids between 100 - 200 Hz.

I discovered a simple way to create space for the vocals in the high mids while keeping the rest of the arrangement clean and present.

By sculpting the frequencies of each track, I could create separation between my instruments and balance in my mixes with just my EQ!

It Was Like a Cheat Sheet for Making Great Mixes!

EQ helped me transform that music venue into an in-demand spot where all the coolest indie artists wanted to play.

But I wouldn't have been able to make those shows sound so great without my newly acquired knowledge of EQ.

Understanding EQ wasn’t a choice; it was necessary to make everything sound good.

Since then, I've mastered the frequency spectrum.

I've learned to wipe the mud off even the busiest mixes, leaving them clean, clear, and professional.

Do You Share My EQ Struggles?

If you've tried all the tips you've found on YouTube and bought into the hype of every new plug-in out there, but nothing's worked...it's NOT your fault.

If you struggle to create depth, balance, and separation in your mixes but don't know how to make your songs explode* from the speakers like your favorite records - you're not alone.

(*And by explode, I mean metaphorically and musically, not in a home studio insurance scam sorta way…)

If you're like most of my students, you run into the same problems every time:

Your tracks squabble like siblings, and you can't separate them in the frequency spectrum
Your low end sounds so muddy that your bass and kick might as well sign up for the next Tough Mudder race
You don't know how to get your instruments to cut through the mix, so you add so much high-end that your dog serves you divorce papers

And most importantly, you can't get that big present vocal sound you hear from your favorite artists.

If that's the case, here's how you can finally fix your muddy mixes so your music sounds like your favorite records.

(Unless your favorite record is "Who Let the Dogs Out" by Baha Men, in which case, you're on your own).

You’re Walking a Tightrope

EQ’ing your mixes can feel frustrating:

When you boost the bass, your mix sounds muddy.
Whenever you add high-end, your mix sounds too harsh.

You don’t know how much you should boost, and you’re worried that you’re cutting the life out of your mix.

You’re trying to make your mix sound like you hear it in your head, but you're dangerously close to hearing voices instead.

You've tried all the techniques you've read about on blogs, watched on YouTube, or heard from your mom's dentist who can't stop talking about his new beats.

Some people tell you that you should only use subtractive EQ, even though you feel like boosting makes everything sound better.

And as you jump from one trick to another, the advice feels more contradictory.

You're scared of damaging your mix because you're never sure whether you're doing the right things to make your mixes clean and present.

“Can Somebody Tell Me the Sweet Spots Already?!?”

You wish somebody would tell you where to EQ your tracks so you can finish your mix and release your record.

Instead, they roll their eyes and tell you to "use your ears" when all you want is real, actionable advice.

But those audio engineers want to keep their secrets to themselves so they can sell you on their services, not realizing that they're being so unhelpful I'm not sure how anybody would hire them.

Even when you know you're making your mix sound better, you can't stop EQ'ing because you never know when you're done. It's like that scab they tell you won't ever heal if you don't stop scratching it.

So What's the Solution?

Magic jelly beans? Elven ears? A super soldier serum made from the DNA of last century's Grammy winners?

Not quite.

After 15+ years of working as an audio engineer, mixing live, studio, and broadcast sound, I realized that EQ could fix the biggest problems with people's mixes.

Understanding EQ is the key to making mixes that translate and sound great everywhere, so I created the #1 resource online for you to finally master the frequency spectrum and make better mixes.

"Gave me a sense of how essential EQ'ing is"

"The EQ Course was eye-opening in many ways. Having had no previous information on mixing, the course really gave me a sense of how essential EQ'ing is to the process. It helped me take my mixes from muddy and boomy to fairly clear and definitely helped me get some punch into kicks and basses. Some really basic things that I hadn't even considered, which really changed the way I approach music: like EQ'ing the reverb and delay effects themselves to avoid conflicts on different frequencies. it does an effective job of squeezing much information into little time, and the formulations are clear and pedagogical. The amount of useful information I gained from the course was impressive, and I am extremely grateful for having been given these gems!"

- Maximillian

"really did make a noticeable difference"

"The impression I got from the course is that you are one of the rare few who has both the ability to understand complex technical concepts and the ability to effectively communicate them in common, everyday language. A few of the tips I got from the course really did make a noticeable difference in a couple of projects I am working on. The course gave me a good sense of your style and the fact that there so much useful information for free led me to believe that the stuff you have to pay for must be really great (which I later found to be true)...I am very impressed with everything. The quality of the material is fantastic, and the publications are beautiful. The graphics, the layout, and the videos are all very impressive...and I am really excited about learning."

Imagine: Easy EQ'ing In a Matter of Days

I spent 10+ years learning about EQ, but you can master the frequency spectrum in only a fraction of the time.

EQ doesn't have to be a mystery. You've seen how many of my students have instantly improved their mixes by using my EQ knowledge.

And I've shown you how powerful EQ is to solve many of your biggest mixing problems.

Of course, you can still learn about EQ the old-fashioned way with trial and error, spending years figuring out what each part of the frequency spectrum sounds like.

But wouldn't it be easier if you received all the shortcuts immediately?

Once you master the frequency spectrum, you'll know exactly where your instruments are clashing, making any EQ problem easy to fix.

Once you master EQ, you can create space and separation between all the instruments in your mix.

You no longer need to worry about muddy mixes because you'll know how to clean up your low-mids.
You don't need to worry about a boxy drum sound because you know exactly how to EQ your drums to make them sound smoother.
You don't need to be scared about whether you're adding too much high-end harshness because you'll know exactly how to tame your high-mids.

So if you want to master the art of EQ'ing, look no further.

I'm able to get a clean and tight low end on this song I'm working on. I cut some of the mud out of the kick and bass, then I let the kick have a little extra 50 Hz and added a little bit around 800 Hz on the bass guitar. That made the low end clear and punchy. This is a great guide to get things moving in the right direction!!! Thank You!!!!"

- Jeff Smith, Mixing Engineer

- Alan Doyle, Recording Engineer, Sound Designer and Score Developer

"I felt like my mixes were lacking in the middle frequencies and the frequency analyzer showed me this. With the EQ, I was able to find frequencies in this area using your Reverse-EQ Method. This EQ, along with the books will help even seasoned engineers to learn new methods and reinforce their knowledge."
