Processing and Mixing

In this lesson I will share the sound engineering secrets that will transform your voice from what you hear every day to the rich, warm, broadcast voice that you hear on your favourite radio show.

Make every guest on your show sound equally present, even if they have been recorded on the other side of the world, with a different microphone and on a different device.

Let us demystify tools like the compressor and EQ for you. We will explain what all the terms and settings mean, in a way that makes sense, so that you will be able to apply them accordingly.

You will learn everything you need to know about dynamics, noise reduction and other tools, so that you know not only why and how they are necessary, but also when they are necessary, and probably more importantly, when they aren’t.

I will teach everything that you need to do to polish your production to broadcast quality sound. Whether you are mixing sound at home, in an office, studio, or on a plane, by the end of this course you will have all the skills necessary to produce a show that’s sounds polished and is a pleasure to listen to wherever your audience pick up their podcasts.

What People Are Saying

There are a lot of real people who have worked with Matt and love his work.

  • I have worked with Matt about a gazillion times over the years. He recorded one of the first ads I ever recorded for Nintendo 64 back in about 1936, and we must have recorded about two hundred documentaries for National Geographic together over the years. He’s an ace engineer. Super helpful. And he sorted me right out when lockdown happened, helping me set up my home studio and getting all the settings right. Go Matt.

  • The course covered all aspects of podcast production, from scripting & presenting right through to the publishing & marketing of the show.  There was plenty of practical learning, which was hugely beneficial especially given the technical & complex nature of learning how to use the editing & mixing software.  
    I would highly recommend this course to anyone who is keen to have deep understanding of the podcast production process.  I would also highly recommend this course to any producer who wishes to enhance their knowledge of audio production as a whole.  
    Thank you so much Matt for a brilliant course!
