I'm making music for some time, even earning money with it. As far as music theory I feel that I have covered the bases (many, many years ago I was in a music school:), but when it comes to mixing I'm self-taught. I'm doing mostly electronic music - because my rock mixes suck big time (and I started as a black-metal dude - the irony...). Electronic music using Massive and similar VSTi's is easier to mix on a "usable" level
My primary job is video editing, but sometimes in my work I clean-up Pro Tools projects or do little mixes in a ready made templates by sound-engineers from our company. And many times I don't really understand why they used "this plugin" or "that plugin" with "this settings" or "that settings". And they don't really have time to answer my questions
I have some knowledge about equing, compression - but as I looked at these projects I've understood that I need get strong in basics and train my ear...
So I thought - maybe I will find some good online school or mixing course... I know about some, but I'm curious which ones you would recommend. I'm looking for ones with a human contact, with homeworks and stuff
