Start the course by getting to know Luca Petricca and his story. He shows you some of his most prominent work as a music producer and mixer and shares his biggest musical influences and favorite albums.

Get into the groove by discovering the different roles and responsibilities of a mixer in a music project. Dive into the basics of Pro Tools and learn how to prepare tracks for mixing before exploring more advanced concepts like how to keep instruments in time, tune vocals, and layer in drums.
