THE STORY OF THIS GUIDE
My first initial idea for this guide came up when I did research for building my second music and audio production place. I thought about, “What the hell would I do, if I started from scratch without knowing anything about the production as someone who just want to make my songs audible in the best possible way.”
When I started to record my music, I knew nothing about and learned many things through trail and error. Of course, more than two decades ago, we already had all the needed information, but it was never so easy to reach all that content or use the technology for music production like today.
But with all the possibilities, the daily new (repeated) content, it is more complex to step through this crowed of information and make the best decision for yourself — the way you want, require and can go.
With all that in mind, I came up with the creation idea of this helping guide „Producing yourself in music — yes or no” to ask the right question and find the best answers. With this guidance, you will get to know how to find the best solution for your knowledge, your resources, your wishes, your music and of course for yourself.
What you will know AT THE END OF THIS GUIDE
This eBook contains a straightforward phase by step guidance that will lead you to the process of making the best decisions on how to produce your music.
As an attachment, you will find a helpful checklist and worksheets that complete this guide and will keep no question unanswered.
The information is based on facts, with examples and real life stories.

WHAT IS INSIDE THE COURSE
What makes this course different?
There are no „Secrets“! - Get to know how all works together
In this course, transparency is key. I’m not here to sell you a secret formula or promise overnight success. Instead, I offer a step-by-step solution crafted to empower you on your journey of mixing handcrafted songs.
Together, we’ll break down the process into manageable steps, providing you with the tools, knowledge, and guidance needed to elevate your skills and produce a balanced audible pleasure.
I'm not trying to shape you into a "pro" audio engineer
Working like a mixing engineer from the perspective of a musician role can’t be done overnight.
Understanding what doesn’t work is as crucial as discovering what does. It’s through these experiences that you refine your mixing skills, develop your unique style of balancing your sound, and find alternative paths to achieving your goals.
It’s not about reaching the destination in a rush — it’s about the progress you make and the knowledge you gain along the way.
I show you the how and the why!
In this course, I’m not just here to reveal the “how” of mixing; I’m committed to showing you the “why” behind each technique. While it’s tempting to rely on the allure of industry “tricks” and “secrets,” understanding the rationale behind every action is paramount.
Knowing why you’re using a technique helps you make better decisions that match your unique musical vision. By providing context and insight into the reasoning behind each step, you’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of the principles governing successful mixing.
