Product Information
Unlock the power of dynamic processing with the Masterclass in Compression, Limiters, and Gates. In over 3 hours of premium HD training, you will go beyond just turning knobs and learn exactly how to shape the energy, punch, and clarity of your mixes. Whether you are struggling to make a vocal sit perfectly in a mix or trying to get your drums to "thump" like a commercial record, this course is your definitive guide to mastering dynamics.
Taught by 30-year veteran engineer David Wills (Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, Phil Collins), this masterclass is designed for those who want to "know it all." The curriculum is based on high-end industry standards taught at prestigious schools like Berklee and Full Sail. You will explore the history of dynamic processors, master the physics of threshold, ratio, and attack/release, and deep-dive into the distinct characters of Vintage, Optical, FET, Tube, and VCA compressors.
The course includes a massive "Dynamic Processors in Action" section where you watch David apply these tools to Kick Drums, Snares, Bass, Electric and Acoustic Guitars, Pianos, and multiple Vocal types. By the end of this training, you will have the confidence to walk into any studio or open any plugin and know exactly how to dial in the perfect sound.
