Mix It Like A Record by Charles Dye is an enormously successful and widely praised interactive mixing course that teaches the secrets of professional mixing.

Leading industry professionals, pro audio critics, top educators, bestselling authors and users all agree, Mix It Like A Record (also known as MiLaR) is the best and fastest way to learn the elusive skill of mixing.

Grammy-winning engineer/mixer/producer Charles Dye (Lauryn Hill, Jon Bon Jovi, Julio Iglesias, Sammy Hagar, Ricky Martin) teaches how to get big sounding, record-quality mixes. You’ll learn how to get amazing sounds using the latest plug-ins, breathe emotion into the music with automation, and make the artist sound like a star.

It features three hours of video-based mixing instruction, a dual-layer DVD that contains 40 Pro Tools LE and TDM sessions, raw tracks you can import into any DAW (Logic, Nuendo, Cakewalk, etc.), effects session templates and custom presets for every plug-in.

I managed to snag some very cool (and surprising lengthy) previews and excerpts from the DVD. Have a look.

“It’s taken me 20 years, working with the best mixers in the business, to grasp most of the concepts so effortlessly explained with MiLaR, and I still learned a couple of new ones. I only wish it was made 20 years ago.” – Tommy Torres, producer/artist/songwriter (Ricky Martin, Son by Four, Jaci Velasquez, Paulina Rubio)
