Mix is the world's leading magazine for the professional recording and sound production technology industry. Mix covers a wide range of topics including: recording, live sound and production, broadcast production, audio for film and video, and music technology.

The world of sound design is a fertile industry right now, with different mediums such as film, television and video gaming constantly requiring fresh sonic environments – hence the influx of various different plug-ins and instruments, which are built to cater for those aural visionaries who make a living through building worlds using their music. In our lead feature this month we highlight many of the best tools of the trade to equip you to experiment yourself, we present step-by-step guides to various processes, as well as interviews with those whose careers have been built in the world of professional sound design, quite often by blending it with their music-making process. Elsewhere, we speak to former Stereophonics drummer Javier Weyler, whose company Breaking Waves facilitate the sonic needs of filmmakers in innovative, creative ways. We also talk to mix engineer Giles Barrett about his boat-based studio (yes, you read that right!). Of course we’ve got our usual range of in-depth reviews and an ever-expanding tutorial section – including a brand new Reason series.

This course provides a no-nonsense approach for beginning sound engineers, allowing them to quickly learn to operate a professional audio mixer. The course is great for all beginning band, venue and church sound engineers and it covers all of the basic features of mixing boards and exactly how to implement them. There is no filler in this course. Every minute is packed full of valuable information.

Progressive House is a genre that has captured the hearts and souls of thousands over the past few years. The enthralling melodies, lush chords, and stellar songwriting all play a huge part in how dear this genre is to so many people. But even with how popular Progressive House is, we were surprised to find that there was a lack of high quality presets available for producers… Because of this, we felt that we HAD to make Eclipse for producers like you.
