About Course

Studio Essentials: Digital Engineering focuses on advanced in-the-box (ITB) mixing and mastering techniques using modern DAWs and plug-ins. Students will develop skills in high-precision equalization, dynamics processing, spatial design, signal routing, automation, and final delivery for multiple platforms. The goal is to produce professional mixes that leverage the full advantages of digital processing and workflow.

Topics & Goals



Digital Session Setup

Learn to configure DAW sessions for CPU efficiency, latency management, and precise gain staging.



Precision Equalization

Apply advanced EQ methods including linear phase, dynamic EQ, and surgical resonance removal.



Digital Compression & Limiting

Use advanced compression, multi-band processing, and limiting for transparent and loudness-compliant mixes.



Spatial Processing

Design mixes with convolution reverb, algorithmic reverb, and delay-based widening techniques.



Signal Flow Management

Build efficient routing systems using subgroups, parallel processing, and stem workflows.



Mix Bus Processing & Automation

Apply bus compression, subtle tonal shaping, and detailed automation to enhance dynamics and movement.



Integrated Mixing & Mastering

Combine mixing and mastering in a single workflow, ensuring translation across playback platforms.
