Music Mixing Engineering for All levels - Learn how to get the best sounds from your recordings.

Van 60 € /h

Mixing a recorded music is the art to connect musical ideas to emotions.
Whether it is your music or someone else’s recordings, I’ll help you develop your skills in order to give the perfect “make up” to any song.

But what exactly is Music Mixing Engineering?
Imagine that you recorded drums, bass, keyboard, guitars and vocal.

Now you have to put everything together and be able to listen to all the instruments with perfect sonic separation. You need to match the emotional intention of the composer to the emotions of the listener.
The decision to make the voice louder or not, bring the guitars to attention only in a specific moment of the song, specify the type of reverberation and so many other decisions is the responsibility of the one working on the mix.

I’ll teach you all the 7 main steps for every successful mix and work in-depth each of those according to your development or previous knowledge.

I’ll fine tune the lessons specifically for your needs.

We can work with your recordings, but if you don't have one, don't worry.
I'll bring multi-tracks recordings of different genres for you to learn and practice along.

Common Questions:

- Do I need to be a musician to mix a music?
Although it certainly helps, you don't need to know how to play any instrument.

- I don't have monitors or an acoustically treated room, can I learn anyway?
For sure yes.
You can use headphone and simple speakers like the one from your notebook, for example.
Once you'll understand the techniques and develop your hearing, you move to the next level.

- Which software (DAW) should I use?
If you're starting now, I recommend Reaper or Logic Pro.
If you're already experienced, any DAW of your preference.

Book now and start learning from beginner to Pro the art of mixing.

Extra informatie

You can start with a pair of headphones or studio monitors (ideally).

ABOUT ME
Music is my passion, and I love to share that passion with others, particularly my students!
I'm a keyboardist, musical producer, soundtrack composer, sound designer and mixing engineer.
I work for the music industry since 1995, having used the most primitive DAWs you could ever imagine. :)

Opleiding

I have and addiction for knowledge and almost always it has been in a self-taught way.
I honestly believe that if I could learn by myself, I can teach others to achieve at least the same level, but always aiming higher.

Bachelor in Industrial Design / Graphic Design

Leservaring

I also believe that a better teacher is the one who had the opportunity to face the real life, the market. I've worked with big marketing agencies and produced soundtracks, jingles and spots for big brands like Castrol, Vivo, Petrobras, Peugeot, Bradesco, Embratel, Gazeus Games and others.

As a result of my experience, I wrote a Music Mixing Engineering book in Brazil - MIX - O Poder da Mixagem (The power of Mixing) - 300 pages - 2 editions sold-out.

I also used to write articles about music production for one of the main music production magazine in Brazil (Backstage).

More than 20 years teaching musical production, mixing and many other multimedia art related topics such as photography, photoshop, music recording, soundtrack production, music for games, video production for example.

From my studio at the Berlagebrug, I give Piano lessons to beginners and (semi) advanced students. The lessons take place on a Yamaha wing and when a piece is well under control, we can make a professional recording of it.

I graduated in 1992 as a musician from the Hilversum Conservatory (nowadays Conservatory of Amsterdam) in the direction of light music, or jazz and pop. So with me, you learn not only to read notes but also chord schemes and - if you want - improvisation. Or we search together for a song that you would like to play and make a nice adaptation of it. Together we first look at exactly what you want to learn and align the curriculum.

I can also help you learn how to compose and produce. I work with Pro Tools and Logic Pro X.

For classical Piano lessons, I would rather refer you to someone else.

Have you always wanted to play an instrument that is extremely diverse and used in many different music styles? Have a dream to learn to play the trumpet but never knew where to go and where to start? Have you been playing in the past and now you want to pick it up again, or continue learning with a teacher?

Your situation might be described above or be something different, it doesn't matter. I'm offering high-quality, student-centered trumpet lessons with years of teaching experience. My goal is to help you to reach your goals with whatever you want to learn with the instrument, and also equip you with good instrument technique and general music theory knowledge. I have studied both classical and jazz music and played also pop, funk and other styles of music. I have recently graduated from the Conservatorium van Amsterdam. In addition to trumpet playing, I'm also a singer and composer. I would be more than happy to teach you what I know from these fields of activities. I hope to see you at my lessons!

Aangeboden: Vioollessen in Amsterdam-Oost.

Zelf ben ik vanaf mijn 6e begonnen met vioolles. De klank en vorm van de viool spraken mij als klein meisje aan. Tijdens de vioollessen maakte ik kennis met veel verschillende genres zoals klassiek, klezmer, popmuziek, filmmuziek etc waardoor ik heb gezien wat voor mogelijkheden er allemaal zijn met het instrument. Ik keek elke week uit naar mijn vioollessen en ging er met veel plezier naar toe.
Mijn enthousiasme zette zich voort middels een studie aan het Conservatorium van Rotterdam (Codarts) gericht op wereldmuziek/tango. Ik kwam veel in contact met andere muzikanten en genres die binnen het conservatorium gedoceerd werden. Binnen en buiten school begon ik steeds vaker cross-overs te doen, voornamelijk popmuziek projecten.
Mijn interesse in het deelnemen aan bands en het verkleuren van het vioolgeluid (door pedalen te gebruiken en door versterkers te spelen) werd zo groot dat ik besloot om van studierichting te veranderen: sinds juni 2019 ben ik de eerste violiste ooit die van de popafdeling afstudeerde.

Vioolles
Bij de vioollessen streef ik ernaar dat de leerling plezier ervaart bij het leren bespelen van de viool. De interesse van de leerling staat centraal; elk persoon leert op zijn/haar eigen tempo en manier en heeft verschillende interesses en ambities binnen het maken van muziek. Het lesprogramma zal dan ook worden aangepast naar de behoeften van de leerling. Het plezier wat ik heb meegekregen tijdens mijn eigen vioollessen hoop ik ook over te brengen op mijn eigen leerlingen.
Er zijn mogelijkheden tot individuele lessen en duo lessen. Vanaf 5/6 jaar.

Learning to play the guitar can be an amazing experience at every stage of the process! My ultimate goal is to help my students to develop their skills and musical understanding by learning and playing music that they like.

Therefore I adapt my teaching methodologies to the tastes and needs of every student. Throughout every lesson, we will work on three main courses of development: technical aspects, theoretical knowledge, and performative practice.

My classes are open for anyone who would like to enjoy exploring the universe of music: beginners and advanced, children and adults, you are all welcome to book the first lesson.

Hi, my name is Jim. I'm an electronic music producer with a Master’s degree in Music from the Fontys Academy of Arts (Rockacademie) in Tilburg, Netherlands. Music has always been my way of exploring the world — through raw field recordings, synthesis, and emotional storytelling. Over the past 12 years, I’ve developed a complete, self-sufficient creative process: from concept to composition, sound design to vocal production, mixing, mastering, and live performance. I’m passionate about helping others gain those same end-to-end technical skills — so they can bring their own musical vision fully to life.

As Malvae, I’ve written, sung, recorded, produced, mixed, mastered, and performed all of my work. My music reached #17 in the Spotify Viral 50 charts in the USA, gathered millions of streams, and featured in international film productions including King of the Streets and Netflix’s Terrace House Japan. One of the most formative moments in my career was my Amazonas album project, where I traveled into the Amazon rainforest to record and manipulate natural sounds. 90% of that album was created entirely from these field recordings, reshaped through granular synthesis and advanced sound design into a cohesive sonic journey. That experience deeply shaped how I approach my music and how I teach sound design and composition.

I’ve headlined shows at iconic venues like Melkweg Amsterdam with immersive, self-built audiovisual live sets using Ableton Live, modular gear, sequencers, and Resolume for live integrated visuals. I curated my own events and performed at venues like A’dam Tower, OT301. I also teach at studios such as Wisseloord in Hilversum, guiding students through the technical and creative intersections of sound and performance.

Selected Works & Collaborations:

My EP Like Bees to a Hive began as a soundscape for fashion brand Lobomar’s collection Final Orders, Please, presented at the Amsterdam World Museum. I collaborated with South African poet Julia-Beth Harris, integrating her spoken word into a seamless, atmospheric release. From sequential Prophet 6 textures to ADX1 drum machine layers and detailed field recordings, I handled every layer, from concept through multitrack production to the final live performance in London.

My Chrysalis EP, released as a limited-edition heavyweight red vinyl, pushed that even further, combining ethereal vocals, analog grit, and unique textures to craft an emotionally rich release. I personally led every part of the project’s technical and creative execution, from arrangement and vocal production to final mixing, mastering and vinyl press preparation.

In addition to my own projects, I’ve worked as a vocal producer and mixing engineer, including on Esther Veen’s EP Before I Go, where I handled recording, complex vocal layering, creative processing, production, multivocal arrangement and final mixing to deliver a polished, high-impact sound.

About the lessons:

My sessions are fully customised to your experience level, goals and grounded in real-world music production. Whether you’re just getting started or want to deepen your technical ability, you’ll learn how to develop professional workflows and the creative independence to finish what you start.

We can explore:

- Building advanced music production workflows and creative strategies
- Recording, Composition, arrangement, and storytelling through sound
- Full-stack mixing and mastering — from bedroom setups to pro-level delivery
- Synthesis and sampling — from sound shaping basics to high-level manipulation
- Multi vocal production, vocal recording, editing, layering, FX, and creative processing techniques
- Translating your music into a compelling live set with Ableton Live
- Applying music theory practically in electronic, cinematic, and contemporary music

Lessons are available online or in-person at my studio in Amsterdam. For online students, I use high-quality real-time tools that allow us to collaborate with full-resolution audio directly from your DAW — no screen sharing limitations, just real work in real time.

My own musical path often started by blending the sounds I encountered in the world, whether from distant rainforests or my own voice , into something personal and expressive.
I found my sound that way, and I’d love to help you find yours.

(And don’t worry — we won’t have to go to the ends of the earth to do it. I’ll show you how to turn the sounds you already have into something truly your own.)

Whether you're just starting out or ready to go deeper, I look forward to helping you grow through structured, creative, and technically grounded electronic music education.

My name is Shak. I am 21 years old and currently studying at the Conservatory of Amsterdam. I've been playing different instruments for as long as I can remember and I've mainly started to focus on bass guitar. I also play in several bands and I have a lot of experience with the instrument on stage or in the studio. I also know a lot about everything that has to do with theory, so I make a lesson plan that is completely tailored to what you want to do!
Lessons can take place at my home or at school. I can also come to you, but I ask for a small extra travel allowance (included in the price)

Hey! My name is Daan and I am a keyboard player, producer and songwriter and I am happy to teach piano at your home in Amsterdam.

I graduated from the Conservatory of Amsterdam pop department and am also very active in bands (as a keyboardist, singer, guitarist, bassist and drummer) and as a producer/songwriter in various genres.

As a teacher, I am mainly concerned with what the student wants to achieve and what can be gotten out of the student. Do you want to learn that one new song by Billie Eilish, or an advanced piece by Stevie Wonder; I can always help you. The great thing about music is that you can learn and perform it at all kinds of levels. My job is to find the right level for the right student, so that progress can be made at the same time as there is fun during the lessons.

In addition, I find it important that my students not only play the piano, but also understand the music and build up a knowledge of the music theory behind the pieces. This has helped me a lot to quickly make big steps as a musician.

You can also contact me if you write songs yourself and maybe even produce them that you want to take to a higher level. I can give you all kinds of tips to get the best out of your own compositions through my experience as a songwriter/producer.

I hope to see you soon!
