## Overview

Metal is one of the most challenging genres to mix—it’s difficult to produce a clean, modern song that feels authentic and doesn’t sound over-produced. Eyal Levi’s Mastering Metal Mixing is your guide to creating mixes that sound polished – but not fake.

This class series will set you up with the skills you need to prepare a track, balance essential song elements, and fine-tune problem areas. Eyal has worked with some of the most important metal bands playing today including Job for a Cowboy, August Burns Red, The Black Dahlia Murder, Carnifex and Whitechapel. He'll also be joined by special guests:

- Joey Sturgis (Asking Alexandria, Of Mice & Men, I See Stars)
- Andrew Wade (A Day To Remember, Neck Deep, The Ghost Inside)
- Josh Newell (Avril Lavigne, Linkin Park, In This Moment)
