Hey, my name is Sabelo September, I’m a Music Producer/Mixing Engineer based in South Africa and I’m here to help…

Compression: What comes to mind when hearing this word?

When most people hear about the use of compression, they get intimidated and it’s known to be a powerful but hard-to-understand tool. I myself have struggled with compression and the different types of compression styles made things worse. But… A lot changed when I chose to focus on the fundamentals of it and discovered a very simplified way of looking at it.

If you’ve been wanting to take your mixes to the next level and would like to benefit from the power of compression, this course is designed for you. Compression is one of the most important tools in mixing and I will give you a new way to look at compression, we will explore popular styles of compression and create practical examples on you can use them on your mixes.

I’ve been planning to develop this course for you, for some time as I think it will help a lot of producers, studio owners, and DIY artists.
