Join us for “Demystifying Mastering,” an evening event presented by SonicScoop and Flux Studios on Friday, May 11 – for engineers, producers, musicians and mastering engineers who want to gain a deeper understanding of the mastering process, and hear modern tools and techniques in a studio environment.
The event will run from 6PM-9PM and will feature a clinic led by top NYC mastering engineer Dave Kutch (The Roots, Alicia Keys, John Legend), listening stations for demoing gear by Dangerous Music, Manley and Focal Professional, and a fun Friday night mixer with drinks/snacks.
Kutch’s clinic (7-8PM) will be a Q&A-driven discussion and demonstration of:
- Best engineering practices leading up to mastering
- Best production practices to optimize your mastering experience-
- How to break bad habits that limit what can be accomplished in mastering
- Tools and tips for sonic problem solving
- Effective mastering chains and techniques
Before, during and after the clinic – throughout the rest of Flux – Dangerous Music will have stations setup where you can demo the Dangerous Master, Monitor, Liaison and Bax EQ; Manley will be on hand with their Pultec EQ, Mastering SLAM! and Mastering Massive Passive; and Focal will be showing – for the first time in NYC – their new SM9 monitoring speakers, which are now available.
