Building a Mix
The before-and-after preview: hear the raw, unmixed audio Brian started with and where the mix ends up — the destination for all of Module 3.
Duration · 2:04
Module 3 is where it all comes together: Brian builds an entire mix from scratch, talking through every decision as he goes, so you can do the same at your church.
Before the work begins, this lesson plays an A/B — first the raw audio exactly as Brian received it (the “A”), then the finished mix (the “B”). Listen to the gap between them. Everything in the deep-dive module — gain, EQ, compression, effects — is what closes that gap, and the next lessons walk you through it channel by channel.
Application
- Listen to the A and the B back to back. Write down three specific differences you hear (clarity, punch, space, vocal presence).
- Keep that “B” sound in your head as the target while you work through the rest of this module.
