This roadmap shows you exactly how to use this class so you get results without overwhelm. Follow it in order. 🎯 WEEK 1 — LISTENING & BALANCE Focus: Hearing before fixing - Read the pinned lessons - Lower your monitors or headphones - Balance your mix using faders only - Check your mix on a phone or small speaker 🎧 Goal: You can clearly hear what’s too loud or too quiet. 🎯 WEEK 2 — MIDRANGE & CLARITY Focus: Translation - Check your mix in mono - Listen for what disappears on small speakers - Make small, intentional adjustments - Submit one song to the Weekly Feedback Thread 🎧 Goal: Your mix holds together on limited systems. 🎯 WEEK 3 — LOW END & CONTROL Focus: Foundation - Decide what drives the low end (kick or bass) - Lower low-end elements before shaping - Test in the car or headphones - Apply feedback from your submission 🎧 Goal: Low end supports the song instead of dominating it. 🎯 WEEK 4 — DECISIONS & CONFIDENCE Focus: Repeatability - Stop chasing “perfect” - Commit to decisions - Listen across systems - Submit an updated mix only if needed 🎧 Goal: You trust your ears more than your plugins. 🧠 HOW TO GET THE MOST VALUE - Apply one idea at a time - Ask specific questions - Re-listen before re-posting - Learn from others’ submissions Consistency beats intensity. 📌 FINAL REMINDER This class isn’t about speed. It’s about understanding. If your mix translates on a small speaker, you’re doing it right. — SUPERKev
