Mike Indovina is a mixing and mastering engineer based out of Toronto, On, Canada, and the owner of MasterYourMix.com! In our chat, Mike shares his story; from playing in bands to doing the studio thing to writing a book on mixing! We chat about finding a process that works for you and sticking with it, mixing templates, how he's able to master his own mixes, and working in the box. We also talk about what mastering adds to the mix, monitoring, getting great drum sounds, podcasting, building relationships with people, and so much more! Check it out!
