Travis Ference is a Grammy-nominated mixing engineer and the host of Progressions, a podcast about finding success in the music industry. Travis is based out of LA, CA, USA! In our conversation Travis and I go deep on the following:

Fatherhood and time management
Soundflow, scripts, and other shortcuts
Is AI coming for mixing engineers?
Content creation and the surplus of noise on the internet
Travis’s approach to stem processing
Raising your rates
ROIs on a mix
Is technology helping us?
Investing in your health
Sidequests don’t help your mix
Selling yourself authentically
And so much more!
