Life-Changing Results That Audio Colleges Fail to Deliver:

Have learned more in 1 week than I've learned over 2 years of college courses

Thank you for making such an awesome course available for aspiring professional producers and engineers! Already learned so many things that will improve my work on a big scale! Similar to other aspiring producers around the world, I turned to college training instead of mentor training first, and have since been through 3 audio engineering courses that did an alright job at teaching the basics, but barely taught how to use simple compression or EQ techniques in any context...worst part is, I spent 1/3 of the cost of those courses on your online course and have learned more in 1 week than I've learned in over 2 years of those college courses. So it's safe to say, YOU are a real pro and teach far more in far less time! Thank you for providing the amount of learning value that you do. I among many other members and producers are forever grateful!

My only regret is that I didn't do so sooner!

The knowledge shared in these videos has saved me years of trial and error, and I thank God that it costs less than going back to college to learn all of these techniques. Jordan has constructed a truly fantastic program, and I know I'm going to be going back and referencing these videos for many years to come.

Not only that, but access to the HCMS coaching calls and the community of like minded producers/mix engineers is absolutely invaluable. The support and guidance of both the HCMS team and the HCMS community, has multiplied my confidence and efficiency several times over.

I already see a big difference in my mixes.

To be honest all my mixes sucked and I kinda lost the motivation to do this. However, I decided to join PPS and committed to learn (or re-learn) everything I knew about mixing and bring my skills to the next level. I never had a full picture and good workflow before. Now I feel much more confident, much more free from the obsession of focusing on small problems and overthinking things, and I already see a big difference in my mixes.

"I'm a full-time college student studying Audio Production… Even though I felt like I had some innate talent in a good ear, I wasn't able to get anything to sound how I wanted and this is because I didn't know the tools and how to get where I wanted.

I went for it, signed up, And suddenly, something clicked. You gave me the keys, and it happened. I went from complete amateur, and now I feel I could dare to call myself semi-pro. For the first time I can COMPARE my mix TO A PRO and say, "yeah I could mix for those labels and bands.”

Wouldn't be where I am today.

It was a struggle at first paying the rent and all the bills associated with the studio. After purchasing Jordan’s training last year it has helped me open doors and achieve goals that I thought weren’t possible for me. Jordan explained how to capture specific instruments in complete detail. I can tell you that without Jordan and his courses I wouldn’t be where I am today. I have many clients that I am working with not only in Metal/Hardcore, but in EDM, EDC, POP, HipHop Hard Rock and recently gospel/Jazz Band. I owe it all to Jordan and Hardcore Music Studio.

I have turned out the best mixes of my career since taking this course.

My clients have been thrilled, and I've upped my skill set in a huge way. I only wish this course had been available back when I first started some 22 years ago. Best investment ever.

"What I can do now is seriously shocking..."

Going back from what I was doing a couple of months ago to what I can do now is seriously shocking to me and very exciting at the same time. The passion that I felt for mixing back in 2011 is all coming back now and I really want to go forward with this as a career. I have so much more confidence now than I did even a few months ago.

I feel like I should be giving you more money for the course than what I paid! You've not only allowed me to dramatically improve my mixing but you've also given me the tools to become motivated again, something I desperately needed.

I started using your methods and things sounded immediately better. Word spread, and now I have triple the clients and people coming from all over, from all backgrounds (yesterday i was confidently tracking a live folk session). Your courses have given me the confidence to trust my instincts, but also know my worth. I get good results quickly, and people love it.

Mind blowing!

Made a huge impact on my work/workflow! The pieces are getting together big time and I can finally hear a lot better what sounds wrong or right! The template system you showed us works like ‘holy s#$*’, like when I bring the template in the songs seem to be mixed 50-60% already in a few minutes! Mind blowing! Thanks for your work and massive help!

The whole story, with every detail.

One-stop shopping with this guy. He is the only online recording/mixing coach that I have found who gives the whole story, with every detail and who speaks with such certainty, that you know he knows what he's talking about and with a pedigree to back it up.
