See what's in the courseHave you ever struggled with getting the professional quality mix that you want?
Whether you’re a Musician, Singer-Songwriter, Sound Engineer, or Producer...
How many times have you played a mix of your song for someone knowing that it wasn’t as good as it should be?
- You’re embarrassed because you know the vocals are muddy and hard to understand.
- You can’t hear any separation between the instruments.
- The balance is all wrong, there's no definition or impact, and the instruments feel far away and lost in the mix.
But even after spending hours mixing, you just seem to be making it worse not better.
Isn't it frustrating when you have a great song but you can’t enjoy it because the mix makes you cringe?
How annoying is it to step off stage knowing you just gave an incredible performance, only to have your friends and family complain that they couldn’t hear you clearly?
And how many times have you suffered through a show full of feedback and not been able to hear yourself on stage?
What makes this especially aggravating is that there is a simple solution to all of these problems...
EQ
Many people make the mistake of trying to use plug-ins and compression to fix or enhance their mix... when some simple EQ is actually what's needed.
In fact minor EQ adjustments can result in BIG improvements.
But EQ can be intimidating. What kind of EQ do you use and what are you supposed to do with it?
Properly applied EQ is what separates a professional mix from an amateur one.
When you understand EQ, the world of mixing will open up for you. You'll be shocked at how uncomplicated it really is.
Hi, I'm Michelle and for the past 30 years I've been the Sound Engineer for some of the most recognizable names in music...
I've mixed thousands of shows all over the world, in every size and shape of venue. I've done all major festivals from Coachella to Download and TV from The Grammy's to SNL. I've even been inducted into the Full Sail University Hall of Fame. I've been mixing for so long it's like breathing to me.
But I know mixing can be frustrating and overwhelming for many people and that's why I created LISTEN! My process simplifies EQ and is the quickest way to improve your mixing skills.
All of the tips, tricks, and techniques you'll find in LISTEN! are the very same ones I've been using throughout my professional career mixing artists like:
Gwen Stefani
Melissa Etheridge
Elvis Costello
Adam Lambert
Goo Goo Dolls
Janet Jackson
and many more...
I've created a process that simplifies EQ and is the quickest way to improve your music mixing skills.

Here's what a few artists have said about working with Michelle...
TOMMY SHAW- STYX
Guitarist and Vocalist
When I know Michelle's gonna be there... Whatever shape or size the room is, the drums are booming, the bass is nice and fat and round, the vocals are crisp and right out there where they need to be, the solos are loud. It's a fun thing to listen to and it's what we want for our fans...
BILLY SHEEHAN-Mr Big, Winery Dogs, Sons of Apollo
Bass Player
Michelle has been Front of House mixer for every show of Mr Big since 2009. We never use pre-recorded tracks, so a high level of expertise on vocals is essential— one of her specialties. Her masterful treatment of guitar, bass, and drums, and anything else we’ve ever had to deal with is spectacular.
INDIGO GIRLS-
AMY RAY & EMILY SAILERS
We have so much regard for Michelle and worked with her for many years. She’s a great sound engineer, just so creative. She would always have advice about what sounded better, this or that as far as instruments go. I always relied on her a lot as a sound engineer.
Imagine having the ability to identify and address mix issues effortlessly, creating professional-quality mixes that showcase your musical brilliance.
You may have been told...
that you need this plug-in bundle AND parallel compression AND expensive outboard gear to get a professional sounding mix.
You've been misled.
It’s not the gear that creates a great mix... All of that expensive gear won't fix a bad mix.
A great mix at its most basic parts is a collection of great sounds and the basis of all sounds are the frequencies they are made of. Understanding those frequencies and how to manipulate them to work for you is the foundation of great sound.
The simplest way to manipulate frequencies is by using EQ.
Understanding EQ and Frequencies will Unlock Your Mixing Potential!

How much of a relief would it be to be able to easily CREATE the PROFESSIONAL QUALITY MIXES YOU WANT instead of paying someone else to fix your mix and still not getting the results you desire?

How satisfying would it feel to finally be able to listen to your finished mix, hold your head high and say ‘I did that!’.
What is that worth to you?
Would you pay $1000, $3000, $5000? More?
Isn’t your music worth it? Aren’t you worth it?
Of course you are.
But I know, that’s a lot of money for some people.
You may have more money than you know what to do with or you may be struggling with the decision to buy that next guitar or get your car repaired…

What people are saying about LISTEN!
Glenn Allen
“You should be charging 10X’s the price of this course, because that’s what I paid at Berklee, and the critical listening and mixing lessons are so much better in LISTEN!.
We used to listen to sine waves and pink noise, and none of that translated when I was trying to clean up my cymbals or get my guitars to stand out in my recordings and live shows. Your lesson showing how to use notes on my guitar or another instrument to identify frequencies is GENIUS.”
Bill Talley
"If you want to learn how to mix sound you can not go wrong with this course. Michelle's teaching style allows you to hear and see what is happening instead of trying to visualize what a book is trying to convey. I have dozens of books, but none cover it in such an easy to understand way as this course does. Money well spent. Thank you Michelle!"
GL Moses
"Just like the acronym H.I.T. this course really does show you how to simply establish the foundation to approach frequencies no matter your level of experience. Learn to trust your ears and have fun doing it! After completing LISTEN! I now can better understand how to do this for not only recording but also live to create a better mix and thus listening experience."
Andre Jarreau
"LISTEN! is awesome. I’m a lifelong musician and have never heard music like I hear it now. Now I can mix much better, but more importantly I can talk to producers about the sound I am looking for. This is increasing my network connections so important to my music career."
Scott Carr
"Michelle is on her "A Game" when it comes to EQ! I had never really had anyone explain EQ to me in such a detailed, informative, and educational manner; not even in the ballpark as to how she has done it. I really appreciate the listening exercises and the 3-part sectioning layout of the course. I totally recommend her course to anyone who is serious about mixing and who is willing to put in the work!"
Jedidia Chilijila
"Before enrolling in LISTEN!...I struggled with how to identify frequencies and listen correctly. I didn't realize what I was doing wrong. Now I can now use EQ with confidence. I've spent a lot of money for other online learning things that didn't help me to shape my mix until I enrolled LISTEN!"
Simon J Boniface
"The course offered absolutely brilliant advice and time to practice. It gave musical examples and time to listen objectively to different styles of music. I particularly liked the charts which can help pin point an eq area which may need adjustment. It has helped me to become less scientific and more about listening when it comes to eq."
