I first heard about this program from an advertisement on youtube. I liked what I heard but I am generally skeptical of targeted ads. About a year later I had done more research into this program as well as other programs and decided to go with TRE. They had just started a program for beginners called Music Production 101. It taught all the basics from start to finish (production, mixing, & mastering). Our final project was to start and complete an original song applying what we learned. After completing this program there was no doubt in my mind that I needed to sign up for the full-blown TRE program to truly hone-in my skills. I have been in the program for about a year now and am halfway through. I have a decent amount of other things going on in my life so the work at my own pace structure has helped me. The price is also a plus. It is substantially cheaper than an official degree but I feel like I am learning the same things. If anything it cuts out the noise of a full blown school because I am learning the straightforward skills without a lot of extra filler. If you are looking for a program to learn how to do everything you need to write, mix, and master your music at a very affordable price, this is for you.
I have been in the TRE program of Mastering.com for just over a year and do not regret my investment in myself one bit. I went from a lot of guessing and attempting to implement tips from YouTube to following a structured, sensible approach to learning how to get professional sounding results.The community supports each other and the mentors and mentor review calls are all fantastic as well!
I have been part of the TRE program for just over a year. It is by far the best investment I have made in furthering my aspirations in the music industry. Before you invest in more plugins, more “quick fix” programs or watch hours of videos on YouTube promising easy steps to success, check out mastering.com.
The mentors and management team are focused on providing the best online course material and learning experience available anywhere. Material has been added and updated on multiple occasions during the course of my year in the program. This was done to clarify or improve lesson material in response to students questions or confusion in the forums and mentor calls. Speaking of mentor calls, the weekly call schedule has also been updated and refined multiple times in response to student needs and suggestions. The mastering.com team has even revised the programs that are available to the net benefit of the existing members.The constant attention to what the community needs and the integrity, willingness, and commitment to look for ways to improve the value that is delivered makes this a truly peerless program.But then there's the community of peers - I joined a couple of other programs before TRE, but the combination of excellent mentoring skills and their engagement with the members leverages the value of a community of like-minded people. This is truly a value-add and is an unexpected benefit I've gotten out of being in the program. In recognition of the value the community brings to the program, the leadership team even took on the work of coordinating and scheduling multiple, live, in-person events. I was able to participate in the first live event (for an additional cost) and it was the experience of a lifetime for someone who would have never had access to famous studios and recording engineers. And meeting the mentors and community peers at this event cemented my love and appreciation for this program.Okay, I'm gushing, but I'm being honest - this program has been INCREDIBLE and I'm so glad I chose to invest in myself here.
TRE has gotten me out of the YouTube rabbit hole, completely changed my mindset on so many levels for so many things when it comes to engineering, and provided consistent mentorship from real industry professionals to help fill in the gaps. Truly the program to be in for music lovers who want to become an audio engineer!
I have learned so much from these wonderful, talented people. As someone with little experience or knowledge about the music industry and the various steps to professionally making music (i.e., mastering, mixing, and producing), I can already tell this is an amazing start. I'm a year in, and it has been rewarding throughout.Beyond the knowledge and wealth of tools in the course, the mentors truly care. They have crafted a welcoming, supportive community that wants to see you succeed. Continuously adapting and upgrading to the needs of the students AND the music industry standards, T.R.E. has been the perfect grounding for my personal growth as a musician and aspiring professional.I cannot recommend them enough. Yes, it is an investment, but it is up to you to make that worthwhile. It's go-at-your-own-pace, and you have help every step of the way. If you're on the fence about this, trust me, you want in!
Before I had even heard of Mastering.com, I was a musician, primarily a drummer, and also a basic/intermediate keyboard player. I always had an interest in recording, and some early midi sequencing experience. I played in several bands over the years and had a habit of recording rehearsals. At some point I purchased a Zoom H4 field recorder, which allowed for a better quality of recording. It also contained a Limited edition of Cubase 4.0 which I began to use to augment my salvaging of the band rehearsals. As time went by my proficiency increased, until I began using Full Pro-level Versions of Cubase, upgraded my PC and Interface, to pro-levels. This also took me to the next phase of self-education; Books, online videos, tips, tricks, mixed with a great deal of trial and error on my part. About this time I was starting to record bands live in my loft space. I quickly discovered how a mix that seemed to sound good in the studio sounded absolutely horrible when played back in a car. It was hard to even perceive bass in the studio, but in the car all I could really hear was bass ! I was stuck in a major way.While this was unfolding, I began to receive ads from Mastering.com and learned of their educational approach. Their TRE (The Reverse Engineer) program seemed a good fit. I knew this type of instruction would fill the gaps in my self-taught approach. The fact that the mentors were very accessible was a major point. Once I began TRE, I found myself in a mastering course of all things, which fortunately for me began with a course called "Acoustic Truth". A few unexpected weeks there with a great mentor, actually guided me into a place where I learned more than I ever expected about room acoustics, panels, measurement techniques, & room correction. They even provided another option, based on headphones, that allowed me to be able to switch between corrected headphones, and my monitors as desired. This way I could continue with incrementally improving my room, but still move forward with headphones for my continuing education. And the issues with mixes...? GONE!
