    Absolutely exceptional.

    5.0

    This is the audio course I was looking for, while it doesn’t cover my DAW (Adobe Audition) the fundamental principles all translate over, and I learned a huge amount by following along and finding my way to do the same things.
    This course took me several days to complete because of just how much there is to learn and expand here: I took 10 pages of A4 notes in a Google Docs doc from this, and they are going to absolutely invaluable to me going forwards.
    Already the audio tracks I’ve produced while following this course sound 10x better than what I was making before.

    100% recommend to everyone!

    I’ve had to work on a lot of Audio and while some of this information came as a welcomed refresher, much of it was very new and eye opening. My usage of gating and EQ definitely looks sloppy by comparison. Thanks!

    I haven’t completed the course yet but I’ve been very impressed. There’s a lot of good information here (be sure to take notes). I appreciate his teaching style and that he breaks everything down, then shows you how to put it all together.

    An absolute must for voice over artists!

    After learning what I have from this course and applying it to my latest auditions, I’m embarrassed when I hear my older ones now! The difference is night and day. Everything Rob taught in this course helped really provide the whole picture. Trying to see the whole picture from piecemeal searches and video from the internet just don’t provide the comprehensive picture that Rob provides. I can’t recommend this class enough! Thanks Rob! Great course!
