Mixing Assignments
Submit 2 Mixes for Assessment, Grading & Feedback
In order to assess the grading of your Diploma, you will be invited to submit two mixes for assessment. One mix of the student's choice and one mix where the stems will be provided by Aubrey. You will have around 6-8 weeks to submit these mixes once the live classes end in February 2027. This will account for 70% of your Diploma Award score (pass, merit or distinction).
You will also be invited to take an online examination which accounts for 30% of your award score. The exam is a timed, multiple-choice exam based on the lessons taught in the pre-recorded lessons and the live classes.
These assessments are not compulsory. If you are unable to submit the mixes or take the online exam, you will still be awarded a diploma PASS.

Nyssa Ray
“I'm so glad I signed up to do this course taught by UK producer power house Aubrey Whitfield. It was beyond valuable to learn new techniques and even re-learn some fundamentals I'd forgotten about mixing and mastering. I've been implementing her teaching into every project since taking the course and my clients couldn't be happier with quality of my productions. Thanks Aubrey”

"I have learnt more from Aubrey’s courses in the last 6 months than I have in 6 years and I can now actually visualise making a career in music production. You are provided with support and feedback whenever you need it from Aubrey and I never once felt silly when asking her a question. Aubrey has a knack for making all of her students feel incredibly comfortable no matter what your skill level. Aubrey’s courses have been a game-changer and I can’t wait to start my 4th one later on in the year.”

"I’ve taken several courses with Aubrey so far, and I’ve been growing so much as a producer as a result. She is so generous with her knowledge, expertise, and making her courses accessible, that it’s obvious she really wants everyone to grow and thrive in their music careers. She has a knack for clarifying complicated concepts and processes and making goals feel so much more achievable. I highly recommend Aubrey as a teacher and mentor!”

“I learnt things in producing and mixing that I never knew existed! I am so pleased I found Aubrey and her courses because I’m able to learn online with a really energetic and warm producer/teacher and my skills have sky rocketed. I have just bypassed years of learning in 6 weeks”
@apexxsongs
Steven Jackson
"I took Aubrey's Mixing and Mastering Course and it was outstanding! I learned a lot from the entire course but what stood out to me was how she took one of the most complex and misunderstood subjects of mixing (Compression) explained and demonstrated it in the most clear and concise way I have ever seen. She makes it all so clear. A true worthwhile course".
