Your choice
Choose whether Main Act measures product use.
Optional feature-use analytics starts only if you allow it. Signed-in events can include your account ID; training answers and selected audio files are excluded. Essential diagnostics may still protect reliability and security.
Hear the mix before you touch a control.
Start with a free A/B ear check. See which frequency regions you miss, then train EQ, compression, balance, space, masking, and reference judgement with short adaptive reps.

Live Sound
Practice show-day decisions before the room depends on you.
Lighting
Design and call stage lighting that moves with the music.
Also sing or write? The Everything plan adds the Artist system: Vocals, Songwriting, and Repertoire, on the same account and the same belt path.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need expensive gear?
No. All drills work with any headphones. Studio monitors help but aren't required.
I'm a beginner. Is this for me?
Yes. Start at white belt with fundamental exercises. The system adapts to your level.
How is this different from YouTube tutorials?
Active training vs passive watching. You practice identifying frequencies, matching compression settings, and making mix decisions, not just watching someone else do it.
Studio Mix or Live Sound?
Pick either, or both. They share the same belt system but focus on different skills.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes, cancel through your account. Keep access through your billing period.
What does my subscription include?
Studio Mix is part of the Studio system, alongside Live Sound and Lighting. The Studio plan unlocks all three. The Everything plan adds the Artist system on top: Vocals, Songwriting, and Repertoire, for six schools on one account and one belt path.
