Frequently Asked Questions
| How does the application process work?
What if I'm interested in attending the masterclass in-person? Join us in Las Vegas and hear exactly what Luca hears. Apply for a seat from Studio DMI. What's the start and end time? Each day kicks off at 1pm EST (10am PST) and should be done by 5pm EST (3pm PST). Can I get the stems to practice with? Absolutely! You'll get a link to download the stems immediately following the masterclass What gear will he be using? The focus is always on the techniques and thought process behind every mix decision but for those who are curious, Luca will be working primarily in the box using Presonus Studio One and a wide array of plugins. For mastering he will use and explain his analog chain and why it's essential to his current process but also demonstrate how to master in-the-box. What plugins will Luca be using? He'll be using a variety of plugins from Waves, UAD, Fabfilter, Izotope, Slate, etc. Keep in mind it's not about the settings, it's about the theory and techniques he uses that matter most. | What if I can't make all 3 days? You'll be able to access the replay until December 5th to catch up on everything you missed. What sort of feedback will I receive on my mix? Luca will listen 1 song from every student and share his honest opinions and feedback. He'll point out both the good and the bad then offer you tips and tricks that can improve the mix and all of your mixes in the future. How long will I have access to the live stream replay? This masterclass is LIVE. Being able to participate during the sessions, asking questions and giving feedback is half the value of these workshops.

What happens if the streaming fails for some reason or the internet goes out?
