Hello Composers! So besides composing i guess nowadays you also should learn how mix your own music by yourself. I would like to share with you some of my favourite You Tube Channels about Production, Mixing And Mastering, not all of them are for composers and not all of them about mixing trailer or orchestral music only, but anyway if you want to succeed in creating a good sound quality for your tracks you have to understand the difference between mixing real and virtual instruments.
And of course in the comments you can write your own favourite You Tube channels about mixing and mastering for composers to help each other here.
