"Laura's course was a turning point in my music, not only in my mixing but also in my composition. For the first time, I paid attention to details I'd never noticed before, improved my melodies and rhythmic patterns, and had fun!"

- Montse Torres

5-Star Rating

"I am absolutely thrilled with the mix! The drums are dynamic and vibrant. I love the new resonant kick, the updated snare with perfect reverb, and how you brought the hats out. The lead update adds a "dreamy" feel, while keeping it clear and wide. I also appreciate how you wrangled the side melodies to the perfect accompanying volume. There's a new sense of depth and the song is just so much more smooth. You are a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend your services! Thank you so much, Laura!"

“Laura is one of the most talented music producers I’ve ever met.” - Montse Torres

Meet Your Instructor

Laura Dre

Hi! I’m Laura Dre - synthpop artist, solo producer, and your mentor through this 14-day journey.

Back in 2003, I was writing songs on my guitar and recording them with whatever I could get my hands on. A year later, I picked up an iBook G4 and started exploring music production on Emagic (what we now call Logic Pro). I didn’t have fancy gear, and to be honest, I had no clue how to make my mixes sound “pro.”

Fast forward to 2016: I enrolled in a music production degree in London, where I studied for 3 years hoping it would unlock the secrets. Spoiler alert: it didn’t. Most of what I learned came from trial, error, and obsessive focus during sleepless nights of producing music on an outdated MacBook from 2011, a cheap audio interface, and a pair of M50X headphones. Sound familiar?


In 2019, I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts (First Class Honours) in Music Production, launched my solo project Laura Dre, and fell deep into the world of modern 80s synthpop. With just a 2017 iMac, a keyboard, an Apollo Twin, and sheer obsession, I produced my debut album Moving Spaces. That record landed me a vinyl release and a record deal, but here’s the twist...

Even with “success,” I was broke. I couldn’t afford to buy a single cup of coffee.

So I took matters into my own hands. I ran my own crowdfunding campaigns, sold directly on Bandcamp, launched merch on my site, and started earning real money from my music.

As of now, I’ve made over $75,000 as a truly independent artist, with under 2,000 Instagram followers and zero corporate backing.

And here’s what I’ve learned:


You don’t need a studio packed with gear.

You don’t need a degree or even know music theory.

You just need a step-by-step path that actually works and the belief that you can do this.

That’s why I created The 14-Day Mix Blueprint. It’s the course I wish I had: no fluff, no gatekeeping, just real mixing skills you can use to level up your music and make it sound like what’s in your head.

I’m not just an educator, I’m a working artist! And as one of the 2-3% of female producers in a male-dominated industry, I know what it’s like to carve your own path.

This course is your starting point.

You’ll begin with the music you’ve already created, even if it’s rough. From there, I’ll guide you step by step through developing the right artist mindset, crafting a mix that actually sounds good, and preparing it for release into the world.

And if you're serious about taking things further, you’ll have the option to go beyond, into advanced courses designed for artists who want to build a real career. That means: creating your artist brand, launching your own website, selling your music and merch, and even running successful crowdfunding campaigns to fund physical releases like vinyl, without needing to fork out $4000 - $8000 from your own pocket!

I’ve done it all myself, and I’ll show you how you can do it too when you're ready for it!

This is your launchpad to start your career as a true artist.

Let’s get started - I can’t wait to hear what you’ll create! :)

-Laura Dre

Who Is This Course For?

  • You want to learn how to make your music great-sounding, without wasting years trying to piece things together from random YouTube tutorials.

  • You value creative independence and want to be in full control of your music, mixes, and releases - even if you're starting with minimal gear.

  • This course is for DIY artists, bedroom producers, and passionate creators who want a clear, no-fluff path to mixing better and releasing their music with confidence.

What Types of Artists Join This Quest?

  • Aspiring indie musicians tired of muddy demos and ready to take mixing into their own hands

  • Producers who want to level up their mixing skills without going to school for it

  • Songwriters & solo artists who want their music to actually sound like what’s in their head

  • New artists ready to release their very first album or EP into the world

  • Creative misfits & genre-blenders who don’t fit the mainstream mold and like it that way

  • And anyone who wants to turn raw ideas into polished, great-sounding tracks

Who Is This Course NOT For?

  • You aren’t willing to follow a structured path and prefer to figure things out by trial and error.

  • You want someone else to mix your music for you, instead of learning how to do it yourself.

  • You think good music only comes from expensive gear, a big studio, or a record label.

  • You’re lazy, unmotivated, or waiting for someone to hand you a music career instead of building it yourself.

  • You believe you need a label to make things happen - this course is for artists who take action, not excuses.

  • You’re looking for advanced mastering, scoring for games/film, or engineering certifications - this is a foundational mixing course for modern music artists.

Frequently Asked Questions

What skill level is this program for?

The 14-Day Mix Blueprint is designed for beginners to intermediates, whether you're mixing your first demo or you've been making music for a while but still feel unsure about your mixes. You don’t need a degree, fancy gear, or perfect ears. If you're serious about making your music sound better and you're ready to follow a clear path, you’re in the right place.

How long do I have access to the program & when does it start?

Once you join, you’ll get lifetime access, including all future updates. The course is self-paced, so you can start whenever you’re ready and go at your own rhythm, whether that’s daily, weekly, or binge-style over a weekend.

Is the full course unlocked from the start?

Not just yet - think of it like a game in early access! You’ll get the first few levels (core videos) right away so you can dive in and start mixing. Then, each week, I’ll drop new content to keep your momentum going. Since this is the pre-launch, you’re getting in early, snagging a sweet deal, and helping shape the course as it evolves. Power-ups (aka new lessons) will be added weekly and you’ll get notified every time something new drops!

Can't I learn all of this on YouTube?

You can - but you’ll probably waste months or even years piecing together random tips that don’t connect. This Blueprint is different: it’s a structured, no-fluff path that actually builds your skills step-by-step, with clear results. No ads, no clickbait, just a plan that works.

What makes this different from courses on Udemy or Skillshare?

Most courses on those platforms are cheap for a reason. They usually offer short, disconnected modules that cover tiny parts of the bigger picture, often taught by different instructors with conflicting approaches. It’s like trying to solve a puzzle with pieces from different boxes.

The 30-Day Blueprint is a complete journey through the fundamentals of mixing, from start to finish!

You’re not piecing together random tips. You’re following a clear, structured path led by one real-world artist (that’s me!) who’s done it all independently.

This course connects everything into one system, from mindset to workflow to mixing techniques, so by the end, you’re not just learning:

You’re actually finishing songs that sound great.

How is this different from other mixing courses?

Most mixing courses either drag on forever, dump you into dry lectures, or assume you already know what you’re doing.

The Audio Arcade was built specifically for beginners, synth artists, and bedroom producers who want to mix smarter - not harder.

Instead of generic tutorials or endless subscriptions, you get a clear 14-day blueprint, fun gamified progress, and a system that actually shows you how to go from muddy demo to release-ready mix - fast.

Spoiler: You won’t find any mix bros, outdated DAWs, or $297 price tags here.

What if I get stuck on something during the course?

No worries - you’ll have access to the private student community where you can ask questions anytime. Whether it’s a tech issue, mix decision, or just needing a second pair of ears, either I or another student will jump in to help. You’re not doing this alone.

Do I need to have fancy gear / expensive plugins / a treated studio before starting?

Nope. All you need is a basic DAW (like Logic, Ableton, FL Studio, etc.), a pair of headphones or speakers, and the willingness to learn. The course was created using real-world examples with minimal gear, so you can make your music sound great, even from a bedroom setup.

Should I invest in The 14-Day Mix Blueprint before investing in gear / mastering / vinyl / a website?

Yes, because your mix is the foundation. Great mastering, gear, or vinyl won't fix a weak mix. Once you know how to craft a strong mix on your own, everything else becomes more effective (and affordable). This is the best investment you can make to actually sound like the artist you want to be.

What if I don’t finish in 14 days?

No worries! The “14-day” structure gives you a focused path, but you can move at your own pace. Whether you take 14 days or 14 weeks, you’ll still build the same skills. No pressure, no expiry dates.

Will this work for my genre?

Yes! The Blueprint teaches fundamentals that apply to all genres - from synthpop to singer-songwriter, indie, rock to lo-fi, hip hop etc. If you’re an artist making music in a DAW and want your tracks to sound clearer, fuller, and more intentional, this course will help you get there.

Does this course cover automation and advanced mixing techniques?

The 14-Day Mix Blueprint is a foundational course designed to help you build strong habits and core skills, like EQ, compression, gain staging, and workflow. It’s perfect for beginners or those wanting to reset their mixing approach.

If you’re looking for advanced techniques like automation, pitch/time correction, vocal shaping, mastering, and detailed FX chains, you’ll love my upcoming Pro-Level Mixing Course, launching in 2026! It’s designed as the next step after completing this blueprint - more comprehensive, more detailed, and focused on getting your mixes release-ready at a professional standard.
