Take your tracks to the next level with one to one Production and Mixing lessons.
Great idea but dull demo?
Do you have a great concept idea or demo but don't know where to start to take it to a professional level? I can help. I have the musical arranging, production and mixing experience to help you work on each stage to achieve the depth, punch and clarity DIY demos often lack.
All the gear but no idea?
Maybe you're a great musician and have bought all the plugins, expensive preamps and watched a million different videos online but your mixes still sound weak and amateur? Fear not, I've been there, made all the mistakes and promise I can help you move towards the pro result you need to compete in the music industry today.
What can I learn?
I have 10 years professional experience as a session musician in London so can identify any musical issues in your track. I can advise and if needed play parts too. I can also show you how to use Balancing, EQ, Compression, FX, Layering and more through to mastering to create a professional finished mix.
10 years experience
My productions and mixes have been played on BBC1 Xtra and delivered to Gothic Storm for Warner Chappell Production Music. I'm a Grade A student of Geoff Baust at Berklee and former mixing and production tutor at The ICMP London. You can hear examples of my work on the testimonials page.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do remote production lessons work?
It’s simple. Feel free to contact me first to discuss or jump in and book a lesson and pay using the form. I’ll then get in touch ASAP to arrange a time.
What do I need?
All you need is a computer with a microphone, Zoom installed and a decent quality internet connection.
Can I send tracks in advance?
Yes. I recommend sending me the current demo of your track to me in advance so I can listen over and identify the issues. Sometimes I may even say ‘I can’t help you, you need to call David Pensado!’ but most of the time the problems are pretty clear.
Can you mix tracks for me remotely?
Although my main aim is to teach production techniques to you, if there’s anything you need help with beyond the scope of lessons we can discuss remote mixing in person.
