Enter the world of mixing and mastering for film, TV, and video games. Learn tips and tricks to make your compositions stand out from the crowd.

Patrick Sasso is the Chief Creative Officer and Co-Founder of Loop Seven, the corporate embodiment of a lifetime passion for music and the visual arts. Sasso grew up in the Canadian border town of Windsor which gave him the opportunity to nourish his musical lexicon with Motown, fusion jazz, soul, and blues influences. Before the age of 20, Sasso had already a deep experience with music recording and mixing, film composing and jazz standards arrangements. Sasso composes, mixes, and edits short and long-form videos and social media at his studio in Brooklyn, NY.

Joachim Svare is an Emmy-winning music producer, mixer, and songwriter from Denmark. He started his career as a bass player in Copenhagen, playing on records, TV Shows, and concert tours. He moved to Los Angeles and started writing and producing music in a wide variety of genres for various recording artists.

In addition, he has provided music for commercials, and video games, and has written and produced thousands of music and vocal loops for Apple Computers.
