About the Business
Peter Carter is owner and Chief Mixing Engineer at Tweak Music. In his own words he says “I can relate to any kind of music from classical through to gabber techno, I love it all”.
Peter is based out of his city centre studio in Manchester, United Kingdom and has been a full-time Mixing Engineer and Producer for the last 7 years and uses a superb mix of analogue and digital equipment.
He first got into music when he was 7 years old, listening to Michael Jackson and The Prodigy and would often pretend he was DJ’ing on the CD cases whilst breaking down the elements of the songs in his head. At age 16 he started picked up a pair of Technics turntables and started spinning and collecting vinyl. Fast forward 8 months and he was doing his first gig in an over 18′s, 1000 capacity venue.
He moved out of home at 16 and went on to study Music Technology in Nottingham’s Prestigious Confetti Studios whilst DJ’ing at events around the country. Whilst learning his craft he would often help friends in bands to record and mix their songs and would add in some of his signature electronic sound. At age 21 he hooked up with Cian Ciaran from the band Super Furry Animals and started working in their Cardiff based studio on everything from audio for film to producing techno and running record labels whilst playing at the band’s after-shows .
Peter has mixed well over 1,000 songs in every genre imaginable and is working with music every day. The artists he has mixed for have gone on to get record deals, gigs and he regularly works for the company who create the music for the biggest Hollywood Blockbusters.

Online Mixing
Online mixing is the process by which all separate parts of a song (drums, bass, vocals, synths etc) are individually balanced, panned, EQ'd, have effects (i.e. reverb, delay) and dynamics such as compression applied to them. The main issues that arise without professional mixing are:
- Unbalanced – levels are inconsistent due to lack of proper listening environment.
- Lack of clarity and instruments overlapping each other due to lack of proper positioning in the mix.
- Vocals are hard to distinguish.
- Improper use of FX.
The difference between amateur and professional mixing can be ASTONISHING and turns a great piece of music into a SERIOUSLY great piece of music.
