Tony Berg - Five-Day Seminar in Paris
Join producer and A&R veteran Tony Berg for a five-day production seminar in Paris from November 23 to 27, 2026.
Tony produced Phoebe Bridgers' Stranger in the Alps and Punisher, records that defined a generation of American songwriting and earned four Grammy nominations. At Rue Boyer Studios, he will work through his process from song and arrangement to casting, tracking, and performance, and show how a record takes shape, decision by decision.
In addition to his work with Phoebe Bridgers, Tony has produced for boygenius, Fiona Apple, Andrew Bird, Aimee Mann, Michael Penn, Edie Brickell, the Replacements, Sarah McLachlan, Molly Tuttle, and sombr.
Over four decades he has moved between the studio and the label side, signing Beck, At the Drive-In, and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club as an A&R executive at Geffen, and mentoring a generation of producers and engineers including Shawn Everett, Blake Mills, and Ethan Gruska. He works today out of Sound City Studios in Van Nuys.
This is not a session about a single sound or genre. Over five days, Tony will focus on production as judgment: serving the song, choosing the right players and instruments, creating a room where performances happen, and knowing which take is the one. Designed for working producers, engineers, and artist-producers across all genres, the seminar shows how those decisions carry into any studio and any budget.
Location

The MWTM programme was launched in 2010 after the first ever week-long seminar was conducted at Studios La Fabrique in the South of France. At the time, it was intended to be a one-off event and the company did not exist. After the astonishing success and positive feedback following the debut seminar, MWTM was formed and further seminars were hosted featuring different guest speakers. To date, over one hundred and twenty seminars have taken place! Our events are now held at Rue Boyer Studios in Paris.
Aside from hosting an average of twelve week-long seminars per year, MWTM has also run a number of seminars and exclusive recording studio gatherings in the United States, typically coinciding with pro audio conventions by NAMM and AES. Our presence at these conventions has involved hundreds of live hour-long workshops given by A-list producers and engineers using a large-format console on stage!
In the United Kingdom, Mix with the Masters has conducted seminars in London, exhibited at conferences, and curated a number of special guest appearances at Abbey Road Studios for its 90th anniversary festival in 2021.
