"Mixing with the Masters" (MWTM) is a highly respected educational platform (originally a series of video tutorials and now including in-person workshops) where professional audio engineers and producers deconstruct their workflows. The core philosophy is learning by observing (e.g., Chris Lord-Alge, Serban Ghenea, Andrew Scheps, Tony Maserati) as they work on actual, released multitracks from major artists.
Serban Ghenea, arguably the most successful pop mixer alive, famously mixes entirely in the box with insane headroom. Masters rarely clip converters. They pull everything down. Learning to mix with peaks at -18dBFS is a recurring theme in these sessions, allowing the analog emulation plug-ins to behave as they were physically designed to.
