Mixing Engineers are often formally trained in a music background, and most get a degree in audio engineering or recording engineering*. A degree in music can help and broaden the engineers credentials, though it is known that most experience comes from operating complex audio equipment. The mixing ear comes from years of observing all kinds of sounds, frequencies, and variations of effects and filters, through the process of trial and error.
