The best chance of having a great mix , starts with the recording. Not only should the instrument be recorded properly , but it should be played intentionally. Played with passion and purpose , passion for the instrument , and purpose for the song.
Happy Day !
Happy day y’all !!
Gm ya filthy animals
Workin on a couple projects .. and for some reason Cole and Doom keep coming back as fantastic references ..
Fixing your monitor setup can be one of the most reliable ways to get better mixes .. besides 10000 hours of experience. Ik multimedia arc studio is a fantastic option , once tuning and treatment are taken care of ..
Balance when mixing is absolutely crucial .. but balance doesn’t matter too much without the vision for the song !!
Happy day !
Recently I’ve been stripping back my mixes , and I encourage you to do the same .. less is really more.. next mix pick 1 verb 1 delay 1 eq 1 compressor 1 channel strip and a limiter .. I bet you’d like the results ! 🙏🙏
Something about freshly ground coffee in the morning . GM
Sometimes to really aide in adding depth to you mix , while maintaining good phase relationships , use left/right equalization versus mid/side.
Happy Day !
Been gettin dangerous … thanks to the homie for the hookup and thanks to Universal Audio for a flawless setup !
Happy Day !
Is over compression hurting your mixes or productions ?! Try clip gaining first before any eq or compression . Get that balance right first , then you’ll have a much better idea of the problems that your source is giving.
Happy Day !
My favorite part of actually mixing , has to be the moment something works , when you’ve been messing with it for what seems like days…
Happy Day !
Im all for natural growth .. but new phone who disssss
Spent years chasing “perfect” mixes, tweaking for hours. Realized less is more: one good reverb bus, minimal EQ. My tracks hit harder now. Stop overthinking – trust your ears.
Think of EQ more like a volume fader , is the source to tubby , turn down the low mids , to brittle turn down the highs . Think, low , mid high.
Yall doing any development , coding , or vibe coding ?!
Record vocals at home ???
Try not to use a template with many plugins and tons of processing. At most use a tuner, EQ with small moves, and a compressor. Maybe using some verb or delay sends, even though at this rate inserts on track with low wet to dry ratio might suffice.
Get dry vocals ( no processing ) right , then the end result gonna be better !
To me, theoretically the job of a mixing engineer, is to enhance the art and emotion presented by the artist and producer.
Happy Day !
No mixing post today .. what y’all on ?! New projects ? Athletic training ? Taco Tuesday ?
