Hello to all! First Ι did a rough mix. That gets me to know the song better, to understand the parts, and to give me a feeling of how the elements of the song should sound to my ears. Then I get into the processing, I used a lot of compression some instruments mild some others hard, a lot of EQing b...

Hi! I did a rough mix first to get to know the song better and understand the parts. For get the distorted sound of the DI guitars I didn’t use guitar amps but tube Compressors which I cranked them I used a lot of compressors for the other tracks and compress a lot, also a lot of EQing but minimal R...

Hi! I always do a rough mix first to get to know the song better, understand the parts, and get the feeling of how the elements. I liked the guitars so I didn’t make any reamping. Then I get into the processing of stuff. Just EQs, Compressosr and FX. I dint use any gate this time because of programm...

Hi to all ! Although I found the released mix absolutely fine, I liked the song and the style so I decided to give it a try. As always first I did a rough mix to figure out what was happening with the tracks, and to figure out what path I’d follow for my mix. I did not use the DI tracks for Gtrs and...

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC088 October 2022 - Mix Round 2 until until 04-NOV-2022 23:59 UTC+1/CET
Hi @EatMe thanks for the feedback and for choosing my mix for round 2. I’ve brought up the level of the open hihat, for sure its sounds better now to me with fresher ears this time, worked on the snare to be present all the time and put some reverb on it. About the latest kick drum I’ve brought down...

Hi ! Instantly from the first listen of the provided mix I noticed that I could not hear some instruments so I decide to make a mix that I could hear all the instruments despite the correct vibe that this genre has to have (loud cymbals etc..) First I did a rough mix. I did not use the dry tracks. T...

Hi ! My perception for this recording when I listened the individual tracks through my rough mix, was to have a 4-piece rock band that doesn’t need anything more. The overdubs should add just a little “salt”, not playing an important role. So I’ve mixed that track with that perception in my mind. I ...

Hi to all! I always do a rough mix first to get to know the song better, understand the parts, and get the feeling of how the elements. Then I get into the processing of stuff. I don’t use a lot of plugins and do sound-engineering secrets and methods. Just an EQ, Compressor and Big Reverbs for this ...

Hi! Wow..this was difficult for me, I had to use some different methods. I spent a lot of time for the rough mix which I always do first. When I got the feeling of the song (from my perspective) I started thinking how could I do this with limited plugin dap usage. It was only possible with group man...

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC081 October 2021 - Mix Round 2 until 16-NOV-2021 23:59 UTC+1/CET
Hi ! After I listen it again yes I think too that my first mix was muddy. So I did some changes to the EQs of the instruments. I didn’t just put an EQ to the master channel and bring the highs, I wanted to be a better mix with more clarity of the instruments with the same dark sound. Link: https://w...
