https://1drv.ms/u/s!Al0k-deoMtpH5DjHWNCgWD25If4A?e=F2yCg6 Fun piece. Challenging. I struggled to get any definition with the strings , with all the bleed everywhere .. but I tried to find their happy frequencies and cut/boost accordingly. I choose all my panning based on the video and just L C R . V...

Tried to be sure the kick and the snare and the low end were the primary emphasis of the mix. I have nothing on my master bus except an L1 limiter just to take down the peaks. Main interest in this was to use Neutron 4 and have the AI decide. All the drum tracks are sent to a drum bus, the tracks th...

Super Fun. No idea what I was/am doing in this genre. So I looked up dub delay and gave it a go. I took the 4 tracks named by the producer and sent each to it own aux . Put a delay ,( used H-delay on 2, ) to a automated EQ sweep, to an L1 limiter then side loop to itself to get that feedback control...

https://1drv.ms/u/s!Al0k-deoMtpH4n6FeedsgCSpRPA5?e=6Qcq2P Wonderful piece. I will highlite the three aspects I concentrated on. The Intro, The coda And the feel.

I could not use any pitch correction on the vocals. had to be true to the artists' unique style and sound. edited the rhythm gtr out whenever the keys were playing and in the last section. all the individua sections, bass, drums, perc, Lvox, BVox, Gtr, Keys have some sort of parallel compression. th...
