Hi Everyone, Here's my entry for Round 2 of Mix Challenge 081. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1X0vVfGypU3hcWctBcfaIEm4SjKcc7owE/view?usp=sharing The first thing that I did was to realign the lead vocal so that it was in the correct position :oops: Then I set to work on making the kick punchier. To ...

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC080 September 2021 - Mix Round 2 temporarily stopped

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree then :smile:

Cheers!

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC080 September 2021 - Mix Round 2 temporarily stopped

For those interested: Balancing, Multing & Compressor Choice First, let me repeat myself: concentrate on the balance of the tracks in your mix. If the tracks balance fine as they are, no‑one will arrest you for leaving them alone! The trick is to wait until you spot a fader that you can't really...

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC080 September 2021 - Mix Round 2 temporarily stopped

Thanks for the reply. Although there isn't a strict definition of "multing", what you're referring to isn't how I understand or use the term. "Multing" is taking a section of a recording and moving it to a separate track. A section in this case refers to something like a verse or...

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC080 September 2021 - Mix Round 2 until 19-OCT-2021 23:59 UTC+2/CEST

Hi All, A quick question about a comment I received - "adding effects after seperating one track into many, will mostly always lead to strange sounds and artifacts." "Multing" or breaking tracks out into separate parts so that they can be processed differently is very common. I d...

Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC080 September 2021 - Mix Round 1 in evaluation

Wondering what everyone thought of the vox track and their approach ? It was a raspy performance (good for song) , but it also sounded pretty hot to me already so I really didn't want to add any saturation to them at all. Trying to harness them in with serial compressors just made them too hot imo....
