In this episode the guys discuss the importance of workflow when making music. Can a bad workflow slow down your progress? Is a good workflow really the key to better mixes and more productive sessions? Is your workflow very different from others?

THANK YOU!! When they were goin back and forth and acting like Pro Tools was the only DAW you can produce, record, and mix in I was like “huh??🤔😂” I never felt like it was unorthodox to work completely in one DAW. I been doin everything in Logic for yearsss. Not saying other DAWS don’t have that capability. Just don’t leave Logic out the convo fr.💯

I’m a Protools ride or die but I just wanna vouch for my man Court real quick! I was taught by an Ableton user through an online class how to mix and he would always do the trick of using the utility plug-in and turning it to mono when he’d do his bass or anything that needed to be mono-ed out! And just to be clear the man I learned from was a professional within the industry under Mixxin Academy so it wasn’t just some random class!🤪 Anyways, great episode and I literally only know what day of the week it is based on this podcasts release!😂 PROTOOLS FOR LIFE!✌️

Workflow is everything to me. If I don't have a smooth way to just record what I have in my mind without alot of technical crazy stuff going on it really bothers me. I have converted my creation process to dawless. I do my finishing, mixing, and mastering with Ableton and bounce out for a master into LUNA. Less distractions, more focus on just making the music, super low latency, and it's super fast to just build out beats.

If you have Mono Inputs you can record in Mono, Audio From > Channel 1 (f.e.). You just have to set-up your Audio Inputs accordingly in the Preferences. Ableton can record in Mono, no Doubt! And you can convert to Mono when rendering the Live Set. Only when recording the Output of the Vocal Track to a new Track, or if you freeze, flaten or resample (which actually takes the Stereo Output from that Track or the Master), you get a Stereo File no matter if there is any Stereo Information in it or not. But you can convert to Mono when Rendering using (CTRL+SHIFT+R on Win).

Yea Logic Pro helps with my overall workflow. The normal thing to have done would be to bounce the trackouts out into Pro Tools. But I've found that I would unintentionally mix in Logic Pro and even master. My next phase is to start bouncing in place lol even that's something I gotta get used to because I love keeping midi information lol

Work flow with a client recording vocal or mixing is Studio One( did Pro tools for years. Not unhappy but not satisfied) Making music (beats) is FL. If I'm being creative I make the beat in FL (incomplete), Record vocals in Studio One with a 2 track. Then once I want to make arrangements I open FL in Studio One (FL works like a plugin) and have both open. I have an old pc but I built it. It still runs like a champ. I7 6 core 32gb ram 12terabytes of Disk space I work in video and audio but more video work. I built this back in 2011.

If you record a mono signal in ableton the files will be mono. All tracks are stereo but if the track contains mono clips, it will just duplicate to the L/R channel and lower the volume to compensate. At the end of the day there is no difference than other daws.

Not to mention I keep a minimum of 5 to 10 different ways for each task, Oh and don't forget to save preset chs. Im just sayin this my way of ready to cook up every time.

I work in multiple DAWs....and I've made music/beats in Pro Tools with absolutely no issues. Of course it's not as streamlined as most of the others but it's actually descent after really learning how to do inside of Pro Tools. How about each of you make a complete beat in the other's preferred DAW as a challenge and let us see what you guys come up with? (That's if you haven't already done it)

I don't understand how the name of the program can have the word PRO if I constantly encounter glitches and freezes. It's just horrible. I tried to become a user of this DAW (before that I worked with cubase, studio one, now with reaper) being influenced by the marketing vibe (industry standard, used by top engineers) but it's just ridiculous. I feel very sorry for these poor people who have been tied to this garbage for years and cannot leave it.
