Everyday before I get to work I listen to one of these Q and As. I never went to school for this stuff but the 10 years of experience I have with sound engineering, plus these guys suggestions are a great combination.

Andrew is my favorite mix engineer... hands down! That guy is so damn cool and everything he touches sounds sooooooo amazing... I swear if I ever win the lotto or come into money I'd pay him as much as it took to shadow him mixing my songs!!!

Simbi88 I agree. Unfortunately most of them have an undesirable attitude. That just makes me love Andrew more, such a humble guy. But they're all very skilled, so I'm happy to accept their shortcomings and learn from them anyways. :)

Thanks for the brain candy... I'm hoping to be a famous engineer someday and look up to guys like yourself so thanks again for doing videos like this!

Yea S/O to the guys who asked good questions as these were all things I've been pondering on especially analog summing boxes. Looks like I'll just stay ITB with Waves console emulations till I can afford and Neve, SSL, API or might just go with a Toft ATB24...

Gonna be a producer or engineer one day, and I'm learning new stuff every day. One thing i always think about is how far must i go, how much knowledge do i need and what do i miss to be able to mix and master like a real professional producer/mixer/engineer? so these videoes really help me to understand how a pro thinks. Thanks !!

But using outboard gear with a DAW is easy... use the DAW as a multi-track and send direct outs from pro tools through your D/A to use a console to mix, then record your console stems (or stereo master) back to pro tools for mastering.

People, Did you hear that Andrew mixes LCR ?? RUN FOR THE HILLS !!

@christophergarcia8956 7 жыл бұрын

He also mentioned that he does that because of the complications his neve gives him, and when he mixes in the box he will pan his tracks across the stereo field and not just in LCR. He only mixes in the box now.

Andrew, This is fantastic. What are your go to eq, and compression for dialing in the bass and kick drum? You mention in the end of the video that you have some go-to tools.

This is the first time I've ever seen this great guy talking, and to my pleasant surprise he seems to have almost exactly the same beliefs as I do.

@kronier 10 жыл бұрын

***** Mono always has been and always will be important. If your mix doesn't work without the side channel, you have not mixed well, because overusing the side channel is not only technically shit in terms of real world audio but also sounds shit. Mixing LCR doesn't constitute overusing the side channel because it folds nicely.

@Nightmoore 10 жыл бұрын

***** Oh come on. None of the pros mix for mono. They will check it and see if it absolutely falls apart, but unless you're mixing for elevator/hold music, it's a waste of time. The people who sit around listening to music on their iPhone's external speaker are not the kind of people who give a crap how the music sounds. If they cared about the experience at all, they would slap on some earbuds or plug it into SOMETHING with a stereo output. Even Pensada admits to ultimately not caring about mono. It's hard enough mixing for speakers that can only cover a little over half the full frequency range. When people are talking about "most people listen on their phones", they are talking about earbuds plugged into a phone. And with a 256 or 320kbs encoded MP3 and a good set of earbuds with decent bass response, that's a SOLID way to enjoy well mixed music.
