I've been mixing lots and lots of guitar tracks for about 2 years, and I still find that I avoid hard panning more often than not. To my ear the guitar often just loses something subtle when hard panned, whether it's power, space, presence, or tone more generally. Your idea for letting frequency be a partial guide for panning placement is a good one. I'll definitely play around with it.
This is roughly what I came to after first not panning…then hard panning, then used my ears. Except that took a lot of time and guessing. I like this structure. Sometimes I think we forget to just listen.
This is great. I've instinctively done this following my ear and my gut geeling but it's really nice to get confirmation I'm on track. New subscriber here
Hey Emily! I sound like you :) (Roll Tide Alabama) Great job on this tutorial and very much appreciated. Timely topic as I too am trying to better myself at my small level mixes. Rock on!
Hey Emily, this is a great video. Just wondering if you have any on panning in a three piece band? I know some people hard pan doubled guitar takes, but sometimes that seems too 'big' when you'd rather just have a raw three-piece sound. But it's also sort of hard to balance symmetrically with one guitar track only. Not sure what you balance opposite it. On stage, it would be bass left, guitar right, but I'm not sure if that would be lop-sided in headphones.
Room sounds? Are you referring to room mics? Just depends on the sound you want. Panning them wide gives spread, depth. Panned towards the middle gives you a closer more intimate feel.
@@bosrongphar do you mean send a copy of the panned guitars to a single track with reverb and keep the original guitars tracks as well? Do you center the reverb track?
@@emily_bowie he wants to be able to perform his tracks live on stage so I was thinking to mute the lead so he still has all of his backing tracks and he would take up the lead vocal spot.
@@Ahowe61993 ok I see. Yeah, I would mute the vocals and if you have mix bus processing I would check that and adjust accordingly. Bc when you take something out, things like compression might not be hitting your mix like before.

So helpful. The panning aspect and its subtle nuances is such great advice. This is definitely A Cut Above tutorial. Thank you
Thanks for sharing!

Great lesson and mix! ty EB
Ok, this video was full of gems. I need to see all your videos haha🙏

Thanks for being here, Wagner!
Great video Emily.
Do you pan the room sounds for each guitar opposite of themselves also?
Room sounds? Are you referring to room mics? Just depends on the sound you want. Panning them wide gives spread, depth. Panned towards the middle gives you a closer more intimate feel.
I guess he is talking about the reverb.
@@bosrongphar Yes, I meant to inquire about panning the room reverb sound opposite.
If you ask me...i would create one FX reverb channel and send all the instruments in that single FX channel.
@@bosrongphar do you mean send a copy of the panned guitars to a single track with reverb and keep the original guitars tracks as well? Do you center the reverb track?
If I have only double tracked my guitar what's the best deal to pan? 80% left and right?
I need help! I'm trying to make a performance mix for a hip hop artist but I don't know what to do
I’ve got a couple videos on mixing hip hop. But without more information it would be hard to suggest anything else.

@@emily_bowie okay I will do that. Thanks for the help as always
