The pink noise method is a fantastic way to get initial levels in a quick and easy way. Starting with the pink noise at -12 dB, the entire mix is at a level that is ready to mix. You can hear everything in the mix at this point, nothing is buried. After a couple minutes getting your quick levels you then adjust the mix without the noise, raising the vocal, lowering the high hat, etc. Another couple minutes to do that.
So, you get perfect levels, you don’t miss any elements, and you are still adjusting to taste without the noise. That’s a lot for a total of about 5 minutes.
On the verse you have to turn up the vocals till you hear every word. Then compare them. Vocals are different. Pink noise one sounded better just not how you did the vocals it’s a trick to the vocals.
Its obvious what sounds better :) The slope of pink noise is not very suitable for modern music, specially bass heavy.But anyway I really liked YOUR mix.Subscribed.
Fair enough!
I like top to bottom style of mixing rather than this, and I do it in mono where everything is on top of each other so I can see if my vocals are dominant, followed by kick and bass, then piano and other stuff..., then I play my important stuff vs less important individually and check if there are any masking/fighting so I can fix it without isolating things too much and, voila
ahhh, not for me. It's enough to hear a bad recorded instruments that I usually get to work with. Adding a pink noise on top of that would totally ruin the good stuff about mixing. And it's not even worth it as you proved with your ears. Don't trust social media advice haha :D
Hearing pink noise all the time would drive me crazy lmao. And I think it really takes out the fun in mixing!
