    Cannot stress #1 enough. When I was starting out I couldn’t figure out why my mixes weren’t hitting as hard as “commercial” mixes and it’s all due to the source recordings. Then I stumbled across a really well tracked song and the mix came together seamlessly - changed everything for me. You can only polish a turd so much.

    Great tutorial! What’s your opinion on pink noise mixing? Also, many plugins like Nexus add a lot of default reverb to sounds. Do you turn reverb off and add back in later in a bus? And finally what acoustic panels do you have in your studio?

    • @MakePopMusic
      @MakePopMusic  3 года назад

      I don't like mixing to pink noise. Typically I will adjust the reverb of the synth preset to fit the timing and depth of my track. If I am adding a ton of different synths and the reverbs are all over the place, occasionally I will turn the internal reverbs off and use a send or an insert with similar settings to get the synths in the same space, but that's rare for me.

    How do you feel about mixer presets for workflow? For example of once the vocals is routed to your mixer channel, pull up a preset that opens your compression, delay, reverb etc

    • @MakePopMusic
      @MakePopMusic  3 года назад +2

      I don't like presets unless I'm mixing that artist again and I have a chain from the last time I mixed it. I rarely ever use preset chains. I have a template with my general routing and color coding, and from there every project gets its own treatment :D

      @MakePopMusic  3 года назад

      Have you ever found the final mixes on streaming platforms? These videos are quite a bit darker than the actual mixes because the recording software doesn’t capture lossless audio and then RUclips also steps on it. The mixes sound pretty different on the channel than the final mixes.
