What Cambridge MT has over the other site's multitracks, is that it adds problem solving to the mixing equation more than the others. You'll find a lot of tracks on there may be some poorly recorded, phase issues, bleed issues, etc. This is a good thing though because you're presented with challenges to overcome, rather than a perfectly recorded song. I think Mike actually has some mixing notes on at least some of the MT's, where he explains the potential issues and how he went about fixing them. Mike is also on the SOS podcast at times. Definitely worth a follow.
Bleed isnt necessarily an issue. A lot of the recordings on cambridge MT have very little bleed. Its very easy to work through. The main issue is definitely the preference towards having an inner and outer kick mic, which can sometimes be a challenge. One song that guves ne a lot of trouble and which I havent quite gotten right yet is "coming home" by the Alan Evens trio. All the drums sound great IMO except for the kick, which really doesn't sound like a kick. Not entirely sure how to mix that.
This is actually simple but great advice! "The best way to get better is to mix more!" I have periods where I'll break from doing full songs to just recording about 30 seconds of an idea and add all the elements and practice on those quick takes. This way I've found, I can get quicker and better results and risk getting excited about a full song and wasting all that time and it coming out not as good as it could have.

hmm... what is a good snare or kick sound ? To me it's all suggestive, rhythm can be anything that keeps the beat or not sometimes :>) it doesn't needs to sound a certain way as long as it's mixing well with the music you have in mind ...
Absolutely, and knowing if the spill or bleed is going to help your drum sound or cause a problem. This should all be planned in the recording session of course!

That’s a great idea. You can bolt those ideas together to make complete songs!

it seems "Mix The Music" doesn't work :(
thank you
Thanks for watching!
Are there any safe for livestreaming mixing tutorials?
You mean using them for tutorials? Tricky that, I always ask for direct permission but have been caught out a couple of times
@@SaraCarterSimplyMixing Exactly. It would be nice to find a resource of non-copyright tracks to use for this purpose.
simplemente maravilloso le escrbi un correo con mi telefono espero poder contactarle
is mixthemusic not around anymore?
Possibly not, I did this video some time ago now 😕
It's a Boy !!!!
