the "Abbey Road" EQ tip, which may also be applied to other FX, helps my "main" reverb sit so much better. gain mixing/level matching has been a huge help in getting a more consistent level throughout a mix. lastly, picking a main starting point, like kick & bass, then working everything else around that, gives me focal point to work with. these have been my biggest game changers since i've started focusing more on mixing. i hope one day to have enough proper knowledge, so then i can share what i know with others & help them out. anyhow, as always, thanks again Sara!
Sara you are sooooo good at explaining mixing, I’ve watched a lot of these kind of videos for years and yours is by far the best, we’ll done and keep up the great work 👍
My first big mistake was my arrogance. The thought that I already knew everything and that equipment would do the work. Today (not so much later) I know that I know (almost) nothing at all. This realisation is wonderfully liberating and the urge to discover and experience new things is immense! Thank you for your top notch videos! Cheers Lucas
Great Videos Sara 👏🏼. One of the "best" mistakes I made was...to create a solid stereo Bass and then finding me wondering, where it has gone as I listened back the track in mono...😂😂 I didnt knew anything about phase annihilation back then. Im very happy, finding your chanel.
Cant stress enough what a marvellous tutor you are.. coz I'm a tutor myself.... 👍👍👊👊 Please keep these plowing out more often... God bless you Sara.... 🏅
Sage advice indeed! Early on, improper (or no) gain staging was hurting my mixes. I'm glad that's a thing of the past. Getting mixes to translate well over varying sources can be tricky but bringing reference tracks into the DAW project helps tremendously.
Thanks Sara. Love the tip about multiple eq instances on the same track. I have a question pls... do you personally record and mix at 48 or 96k at 24 bit? Ta!
I don’t record these days but if I did, I’d choose depending on system resources and track count. I’d always go for the highest my system allows. If that means 24/48 then I’m happy with that.
Hey Sara, you sent me an email a week or so ago, which I responded to - I'm wondering if it ever reached you, hence me contacting you on here! All best. Thanks for your channel!
Hi Sarah, yes I got your email, thank you. It really helps me choose what sort of topics to cover here on the channel, so thanks again. Don't hesitate to email with any specific questions you may have or video requests!
Ironically this video needs a compressor on the audio. Your voice is soft and pleasant to listen to, but when you play the demo track it blasts uncomfortably above that.
@@SaraCarterSimplyMixing First one is about 8 minutes in. Goes from a very dynamic -23 LUFS average to a highly limited -14. If you look at the waveform they're pretty noticeable.

@@BadBlitz Errr, you're right, this comment is on the wrong video. It was meant for Sara's video on compressing bass here: ruclips.net/video/NBRawdT-h_0/видео.html How embarrassing

Share one of your mistakes, I bet we've all done it!
Your voice is so relaxing to listen to

Thanks for sharing this video!
Thanks for watching!
Excellent tip not EQing in solo out of context. I am guilty of that for sure
Me too from time to time! Haha. The trick is to recognise you’re doing it and quickly switch back. That’s a step in the right direction!
