A part 2 would really be great! Great informative video
Yes, Mike, it is always a great realignment of my attitude towards mixing to return to the basics, so please proceed with Part II. I certainly knew these items before you mentioned them, but we so easily forget the fundamentals in our hurry to move along. Hearing them again, collected together as a set of principals, evokes that "oh yeah!" response. Thanks, as always, for your generosity and kindness.
OF COURSE I WANT A PART 2 - sorry for shouting... I love your presentations... I have the MOST IMPORTANT project of my life... it has to be as perfect and possible. I've gone back to the first version and started with re-gain-stages. I'm finding all kinds of unexpected (and negative) issues.
Hi Mike. I think everyone wants to have a second version 😄 ! In Cakewalk, I use Aux tracks for specific "sections" instead of a bus (e.g. FXs on vox). Then the vox mix, and the Aux track(s) are sent to a dedicated bus. These sections are saved in a Screenset via the Track Manager. It's a way I found when I work on sections and I don't wanna have all tracks in the console.
Yes please 🙂. Part 2. Thanks a lot for your tips Mike 🙏🏻.
Would love to hear a Part 2, Mike. I'll also stand by for a Part 3, cause I know you've got a lot more valuable information to share with us.
Yes a part 2 please.
Yes please to the part 2. Could you possibly also do a demo of comparing to a reference track and what changes you would make in the process and why. Thanks legend. 👍
Compliments mike . Great video .l loved it .please please please Part 2 .
Great work and great tips, especially for people starting out. So much of this would have helped me when I started. Even if I didn't use StudioOne, this is great tips.
I'd say one big tip that I always rolled my eyes over was coloring your tracks and naming them. I'm the only one ever working on this project...but seriously, it helps. And color your busses the same color as what tracks are going to that bus. Lastly, if you see yourself using the same plugins in the same places and have the same routing and busses, save it as a template. Cut your time in half.
Also, Mike you should seriously write a book. Even if it's a book for beginners. From setting up a mic, differences between dynamic and condenser, how to DI a guitar/bass, how to set up a mic stand, roll cables, what's an interface. I think that could go far. Find a someone to help write it. You have that ability to teach and reach and make the info stick. That's a gift.
Thanks Mike.
Yes please may we have some more?
You're a great teacher.
Part 2 - Yes please!
Part 1 was very informative.. Part 2 would be great, please Mike.
part two please Mike. Great job as always, thanks.
Yes. Part 2 please!
Yes! we want more! we want more!!
Mike ! , Yes a part two please! Thanks much for all the great info.
Part 2 Yes please Mike.
Part 2, part 3, part 4.... it's all gold
YES, Part 2! Please and thank you. :)
Great vid! Pt 2? Yes please 🙏🕊️
Thanks again for all the excellent information and a part 2 would be awesome!
As always, great video Mike! 😎 Yes, please do a Part 2 follow-up video.
Hi Mike, great tips and yes a part two would be good.🎸🍻
Great advice Mike. I always test my mixes by listening through end user devices. The car is my favourite.
Really helpful tips, looking forward to part 2 👍👍
Great video! I would love a part two
Thanks Mike!! Glad you're back!
Hi Mike, great stuff! I'd appreciate a pert 2 as well.
Yes please Mike. Great video as always and happy new year
Thanks Mike. It would of course be great to see part 2, as these type of introductions/reminders are so valuable. Keep up the good work 🙏
Please, make more videos like this.
Thank you Mike. A part 2 would really be helpful. Appreciate all you do here and always look forward to your videos.
We need a part 2!!
Yes Mike - Big thumbs up for a Part 2! Also, your opinion on Steven Slate's VSX would be appreciated. I'm a newbie at mixing. I have VSX and it seems to be very revealing (and I can mix without bugging my wife!). I'd love to know what an experienced mixer like you thinks of VSX.
Part 2 would be great
I would love to see another part discussing your tips and tricks as your advice is direct and to the point, as well as being accumulated from years of experience.
Keep talking Mike, because we'll keep listening!
Let's do part 2!
Yes Please 👍
2nd version would be great! It would be great if you could do a video about sources for Reference Tracks. Where can you obtain them and how do you import them. Thanks, Mike!
Part 2 please ❤
I would definitely love a part two! In particular I have problems with knowing what to do when something doesn't sound right. Is the problem EQ, Compression or simply Volume? These question occur way too often when I'm mixing my own songs. Also I've not yet figured out why my Reverb always sounds kind of dirty and just not right. Great video as always!
Part two please😊and massive thanks for the first☝️
Hi Mike, I hope you´re well too! 🙂 Love your videos and how you straighten up things for us less experienced. I think one of the things that would help me a lot would be for you to tell us some basic notions about how to pan the different instruments/sections of our mixes. E.g.: Are the drums panned to the left? to the same side the basses are? are they duplicated and panned to both sides? do we pan all the drum elements as one? should we split and use different panning for each one of the drum elements?... I hope that helps to create more of this amazing content! Cheers!
Part 2,3,and 4 please!!!
Part 2 please!
Yes. A part 2 (and 3, 4, 5....) would be nice.
I have a five part listening test.
1. Headphone 1 where you do the mixing (daw)
2. Sending the mix with Bluetooth to my self phones and do the listening with headphone 2 before you save it in some music players.
3. Listening in a music player with headphone 2.
4. Sending the file to messenger an do the listening there with headphone 2.
5. And finaly in the car.
All those 5 places has it own character
part2 pls!👍
graet video more beginners stuff theres not much stuff like this out there
The problem today for reference tracks is that the will be MP3 not .WAV or lossless. I have always been told not to use MP3 tracks. As for listening on various speakers, Focusrite had a brilliant device called the VRM. I have one and it really does allow for learning how mixes sound on various devices. I have also heard that I K Multimedia's ARC 3 incorporates a plugin to allow the experience of hearing a mix/master on various applications.
Hi there! Great and informative channel and videos. I have recently tried few daws after using cakewalk/sonar from the 90's at this point. Studio one looks promising but the track/bus peak monitoring is confusing because there is not peak value numbers. Maybe i am missing here.. Tutorial about metering would be nice. Cheers..
Part 2 please
Please do!
+1 for Part 2
Great thricks. Aren't you using Cakewalk anymore?
Very hard to eq a reverb as an insert without affecting vocal too.
Please sir...can I have some more? 😁
There is a free car test plugin
Thanks Mike after years of wanting to get into music practicing everything theory, guitar and what the heck is this Mixing stuff I have now got to THIS point. I am screaming for wanting to know about all the plug-ins I purchased watching RUclips University with YOU. Much Thanks as it is a great Start !
Yes, part 2 please!
