I love that you use your higher education creditials to reinforce your mixing approach. Not that a higher education is at all required to know how to properly be a mix engineer, but its extremely satisfying to see scholar-driven guidance given in such a modern area of expertise.
I'm really grateful for my degrees, I was able to learn a ton from some really experienced engineers and designers, but there are aspects of it where academic bureaucracy can get in the way and I think many get lost in it. Definitely set me up with great fundamentals and a ton of opportunities to practice and learn on my own time, but many students don't capitalize on that. Worked for me though, just meant I got to steal their time in the studios :)
That's enjoyable to hear because I was kind of unsatisfied with the way these videos came out. I think I can make it a better experience for the viewer.
@@MoonlitMusicGroup after 20+ years as a studio owner and 25+ years as a touring/studio musician, it is great to watch you go into great detail with the "how's" & "why's". This is whats missing in most studios. Any videos in the works?(
@@robertwhite9378 working on this episodic series about mixing rock. There's two more episodes coming for drums before moving into guitars. 😁 Taking any requests as well of course.
@@MoonlitMusicGroup plz keep my contact info, just in case you ever offer any courses. You see, I had Sudden Onset Complex Seizure Disorder (type of epilepsy) approx 9 yrs ago. Many limitations, but, my happy place is engineering. I have a couple of young men that I know, who want to get into audio engineering. I'll refer
Just what i do...1 of my dirty lil secrets is.. i will throw a compressor on 1st. Squash it so my breaths and esses are exposed...then clip gain them down.. then when done, remove compressor and start from there...works everytime! BOOM!

Your approach is so well explained that I honestly feel like unlearning what I’ve found and sticking with your channel. Fantastic work!
So humbled to hear that. I put a lot of thought into how to explain things so it's music to my ears that it's translating.
There is not enough videos like this on RUclips! Subbed. You should do a video where you go through the notebook would love to see that haha.

Excellent video! Real "meat & potatoes" video. Your not only telling about mixing Drums, but, your explaining practical application. Thank you.
I have always believe that the "how" is useless without the "why?" Glad you agree!
