Mix, No Walkthrough
Too Much Distance
About The Session
This is me mixing a song to the point of first delivery to the client. Raw mixing, fly on the wall in the session. The only edit is in the middle, when I had to take a break for a meeting, but no changes were made in the meantime.
The Setup
This video starts at the point after I had prepared the files for mixing. I’d clip-gained to suit my gain structure, routed and grouped tracks, sending them to approriate busses in my mix template, patched in all the hardward. It’s a mix from the begninning of the mixing process.
