Mixing Masterclass with Bob Power [MixCon 2017]

https://youtu.be/cHxMsawJsTc (13.01.2018)

  • Mixing:

    • musical balances

    • tonal balances: Natural distribution of frequency content between the represented instruments in the mix … right instruments pitched in the right way with the right timbre (sonic POV)

    • Creating a vibe … wenn du das hast, ist das andere nicht mehr so wichtig

    • Seing the artists and producers vision … it is not for you (Dienstleistung)

    • X-Factor: "Can I hear anything?" (Lebensaufgabe) … Wenn es im mix ist, ist es da um gehört zu werden (in der richtigen Proportion) … Wenn du es schaffst, in einem mix jedes Element hörbar zu machen, bist du „ahead of the game“ – some things would be darker, smaller, bigger: Wow!

    •  Live-Factor: Guter Song, gut performt! The Vibe is (should be in the production) … magnify it 4 times!

  • Dimensions:

    • Top to bottom

    • Side to side = Stereo field (L & R) C = Glue

    • Depth: Front to back (Ambience Generators, Volume, Timbre)

  • Delay: Echos im Canyon … Wiederholungen werden leiser und dunkler (high frequency roll-off)

  • Record = Issues of perception … wir können Dinge tun, die in der Natur nicht möglich sind

  • Mix … sollte ein „flat piece of paper“ sein

  • Layers VS Depth … keine Elemente, es geht um die Tiefe!

  • Truths: „You are not Katy Perry“

  • Ziel: Great recording of a great song … James Taylor kann eine gute Aufnahme am Handy machen: "Great performance of a great song“ … recording = Elevating & Compelling

  • Trust your monitors!

    • Flat: Bullshit!

    • Good monitors should reveal everything that is there

    • Know them well … and how it’s translating

  • Building Blocks:

    • Gain Controll Devices: Fader, EQ, Compression

    • Ambience Generators: Reverbs, Delays, Flangers, Choruses … Pitch (auch)

    • Gitarre: SFX

  • Ziel:

    • Generate a pleasant listening experience

    • Natural sounding instruments

    • Remove unpleasant artifacts (De-Esser & Co)

That Pedal Show - Pedal Order Basics: What Goes Where & Why?

https://youtu.be/SIX02EdJeyI (13.01.2018)

  • There are no answer just better questions

  • It the book: compressors first, drives second ... compressor AFTER drive: same job, more attack, solo (volume) boost

  • Delay > tremolo > reverb

  • Chorus before drives = part of the sound (compressed) ... after drive: besser zu hören
