Listen Later

Chris and Jody wade into the murky depths of audio masking—a sneaky culprit that can turn your mix into a muddy mess. If your instruments are fighting for attention and your mix feels cluttered, this episode is for you!

We’ll explore:

  • What is audio masking? The science behind why some sounds disappear in a mix.
  • Which instruments are the usual suspects? Find out where masking commonly occurs.
  • How to spot (and stop) masking before it kills your clarity.
  • Listening strategies & EQ moves to carve out space for each track.
  • The best software tools to visually detect and fix masking issues.

    • Plus, this week’s Friday Finds brings another audio gem, and—let’s be honest—some nonsense will probably slip through.

    Whether you’re mixing your first track or refining your pro workflow, this episode will help you clear the mud and make your mix shine!
