I'm bringing back what started it all! Beyond the Row is the show that sparked all of this... the YouTube channel, the content, the insight, education, courses, and tutorials. But, there's more to music and ourselves than watching YouTube for hours on end. So, we are broadening our spectrum on what is actually beneficial and how to make our musical journey a success. And that is what you'll find here on the Beyond the Row podcast!

It’s very easy to have imposter syndrome in creative fields.

There’s no certification, no degree, no test you can take that allows you the title, Mix Engineer, or Producer, Songwriter. Unlike being called a doctor, lawyer, pilot, contractor, realtor, etc…

Crazy thing is, you can literally jump on the internet and a give yourself the title of being anything you want.

And so that makes it easy for everyone out in internetland to accuse you of being in imposter. Therefore, making it very easy for you to start doubting yourself and feeling like you don't belong.

But, that's OK!

Is this the plugin of the future, or just another marketing attempt to sell more of the same refurbished plugin?

In the past I have been a huge fan of iZotope’s Ozone. These plugins are so well designed and basically have the technology to “talk” to each other.

And then there’s the Assistant feature that basically listens to your your tracks and mixes it for you. Well, at least that is the goal. But, can a plugin really mix your entire song for you? Would you even want a plugin to do that instead of you?

Each year it seems iZotope is launching a new version of Ozone more frequently than ever before. Is that because it keeps getting better?

Let’s find out how smart this plugin has become and put it through the test of “mixing” completely raw audio tracks.

This episode’s key points:

Enjoy!

Do you find guitar panning just a little confusing at times?

I know I do, especially when all you ever hear about is having only 3 panning choices - Left, Righ, and Center.

But, that’s not really true, is it?

I mean, if it were, a panning knob would be more of a switch with 3 settings instead of a full 180 degrees to choose from.

Right?

In this episode I’m going to show you my guitar panning techniques that give me more movement and clarity in my mixes.

This technique has made my mixes sound more musical and i know it will do the same for you!

In this episode you’ll learn:

Hope you enjoy!
