In this episode, I give a small start to what beginner mix engineers should know. First having a good understanding of what the industry sound is crucial for any aspiring engineer. How do you get it? Anywhere music is distributed, whether it’s on streaming platforms, radio, or vinyl. Listen in detail to what makes that record great from an engineer’s standpoint. Analyze the nuances that contribute to its overall appeal. Where does the low end sit in relation to the high end? Does it sound over-compressed, or do the dynamics breathe well? Pay close attention to how well the vocals integrate with the instrumentation.
A well-mixed vocal can make or break a track. Consider elements like reverb, panning, and EQ-ing, and how they interact with each other. You need to lock all these things into your brain and ears. Doing so will allow you to develop a keen sense of awareness. Do not train your visual presence. Instead, focus on honing your listening skills. Trust your judgment. Doing so will help you truly grasp the intricacies of sound mixing. Starting this journey requires patience and dedication. The payoff is worth it. You can bring your own creative vision to life through your mixes.
