I am 5 years in recording my own r&B and rap music. I am using a digi 002 for my console. I am constantly trying to learn new mixing techniques and would like input on mixing rap and R&B music. All of my tracks are individual, i.e. Kick, Clap, Snare, Hi Hat, Crash, Synth, Sample1, Sample 2, etc. Some of my quesitons are:
REVERBS: When/Where would you suggest using? On vocals only? Snares? etc.
PANNING: I keep my kicks, snares and claps centered. Where should I pan synths, Hi Hats, adlib vocals, etc.
COMPRESSION: Where would you suggest using compression? I always use on a lead vocal should I add to overdubbs, any instrument parts, etc?
Whatever advice/input you could give regarding mixing Rap & R&B music in PRO TOOLS 7.1 would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
