Hi all,
I've been cranking out dozens of small projects and are slowly learning how to deal with all the tracks and make a mix - probably a poor quality job compared to the "real" studio guys but this *is* home recording.
The next project is going to be a lot more complicated on the track front. Many many tracks, grouped into 3 or 4 part harmonys, panned, overlapped etc.
Usually I'd juist start at the beginning, put it all down and deal with whatever issues came up but this time I'm attempting to hit it a little smarter. The problem is, I don't know how.
This also makes it hard for you to offer advice since I haven't given alot of info to you! So I guess the biggest things on my mond right now are
- effect / bus efficiency. I guess I have to be careful about what effect I put where and avoid double ups. In previous songs, I got lazy at times and had (for example) effect on 3 tracks where I could have run them all into one.
Oddly this is all my mind can make up right now, knowing that there will be dozens of (probably more important) issues to sift though.
Can any one offer any advice or thoughts before I start? Are there any rules that can be adhered to (links to reading material perhaps?)
Using Cubase.
Cheers,
