My first mix.
I have no gear yet except a multitrack program and a $99 pair of studio headphones. Of course, I plan to buy gear. In the mean time, someone gave me a CD full of wave files to practice on. He wanted to see what I could do with them. Each file was a single instrument track to a song which he had abandoned a few years ago. All I had to do was to import them into my software and line them up. But alas, they were badly clipped.
At first I thought my headphones were breaking up, but then a zoom in the edit window showed some severe square waves on every last file. Wow! My first audio job ever was to repair badly damaged tracks.
I worked on them diligently until I had them as clean as I could get them. I went on to mix the song and this is the result.
How did I do??? Or better yet, should I still pursue that career in audio engineering?
