here's my usual chain (varies of course) 1. Waves Desser 2. Blockfish or Waves Rencomp 3. Waves Ren EQ 4. Volume/pan 5. Reverb Send (love the Kajerhus classic) I'll let in around 20% sometimes Ill add in Magneto to warm up a vocal..this would go after the EQ.

i wouldnt worry about mixing them in mono..thats just a way to listen for phase cancelling..do that to check your mix, but don't go overboard...but yeah, all those things i put in the center.

i never said to use a lot of EQ and polish a turd. I'm just saying that there is never a record made that is mass distributed w/out EQ on it. Just notching vocals, or kicks or bass is EQing. High Passing guitars is Eqing..it is commonly done. EQing to get a sound is a bad thing of course. I too...

"If you tracked it right, you shouldn't need any eq!" damn..well that pretty much means the engineers on just about every album released don't know what they are doing. How do you get a great mix w/out EQIng? I think Eq is a very important part to a mix. Not overdone, but even just a few cuts...

i have the firebox..great choice..the Pres are excellent for the price. make sure your computer is prepared though, until i get a dedicated DAW set up, there were plenty of dropouts...I'd reccoemnd getting a texas instruments firewire card for 20 bucks..or if you have a gigabyte motherboard...

im new here, but not new to recording. I think a lot of the things in that post were good advice. I would not reccomend high passing your guitars that much though. He did mention he was better at mixing funk then rock though, and that may be a reason. for guitars, each mix is different (of...

i use tracktion..love it. I use a lot of VSTis so it is perfect for that. It also has a very powerful summing engine and sounds great. I think many people dont take it seriously because of the price, but it could easily be sold for 5 times as much. It also is a very easy interface to use. I...
