    A different kind of mix contest

    They didn't use a click track - they just went for it. I'm not going to post the mix from the cd. This is where the producer shines. Make it work. :) There is always PM9 if this isn't the type of thing you want to do. Chris (xfinsterx) has been faithfully doing the type of thing you're...

    A different kind of mix contest

    NL5 was gracious to lend his space. Thanks man! The files are there now. It's a big zip file called 'lighter-song.zip' Link to the file: www.nlrstudio.com/mp3/lighter-song.zip

    A different kind of mix contest

    Nothing wrong with that. This is really to allow for "production freedom". To repeat what I said in my first post, this isn't really a contest. If someone goes through the trouble of adding new parts, and it makes the song sound better, isn't that a good thing? If you do the best with the...

    A different kind of mix contest

    Cool, it looks like this is going to happen real soon. I'm just waiting for word from NL5 on the ftp space. This is a tune that I mixed for a friend about a year ago. I was able to get a pretty good mix using the tracks supplied. I spoke with the artist and asked if he'd be willing to put...

    A different kind of mix contest

    Wow... thought there was no interest in this. OK, I need someone to offer up some ftp space for the tracks. Anyone?

    Public Mix Contest #8!!!!!!!!

    I put up a thread a few days ago asking if anyone would be interested in doing a mix where the mixer had full permission to do whatever they felt was necessary to make the song sound good. I only had a few replies. I think it would bring out some of the other aspects of engineering. This tune...

    A different kind of mix contest

    Well, not really a contest. Just some fun for us who are wanting to do some production. Who would be up for mixing a song, about 16 tracks, where you can do anything you like? Add tracks, cut / paste, or just mix what’s there. xfinsterx can continue with his deal too. I know he's planning...

    Samplitude 7 Classic any users??

    Believe it or not, you can still find amazing deals on version 6. That was the best eighty dollars I've ever spent on recording gear. It offers great options for mastering as well.

    Free ProTools Download If Anyone Needs It

    It was just a way to post so we could see his add. So if pro tools LE isn't the best, is it the worst? Sorry, just kidding. :)

    Public Mix Contest #7

    Hey Man, just listened to your mix. Ok, I’m not trying to be a wise guy, but I think if you try and answer this question and understand, you’ll be able to improve your mixes. Why did the think that that amount of reverb sounded good when you first applied it? I think you’re having problems...

    Public Mix Contest #7

    No offense to Mark, but the drums were recorded very poorly, IMO. Part of mic placement takes into account the pickup pattern as to minimize leakage. If it weren't for the track names, it would have been hard to tell exactly where these mics were placed. The less of the tracks that I used...

    Public Mix Contest #7

    If just stating my observations to normal mixing jobs that i get. Dc - you're right. the producer is in charge. I've always thought and agreed with this. I'm only noticing that we are here to have fun. More than half the guys here would like the freedom to 'work their magic' on these...

    Public Mix Contest #7

    If parts are changed, or they are not changed, good sound is good sound. In some cases, sections NEED to be muted, some drums need to be replaced, some vocals NEED to be tuned, etc. If the artist chooses horrible kick drum sounds over "corrected" ones, well, that says it all . Good sound is...
