If only for a moment.....
If you've been mixing for years and you're vastly experienced, do you think it's possible to be so at the top of your game that you simply cannot get any better ?

Do you learn something about the process ?I have been mixing live and studio for over 35 years, every time I mix I learn something
I have been playing guitar for nearly fifty years. During the first,say, fifteen years, my playing skill developed rapidly. After that it slowed. During the last fifteen years it has plateaued.
This sense of reaching a plateau has accompanied other pursuits: my ability to draw plateaued when I was about sixteen. My skill at reading music flatlined at about twelve.
I am very tempted to say that improvement can stop. Ultimately, of course, it does stop. There are physical limits that constrain continuous improvement, and ultimately, of course, there is death that stops things dead in their tracks.
I think, though, that learning doesn't need to flatline. Even if my guitar playing doesn't get any better, I can still learn how to be more discerning, to be more tasteful and to be more musical in my playing.
Makes me wonder how Hendrix would have sounded today if he was still around.
He'd be 70... so probably not so hot...![]()
because it's never just a technical thing.
Do you learn something about the process ?
