would you rather track, or mix

[giraffe]

just curious.

i think i like tracking better, but it's close.

i hope i didn't f*&$ this poll thing up

 

[Blue Bear Sound]

I don't mind tracking at all, but my fave is mixing..........!

 

[Track Rat]

It's about 60/40 in favor of mixing. That's where you can do Jedi magic!

 

[thajeremy]

I think a lot of it has to do with the band...If they dont want to listen to you (as far as their amp settings and such) or if they just suck, then tracking can be a real bitch. You can mix all alone if ya want...

 

[MichaelM]

I like both, I don't like endless retakes though.....

 

[Rokket]

There's no choice for liking both equally...

But then the mix might too...
(Or you're right. It could be it might be "All Done" in an hour or two...

Tracking, I like to play with my microphones.

 

[Sonixx]

mix by far...

 

[reshp1]

I like mixing more than the juggling act of tracking myself or my band, which sucks. I'm about 50-50 on stuff for other people.

 

[strat0tele]

Mixing assuming the tracking was done well. I find the better I track the easier my mix is. It almost falls together without effort.

 

[chessrock]

I need to do both, because I am a control freak.

 

[Massive Master]

Neither...

 

[Carter]

I need to do both, because I am a control freak.

I agree with this statement Im the same way!

 

[7string]

I agree with this statement Im the same way!

Same here. I just wish I knew a little more about both.

 

[Henri Devill]

Tracking is the most fun to me...mixing not so much

 

[Drummerdude1989]

tracking. I'm just getting into the whole mixing thing, and i always manage to fuck everything up with all the effects lol.

 

[RhythmRmixd]

Mixing over tracking any day of the week.

 

[Grunk]

tracking, cause you can't always fix it in the mix!

 

[Middleman]

Mixing is better because I get to sit on my butt finally. Tracking is all hustle.
