FACTS!!!!! it's almost like the way we've all or some of us, been brought up and programmed, that's systematic...Go to School, Go To College, Get a Job, repeat.....there's more than one way to get the results you want and be successful...but I appreciate you always bro, and giving a real perspective of how this shit really goes.....
You gotta do your own adjustments basically and see how it turns out. I tend to use more air than your supposed to but I add a dynamic eq to the high end to smooth it out
Pepper don’t get that an engineer in general solves problems at hand. Whether that’s civil engineer, audio engineer, etc. If there was one formula to make every song sounds good there would be no need for an engineer.
I am very much an amateur tracking / mixing / mastering engineer. But I have been writing hip hop since I was a kid. I have been banging my head against the wall learning how to use different recording hardware, DAWs, plugins etc. its seems to be true that theres now one right way to do things, but I habe definitely made progress using different combinations of the information received from the myriad of videos, tutorials, and literature in the audio community. There's really no wrong answer or method to mixing. I'm about 2 years into the craft, and some days i literally clocked 12 hours a day recording/mixing failing and succeeding. I am only recently getting to close to a pro quality sound, and honestly it was the very basic fundamentals that mafe the difference, namely the nailing the tracking was key. Before I could track well, it made all the following steps in gains staging/mixing/mastering feel impossible and become a chore. Even eqing vocals was a nightmare. The silver lining after all the suffering with bad equipment and vocal stems, now with good vocals (especially not my own vocals), its seems easy to mix grear songs and fun through the whole proccess to the point its hard to believe i could get paid to do it one day.
yea yup, u right, I keep trying stuff sometimes that others would say is wrong, just today I tried putting waves kaleidoscopes plugin on master bus to a mixed beat, ngl it made the mix trash compared to what it was before but doing stuff like this daily I now know what works, what might and have some bells and whistles picked along the way, I do what feels right, sometimes I be sticking to some of my own presets I made which sometimes limits me so I clear out my mixing chain to force myself to find another way around the mix
LOL. Neither your full sale degree, nor your real life field experience no the validation of your technique by other industry professionals matter sky… Social media audio engineer will always be that… A social media audio engineer. Looking more at numbers than feeling… after having the opportunity to sit with some of the best audio engineers in my country, Trinidad and Tobago, I quickly learnt that 99% of the things social media engineers fight over, the people that are actually engineering the tracks that you hear in a party… 99% of the time… Gives zero shits about those things. As far as again goes, if it’s not clipping, it’s good. Everything else is subjective.
That’s why I do what I do lol I just hate when ppl won’t accept that mixing isn’t an objective thing. There’s not a perfect solution and it’s still on the artists to build their fanbases
You can’t bother with those guys sky. You have years of practised professionalism. They have years of practised foolishness. Completely different skills at my guy. Do not argue with people that refuse to learn or accept better ways of doing things. They will either knowledge, when they are truly ready to improve, or will always reject higher levels of thinking.
