- A few months ago, when Grammy winner Jacquire King (Kings Of Leon, James Bay, Mutemath) told me he was transitioning to mixing all in the box, I knew I had to get him to share his approach with you.
Last week he graciously sat down with me to talk in detail about his mixing approach and philosophy, specifically how he starts a mix when working in the box.
In this action packed interview Jacquire walks you through his mix buss approach, a secret trick he uses to gain stage and get the low end of his mix perfect, as well as his approach to recording music so that the mix comes together faster. Watch, pay attention, and take notes. Your music will thank you for it later. - เพลง

I JACQUIRED SO MUCH KNOWLEDGE FROM THIS INTERVIEW!!
how does this have so few likes
Taken from Graham -
- The missing piece for most artists when producing a record (this totally applies to home studio musicians) - 5:57
- Why as an artist you must also see yourself as a small business - 8:24
- The mistake many producers make is wanting to be in complete control - 15:19
- One simple strategy to getting the low end in your mix perfect every time (this blew my mind) - 20:09
- The trick to learning your room/speaker’s bass response (and how to compensate in your mix) - 28:19
- The “hand raising” mix approach that allows you to know what to do next in a mix - 30:49
- Why printing your mix in realtime is a strategic last step to getting your mix just right - 34:09
- How too much flexibility is a bad thing (and committing early and often is more strategic) - 37:09
- The danger of compartmentalizing each instrument when recording (or mixing) - 39:12
- What we as engineers can learn from Motown music (hint: it wasn’t the gear) - 47:12
- Why you shouldn’t focus on making a “good” sounding record - 48:19
+bobbob53629 You should write sales copy. In fact what's your email - I think we can do business.

Hexspa I mean what do you mean sales copy i havn'y done anything lol
Thank you for taking the time to post this index. :)
The thing with the balance of kick and bass on the meter as a guide for the ears, that's a big thing. Hugely valuable.
27:07 The perfect way to get your bass right in a poorly treated or untreated room. No headphones needed. Platinum nugget right there.
Great interview Graham. We appreciate the time you put in, to connect us to those doing what we love.
the gain structure with kick and bass was such a sick piece of advice, ive been trying to find something that i can really grasp for a long time. much appreciated!
Thanks so much Graham (and of course Jacquire!) for this video! This talk about uniqueness at the end has been the most inspiring thing for me in a long long time!
Much love and respect for you Graham.
You have done really great stuff here on youtube when it goes to us home recording folks.
Fantastic as always Graham! Thanks for sharing this.
Whoa! This is great information. Thanks for the awesome content Graham, and Jacquire of course.
a really great interview
Thanks Graham &
Jacquire King for making it happen!!!
This interview just saved me a ton of time! So many gems in this interview every engineer needs to watch this.
A big thanx to both of you guys. Great work, great tips. Keep it up!
Thanks Graham - I love these videos mate and ones like these are so valuable to everyone!
What a fantastic episode! The bass and kick drum balance tip was worth the entire listen. It reminded me of how Pensado would put his hand on the desk to feel the changes in low end he was making against his reference tracks when he was in an unfamiliar room. I also got a lot out of the the part where he talked about printing in real time or inviting a second listener just to make you hear things more objectively one last time before sending off the mix. Loved the guest, love what you do, Graham! Keep it up!
Oh wow... Really golden information here on this hangout! Thank you so much for sharing this, guys!
Lots to think about here. Thanks for sharing!
Great interview Graham, many many thanks to both of you for sharing!!!
As always quality content, thanks Graham.
Thanks to you both for that discussion.
Jacquire has become a huge influence. Thanks for this, Graham!
Another fantastic interview Graham!! the kick and bass tip just clued me in and is the most important thing I've learned
this year. It's no doubt going to save my butt in the future for both my own songs and other artists I'll be mixing for.
This was amazing, thank you both for sharing!
This guy is no joke can't wait to watch this
Thanks a lot guys for this interview! It's absolutely great and inspiring! Really cool!
What a great class! Thank you again Graham!
This was awesome!! Thank you both for the HUGE nuggets of information!!
This is pure gold. Thank you.
Such a fan of Jacquire's work and great to see his copy of TapeOp on the coffee table. Solid interview.
wow! A lot of great tips and tricks. Thank you!
Awesome. The kick/bass/vocal trick is what I have always done except that last in the Mix Bus chain I have a Mastering Limiter that I bypass before bouncing the mix down for Mastering. I find that the Mastering limiter helps me gauge the life and high end sweetness that will be there after Mastering. Without the Limiter on the Mix Bus while mixing I notice that many people's mixes lose the life and breath and energy after mastering. Anyway, very cool interview Graham
Very informative, Graham. Keep up the good work. I appreciate what you've been doing. Thank you!
Oh man, I've been learning so much from this video. Thank you, Graham, thank you, Jacquire!
Graham... you did it again!! Please keep this amazing work, its so helpful to all bedroom producers and ITB producers here to learn from the PROs!!!!
im an electronic music producer (EDM) but belive me, i learned a LOT!!! cuz the genres doesnt matter... the music its...
Let me start by saying thank you for this! This couldn't have come at a better time. I am a hip hop producer for Christian artists here in Cali and am coming to the end of producing my first album.
I have been told for months now that committing to sound design in the moment was idiotic because there is no going back. I've been told my production style is like doing artwork with a sharpie compared to with pencil. I bounce all my sounds I create and commit to them once I like them.
Hearing Him say that his preference is to commit to recording instruments the way he wants them in the moment really inspired and encouraged me to continue to explore new possibilities within music by making these kinds of decisions! It also gave me a new confidence in what I am doing.
So once again man!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
Be blessed bro! God is good!
Great interview !! Thanks for sharing it !!!
Thank you so much! This is pure Gold!!
Thank you for this great Q&A.
Thank you both!!
Great conversation. Lots of enlightening concepts. Thanks guys
Amazing watch. Get him on again!!!!!
This is so good! I'll be listening to this again.
This was an incredible interview. Listening to Jacquire talk about not being afraid of doing something different has inspired me to look at my mixes differently. So what if they don't sound like *insert band*, it wasn't that band that wrote and recorded that song. It's going to sound different and that's OK. Here I was worried because I just wasn't able to recreate that certain sound in my mix. I feel better, now.
This interview is great! Thanks, Graham!
You no idea how valuable. this was...thanx G'
Pricelesse knowledge!! Thanks a lot, Graham!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤜🏻🤛🏻
Great video! Kick and Bass was so difficult for me to mix. Now with the VU meter it's much easier to get the mix sounding sonically in the right direction. Thanks for the video!
Not only is this video amazing, but another thing that amazes me is that this video has under 100k views, BUT..a random video called How to make fire 808 that just provides a bad tip of 12db boost with an EQ at 40hz has 500k views. So, I just wanna say thanks for providing valuable tips, tricks and techniques to the world :)
Thanks for the inspiring and informative interview. Cheers!
awesome interview!
it is obvious you guys have a lot of respect for each other
INSPIRED!
This was absolute gold Graham. Great interview. You are real inspiration for all of us aspiring producers!

This was really cool. Still absorbing it.
Thanks to you both, very interesting, with numerous useful ideas :-) The "better new, than good" approach has me thinking :-)
Thanks for the interview much appreciated
Awesome Graham, thanks!!
Great interview! I LOVE the low end mix trick. It has made a big difference in my mixes. I just did a video on the subject as well!
This is solid gold
Fantastic.
What an inspiring interview!
Another valuable video and awesome interview. I think the part where you guys are talking about taking risks, not worrying about sounding good as much as sounding unique (not cookie-cutter) is GOLD! When Jacquire says that we are all attracted to listen to 'polarised' music that sounds different, not the same, THAT is pure GOLD! In the various 'mixing' communities I tend to hear risk-free cookie cutter style mixing and conversely overly critical of any mix that is different to the norm.
Thanks for making this happen, Graham! :D
So many great people on TH-cam. Such a great time to be alive. I wonder where this is going.
We'll find out, I guess.
so much value, thanks
Amazing interview!!!
Thanks for the interview - Jros.
wow that's cool I mostly start with the kick and then bring in everything else. Fun to know that a pro does it too
Incredible kick drum to bass VU level!! Thank you!
That real-time vs offline bounce thing is potentially game changing!
Great interview! Thank You!
This is awesome!!!!
Dude, thanks. Blew my mind.
Tons of nuggets of information.
Hey friend, dthanks for all the videos.
Thank you Graham!!
great, great, great, great, great...thanks so much
55 seconds in and Im already lovin it
Amazing!!
That Kick/Bass tip is golden!
Very cool content and execution!
Mind Blown!!!!
What a genuinely cool conversation
Committing to a sound philosophy
Live in the moment.
This means that you are alive right at this very moment and not in the future. So you might as well be making it happen when you're alive. And the rest of the process is just finishing up.
Awesome! That bass drum bass adding up to zero db thing is gold. Can you please pass along other "mathematical" approaches to anything mix related. It really helps those of us who aren't experienced enough to trust our ears and those who like a little confirmation.
Jacquire is great !
I enjoyed this, learnt a lot, very inspiring..
super informative! thank you Grahm
This video autoplayed as I’m sitting here comping 40 different guitar takes together. Time to start committing to sounds and takes 👍
great stuff bro
Awesome!
Great interview.
That is soooo cool dude
'unlimited undo', what a great phrase! :)
Learned and Acknowledged in an hour more than I did in a year :)
Hitting Lots Of Key Points🎶💯
great talk :)
Damn this was a sick interview
Straight talk. No mumbo jumbo. No fluff.
I haven't finished this interview yet but it's excellent. I have produced many songs and most of them go unheard as the strategy includes making good tracks but doesn't include pushing them. I used to have a decent soundcloud following... one of my tracks was over 200,000 plays... but then they shut me down for copyright infringement even though I didn't sell anything (for using hip hop samples and acapellas)
i really like this :)
3Db Technique - Thank You!
Thank You for this
