BALANCE means = Constantly maintaining listener's interest !
Wooow !! 👍🥇🥇🥇
This was great. Thank you! 🦄
Great advice. You're one of my favorite people to listen to. This helped me out very much to understand about instruments need to back off from others to make your mix better and yet can be blended back later on. So much to learn about carving out a good mix. Thank you for help! 👍
Great insights, especially concerning movement. Thanks!
MOST HONEST PRODUCER,,,!! I RESPECT !
Bless.
Enjoyed this one, very informative and inspiring.
Really cool insight
Love these vids. Keep 'em coming! :)
Long time viewer, first time commenting. Just wanted to take the time to say thank you. Your videos have helped provide insight and impart wisdom on those of us who are still amateurs in the field. There comes a time where it feels like the more you learn the less you know and the more daunting the process seems. Thank you for all of your help. I was wondering if you might do a video explaining in a bit better detail how one would reference mixes against commercial ones? What to pay attention to, certain nuances to pay attention to, illusions one might be wary of. I really appreciate your time effort. Thank you!

Glad our videos have been helpful! Will forward your question to Al and reach out if it gets chosen for #AskAnEngineer!
Can't agree more!👍👍
Music is an art, a science, and above all a branch of philosophy.
Fantastic advice! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
I have plug-in-itis. If a track doesn't sound right, I keep adding more plugins hoping it will eventually sound right, and my EQs look schitzo. I always drop in a reference track and A/B against my mix, but the reference track is already mastered. I end up having to master my mix on landr over and over, comparing the landr master to the reference. That's really tedious. Learning to mix via youtube is challenging. I wish landr would let us subscribers have a plug-in version of their mastering process. I don't mind it being an additional fee.
There's a VST plugin that has a free version ($45 paid)called You Lean Loudness Meter 2. It has the reference levels for pretty much all common music, TV, Gaming, Film, TH-cam, Spotify, etc... and also gives the reference levels for different countries. Always remember less is more. Plugins also can change the mix levels and EQ. This can cause more level and balancing issue then results gotten. Also, these sites compress your signal for there reference level which can also change your mix results. Peace

Thanks for this
No problem
I had to subscribe after this. Thanks
Thanks :)

Great ideas thank you.
You are so welcome!
If I become famous producer in future I have to work with lander 😍😂😂
Love this guy! (Al Isler)
I do have one question! Do any of you use stereo spread plug ins? If so, where and why?
I don't. Many/most of the instruments already have some stereo component, so it's just a matter of choosing where to put them in the stereo field. Adding a spread plug-in on a track is just another effect, so if it sounds good to you, that's all that matters.
Working on a mix right now. Thanks for the advice especially the zen part 😀
thank you :)
You're welcome!
I’ve been trying to figure this out. But basically, when I mix in my headphones (some consumer headphones) the mix sounds amazing but once I play it back in ANY OTHER systems it sounds like the track is being limited when the kick come in. Is the issue the headphones? Should I purchase mixing headphones ? I need help 😭🙏🏼
I have ath m40x. Good headphones for everything
Headphones gives sounds different than monitors. Check eq settings from internet for you headphone to make it like A monitor.

LANDR How is mixing in mono effective when completing a mix? Or may it not be?
@@jamesh2384 Thanks for the question. Will pass it on!
Please talk a little about vocals in the mix
In my opinion this isn‘t actually a ‚how to‘. It´s more like an metaphysical abstract. Interesting to watch but not very helpful when you want to fix a specific balancing issue.
mmhmm
Is there a way to make mixing less tedious? LOL.
Thanks for the question! Will forward it to all!
Hey! Good news. Your question was chosen for #AskAnEngineer. We'll be posting the answer tomorrow on our TH-cam channel and IG. Can you share your Instagram handle with us?
