Complete Mix - Singer/Songwriter in UAD's Luna (with API Console)

This is a song by the artist, Canyon, called "Slow" - recorded live - and I thought it would be interesting to use UAD and API's new console integration to do a simple singer/songwriter mix. I'm really impressed with how fast this implementation makes the mix process. The only additional processing comes from FabFilter's De-Esser, Oeksound's Soothe2, and UA's EMT plate.

This is great 👍 there is a giant lack of acoustic material in mixing videos. I appreciate this a lot.

[@edmundhalley5087]

I just wanted to take a minute to say thank you for your videos. They are fantastic, and explain all the little details that other videos leave me scratching my head about. I’ve recently switched to Luna, and this your channel has been an indispensable resource for me. ❤️

[@owlwoodsouth]

All is well! Hope you are too!

[@daveming1]

What’s your thinking on where the summing engine goes, mix bus or main? But not on both? Thanks!

One thing that’s not crystal clear for me is the difference between gain adjustment like you do (on the track) and the trim level in the « utility » section. Any tip ?

[@owlwoodsouth]

As far as I know they are essentially the same thing. Just two ways of doing the same adjustment. I have always used Clip Gain to do this in Pro Tools and Logic, so it's just out of habit that I adjust the gain on the track instead of in the utility section.

How are you recording your Voice over while mixing?

[@owlwoodsouth]

Just a simple microphone into an Apollo while screen recording.
