I Mixed & Mastered A Song For My First Client (w/ Mix Rundown)

In this video, I let you know how I got my first client, what has happened and how I have mixed their track with a mix rundown providing transparency, tips and advice. It can be hard to build a clientele due to the oversaturation of mix engineers, but some or most mix engineers struggle to create good mixes. You need to be really good at mixing if you want them to come back to you. If I can do it, you can too. Enjoy the video!

The mix from the last person who did it for them, Night and Day difference when you mixed it. That's an amazing sound. It's punchy, has clarity, it sounds alive. For what you charged, I think that's fair especially for a first client. But its all based off your standards. Great video and great mix Jack. 🤘🤙

[@iamjacktaylor]

It definitely is and the band were pretty impressed with it. I still think I could do better but when I do their next single, it'll get better! 💪 Thank you for watching dude!⭐

[@kalmath_]

Great mix, great sounding. You earned a subscriber :)

[@metalheadblues]

Thanks Jack! Great guy to work with

[@iamjacktaylor]

No worries bro, I appreciate that!

[@TylerGibsonMusic]

Hard work pays off! Congratulations dude! I would love to work with you in the future

[@iamjacktaylor]

It really does despite the hardships of putting yourself out there and building a portfolio, and thank you! If anything, message me on IG :)

Great mix. Charge more for sure. Would love a Thrown guitar tone video!

[@iamjacktaylor]

I will be doing a custom guitar tone video at some point soon, similar to getting that tone!

[@WillHeale]

Such a big improvement! You're 100% going to get more clients after this! 🤘

[@EconID]

Dude! I think it sounds great!

3:24 My earlier comment got deleted for some reason, if the problem is midi conversion from one plugin to another there's a website midi remap just for that.. it converts midi files frome one drum plugin to another keeping the right parts of the kit and all..

[@iamjacktaylor]

I'll try it out and see if that solves the issue. Thank you for the heads up!

[@JokerzWyld]

Love it. Nothing to too overwhelming and we use a lot of the same plug ins. Seeing the soothe come up more and more. Think it might be time to invest myself. Would love to see a mix breakdown of your drop a# dethcore track.

[@8bitzfaster]

Thanks for this, super educational

[@iamjacktaylor]

Appreciate it dude 🫶🏻✨

[@kukukabala]

Been waiting for this one !

[@iamjacktaylor]

More yet to come my dude!

[@HeroesCinema9503]

But i give you 5 stars. u are the best upcoming mixing engineering 🎉🎉

[@iamjacktaylor]

I appreciate it man, thank you! Onto the other comment, it happens allot with bands. I have been thinking that I should carry out a product delivery requirement that I can make using Microsoft word, just so that I can force bands to get it all up to professional standards. Perhaps they just need more guidance I’m willing to help them through.

[@apothecide.2]

That's pretty solid for 50 quid

[@ipoponq]

the vocal could be louder, othewise it's great!

[@iamjacktaylor]

The band told me the same lol. I offered to remix for them though! :)

[@r3ya919]

Ct maure?

[@abdullahkuzhan7247]

Not very well produced/recorded. You did a good job of optimising what you were given though. 10 times better than the previous mix for sure.

[@iamjacktaylor]

Thank you dude! I can be sure that when they have their next single coming, it will be a better produced and recorded piece of music when I at least give them some guidance! :)

[@cheekbone4554]

Charge 2-3x the price bro

[@HeroesCinema9503]

The song Was Bad Produced, you tried your best Mate The band should start listening to Five Finger Death Punch

[@jaystay1514]

EZ Drummer and DI's...that's not a real recording no offense...and that also can't be considered a real mix either....still good exp but it's no where near as if u got some real drums and real amp sounds

[@iamjacktaylor]

It may not be a real recording and a real mix, but it's a possible recording and a possible mix! 😜

[@jaystay1514]

@@iamjacktaylor definetly and it's experience none the less
