hey man, whenever you do something is so well elaborated and with so much finesse in your work, I admire you a lot, I have started to study mixing engineering, well I try to since I do it reading books and everything I can about the subject, equalization, compression etc., I am very passionate about all this and every time I see you mixing and more when I see that you don't use exotic plugins and the so called best and most expensive plugins it motivates me to study because to do what you do I know that you have to have good knowledge of what you do, sometimes I don't know how to be really good because the books repeat themselves to me, Sometimes I feel a little lost in my search for the high level but I never lose the desire to improve myself, I even read them repeatedly and I do a lot of practice and I see that they are not the complements, it's just me, sometimes a mix that looks good but most of the time it doesn't, it's not working for me, but seeing you mix in reaper and achieve those results with stuck plugins is admirable for me and motivates me more since I never lose and never have lost that. thanks for inspiring

[@PatAutrey]

Okay color me impressed! I guess anytime you see something that you don't know how to do yourself just dazzles. I enjoy this

Jon Will your course work with any genre ? Also did you record all those instruments?

[@TheREAPERBlog]

Hi Harold. Will your course work with any genre ? - there are things to learn about workflow and strategy that work for any genre. The 3rd one has a lot of reaper workflow tips. I didn't record this one, this was for a mixing contest on the reaper forum, but originally I think it's a demonstration by Telefunken microphones.

[@haroldpalmer3245]

One more question, do you do any one on one sessions? If so what are rates.

@@TheREAPERBlog thank you Jon.

[@15bleach51]

Thanks! How did you set such big volume knobs on tracks in arrangement view?

[@TheREAPERBlog]

large layout I believe. depends on the theme

[@AudioplanetPl]

Great video. Do you run into CPU issues when having audio through the folders? I had that and someone proposed I used I separate bus track to sum tracks up and having the folder track just for structure. It certainly solved my CPU weirdness.

[@TheREAPERBlog]

Never had a problem with it that I've noticed.

[@abhidmusic7819]

did you use folders or busses for mixing sir?

[@TheREAPERBlog]

I prefer folders

[@abhidmusic7819]

The REAPER Blog thanks.

Is it financially worth your time to do all that automation processing? I mean if you had all the time you could have to finish the mix I guess it would be alright, but for the most part one would be working on multiple projects, right?

[@TheREAPERBlog]

I spent about 10-12 minutes on automation out of 1.5hrs mixing the song. yes it's worth it.
