Music Mix Tips: Aux Tracks! Initial Steps Mixing a Song, Pt 2

[@brentwheeler2087]

Some very cool ideas here. I like the idea of feeding tracks into the Aux track with reverb type effects - yes I can see how this provides "glue" and integrates the sounds (lots of people go on about "glue" in a meaningless drivel fashion)..... thanks again. Always grateful to learn from your knowledge !!

Thanks! Yeah, I remember wondering what *exactly* people meant by "glue," and a lot of the time people don't really explain it. It's hard to describe audio sometimes, but I hope it made some sense! Nice hearing from you!

Cato, as a songwriter, I’ve been making demos for almost 40 years, completely self-taught. Started with a 4 track multi, and ten years ago got into ProTools12. I was obviously familiar with digital (ADAT, AKIA DPS24) but PT was a whole new ballgame, - a lot of hit and miss. After ten years with PT, I am amazed at how much I still don’t know, even on a basic level. Sometimes I’ll following along saying “Great, got it. I’m with her.” Then other times I go “S**t, I didn’t know that.” I learn something new all the time. Keep up the great work. BTW, I’ve done the fader dance in the studio. I’m with you on the automation thing.

Awesome! Haha, I know the feeling with finding new things - I'm always amazed too! Anyway, thanks for hanging out!
