Signs of an Amateur Mix

[@sambraddy1957]

Great stuff! the part about having a reference can solve so many problems I've learned. Without a reference its like your driving with a blindfold on

[@inswainaudio]

Yup! I love that analogy too! I definitely went way to long before I realized the true power of references!

[@eckto7504]

This is super insightful thank you so much

[@inswainaudio]

Glad you got something from it! Thank you!

[@vektacular]

Cool, you use Logic like a smart man!!

[@inswainaudio]

Haha Logic gang!!!

[@vektacular]

I actually don’t mind a mix I’m mastering to have a little less bass and too much vocal (sometimes) then I can gain bass and the vocal doesn’t get lost….i would almost have this be the preferred mix to receive

[@inswainaudio]

Yeah, that's totally true! This was mostly aimed towards mix engineers to help them get the "perfect" mix before mastering because I know as a mix engineer myself I love to know what the master engineers thoughts are! Thank you!

[@vektacular]

[@inswainaudio]

2:38 so tame impala broke that rule ddd

[@inswainaudio]

Haha well "too much" reverb is subjective, I'm sure what they did/do is completely intentional! Good point though, their mixes are next level!

[@OldRody]

[@inswainaudio]
