In this episode, we’re going to concentrate on the basics of starting a mix. This is a good thing for beginners but it’s also an amazing discussion point for anybody who’s intermediate or advanced.
For me, the best way to start a mix is to open it up and get the balances and panning right. - So let’s get going.

If I get tracks to mix that I didn't record, one of the first things I do, even before volume and levels, is "track housekeeping," where I name, group, and color the tracks in a way that suits my workflow. I will also created busses and/or VCAs for the groups so that I can easily change levels on multiple tracks globally. During my second pass at volume and levels I like to place markers to identify the sections of the arrangement. Checking the overall levels is important in the beginning as well in order to leave enough headroom for mixing. If I get my kick and snare peaking at -18dBFS after processing I can be pretty confident in that regard. That's my yardstick to get everything else in the ballpark. I generally go drums, bass, lead vocal(s), guitars, keys, etc.

Two things I have loved as I've discovered your channel and binged many, many hours of videos: 1. Even though I've engineered, produced, and mastered hundreds of my own projects over the years, what I know is infinitesimal to what I have yet to learn and always will be. 2. It's also nice that sometimes it helps me see how much I DO know as well and that so many things that are just instinctual auto-pilot knowledge for me are the result of 20 years of experience, studying, experimenting and just doing it, even if I had no idea how to do it "right." Thanks so much for this channel!

I’m still very much learning and finding my own best practices, but what I’ve learned over the last 3-4 songs is this. I’m a composer/producer so I’m always working on my own music soup to nuts, and not somebody else’s, so this is obviously a bit of a difference to yours. I start with a tracking file in Cubase. Get all the scratch vocals, guitars, bass and drum loops written. Then sequence them with the arranger track until I get a layout I’m happy with. Duplicate the file which is now my arrangement project. I’ll track the final vox in context to the full song now. Record overdub guitars where needed. Ad drum fills and other little bits and pieces. I’ll render all the stems out to WAVs and bring them into a mixing project template which has all my eq and compression plugins instantiated and control surface mapping in place. I’m really glad you mentioned baking any FX from the tracks into the stems as I’ve long hummed and hand over this. I’m going to take your advice and give that a shot on my current track. The delay and mod and verbs and even compression added during arrangement are a part of the sound design, so I can see now that they should be treated as such and baked into the mixing stems. I also export all my stems at 0db so all volume faded mixing is done in the mixing project. I don’t like having a backing synth track so quiet with the fader at 0db in the mix. Thanks for another great lesson

Warren. I am an avid listener to your various channels. One thing that would help add clarity to the many videos you have that evaluate “classic” or exceptionally recorded or produced songs/albums would to give some perspective to what type of equipment was used. By this I don’t mean a rundown on whether a Scully, or MCI tape machine was used, but rather was it recorded to… for instance two 4 channel machines , eight channel … ping ponging two eight channels, 24 track, etc. Not only would this help explain technical limitations of the recordings, but in most cases inspire us to achieve the excellence that was attained within the limitations that they worked within. It might give some perspective as to limitations/ effectiveness of use of stereo field, complexity of mix, etc. Keep up the awesome work. Matt Shannon

For me its Best Method too Warren. It is so logical to first make tracks sit on their own space in spectrum. Then I do filtering and eq correction. After that I start to add spices to tracks by sending them to my fx buses. If there is any eq correction needed after fx sends I correct eq again. Thats how I do it

This is the best possible way to begin and continue a mix almost till the end. The application of dynamics and eq comes almost towards the end of it usually. The less the processing, the better the signal to noise ratio. Channel strips are first aid tools for me normally. Side chaining as well makes life easier for both the kick and the bass breathe easy throughout the song even at decent energy levels, keeping a spacious headroom for the final print. Reverb side chaining on send busses as well delivers clarity, especially on vocals, string and wind instruments.

This was very helpful. It really gave me an idea on how to make things stand out without being overpowering. One problem I have with my mixes is that the kick, snare and bass are usually overpowering. Otherwise, when recording my guitars, I'll record one take on two tracks, delete one take, pan both off to their respective sides and record the second take on the track with the deleted take. After that, I begin recording vocals and then I'll do all the volume adjustments.

Hey Warren! I watch your videos all the time whenever I have an issue or just looking for some more knowledge. I can't say how many I've watched but it's a lot, and very beneficial for me. I have always had a question about this particular subject that I’ve been told I should do when starting my mixes. (I use Pro Tools.) I was told to grab a VU meter (I use VUMT by Klanghelm) and clip gain down starting with the bass so it’s not going over zero on the meter, then continuing with the kick, snare, hh, and so on to include pads, piano, gars, and melodies. Mainly because I was told this is how you get your tracks super loud and comparable to current pop, hip-hop songs, etc. nowadays. Also because I was told back when everything was analog that’s how they did it to keep the volume controls closer to zero so there won’t be any unwanted noise if they went too low. Now I don’t know how true that is because I’ve only mixed in the box. Is using the VU and clip gaining down any better than just using volume controls or is it the same and I will get the same results in the end? I’ve been doing my mixes like this for a while now but I’m starting to wonder more about this step because after I use the VU meter I still find myself adjusting the volume knobs as well too. After all, some of the stems I get still take over too much of the track that I don’t need loud. I hope this all makes sense and doesn’t confuse you, I spent about 30 minutes trying to make it less confusing to myself.

I start very much the same way getting it leveled volume and pan wise so I can Lke you said make an informed decision on the steps I take next I love how yo break down your work flow sometimes with a more complicated song its easy to get lost in the complicated parts so starting with the basics is vital As wealso do recording here and not just mixing and my mix sessions are from the recorded sessions I add in gain staging as one of the first steps usng the HoRnEt MKIII plugin saved my butt a couple of times Rarely do I get stereo tracks so I mix mostly in mono so panning alonfg with sidechaining later in the mix session really helps out Again thank you for being so generous with your time and knowledge

Great ! thanks , I set Sw in my new room now I know 1 step further how my new room sounds with good volume levels in a song ^^ panning the bv vocals so it sounds like a bunch of guys are in a room ^^. and panning the drums in from adience perspektive is good to know. ( kick snare to the middle , toms 20 percent right , cymbal 60 left ? ) whatever I look it again when I mix next time. Thanks Warren, right level setting is so important. buildig up the basic skills is so important right.

These videos are soooo helpful!! I watched your mixing basics episodes, and learned a ton! I really appreciate how you provide a rationale for each mixing decision. I have a much better idea of how to make decisions about eq and compression in my own projects. Thank you!!

Warren another great how-to video! I do a lot of live multitrack recording (at gigs and in-studio) with everyone playing together (no overdubs) where there can be a lot of leakage. Could you do a video with some suggestions on how best to prepare and mix these types of recordings? Thank you in advance.

Awesome video. Thank you ever so much, Warren. I guess I tend to do too much too soon.I use to apply EQ and compression to e.g the drums as soon as I balanced them and move then on to the bass and other instruments. This video is an eye opener for me. I try to have the discipline to get a good overall balance and panning at my next mix before I start to do anything else. I'm curious how it will work for me. I think it's a very good approach to follow your example, especially when there's no rough mix available to listen to to get a first impression,

Iv been working from dry out . Dry kit no room or verbs then I try to get that fat tight pocket right and bring stuff up around that and then extend out via space and effects / modulation i find myself panning at the end probably cause I’m doing it wrong 😃 anyway it always ends with paralysis from analysis and on to another mix that I cannot finish 😂 seriously though Warren you have helped me to start finishing these mixes .✌️
