Transforming Demos Into Mixes: 3 Examples

[@phadrus]

Great video. On the third track I have to admit I preferred the band demo, but I tend to like rawer sounding mixes. I’ve enjoyed your unique and VERY clear style to teaching mixing and subbed. Will be watching more of your videos.

Interesting! that was a great group of players to work with, I'll let them know. I appreciate the sub and the kind words :D If I may ask, what about my teaching style did you enjoy? (always hoping to improve) Thanks for your comment!!

Blown away by the segment of demo-rough mix-final mix.. Even made me check your site,lol. Wish there was some pin-point to prices there though, maybe only speaking for myself but would help for people to know if its something they can afford to fantasize about or not,lol. Anyways. great vid and once again...blown away by the mix process..

Thank you so much for your kind words about my work! I was really flattered to read your comment, and it means a lot to me that you enjoyed the transformation my studio can provide.
 I understand your point about not seeing prices on the website. My goal is to offer competitive and affordable pricing while providing top-notch service. 

 In fact, I have the most competitive price for recording time in my city, despite having professional-level gear that other studios charge close to $100 an hour for. Currently, my hourly recording rate is almost half this, and I offer a special day rate for 8 hour sessions.
 On the other hand, for mixing and production work, I believe in connecting with my clients one-on-one to truly understand their vision and find a scope of work that fits their desired sound and available budget. 

 I've found that having one price for mixing doesn't really work as a full pop arrangement has a completely different scope of needs than a simple acoustic singer-songwriter tune. While my team and I can accommodate any project you can throw our way, I price based on the amount of work that needs to be done, so to avoid a disconnect between the target the client has envisioned and the posted price. This is why I encourage potential clients to reach out to get a quote on my mixing services. My prices are designed to give people the top-quality sound they dream of at rates that working-class musicians can actually afford. No funny business, no price gouging-just fair and transparent pricing, as I personally went through similar challenges as an artist and an intern at larger commercial studios.
 If you'd like to learn more or discuss any projects you may be interested in pursuing, I'd love to chat with you. Feel free to contact me at: Robert @ back burner studios dot ca.
 Thanks again for your support and for taking the time to check out my work!
 Best regards,
 Rob

Amazing video. However using the apple mouse makes me so sad. Please use an ergonomic mouse if you are using the computer for hours. Apple mouse is known for cases of carpal tunnel syndrome very quickly, it's shape is horrible. I recommend Logitech Lift for good ergonomics, there is a left and right handed version, I went with the left one.

Interesting suggestion, I've been looking at a trackball for tedious studio work that requires a lot of mousing around. One of the studios I worked at had one. It took a while to get used to but was nice not having to move your wrist so much. I appreciate your comment, Thanks for watching!

i'm using a Lift while reading this comment and i can confirm. this mouse is wonderful for long mixing sessions. and i was developing carpal tunnel with a normal shaped mouse, i can't even IMAGINE working with a magic mouse
