What tutorial do you want?

outbound · Post by **outbound** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 8:36 am

For anybody who's noticed I've had a tutorial series going for a couple of months now covering the basics of mixing with things like drums, bass, eq'ing etc. I was just wondering what else people are interested in? what would help your mixes out the most? Can you think of anything that you wish there was a tutorial for but isn't?

Let me know, I'm brainstorming ideas for the next instalment

edit: if we could keep this just for mixdown. Song-writing, synthesis etc are important but this is simply a series for mixdown tips.

id like to see some things on parallel prosessing like compression and even distortion or whatever you like. more specifically how much of the compressed or wet signal you like to mix with the dry whether it be drums or bass etc. would also like to see some resampling. im always curious to see what other people do each bounce.

Watching people work on a song and explain what theyre doing is best for me.

Reverb please. I'm not sure if it's the Ableton standard reverb I use, or my skills, but I need more lush reverb. Yesterday when I was making a track, I had some low-mid verb that sounded nice with no low end or too much high end, but it still sounded almost distorted? I need help.

So looking like we're leaning closer to reverb here...

What's to learn about reverb? Seems like one of the more straightforward effects to me....

Reverb isn't talked about much - or at least I don't know much about it. I use size, and decay, and lowpass/highpassing. I use verb on sends and actual tracks but a tutorial on Reverb would be nice, definitely better than compression.

Monitoring?

As in peakmeters, spectrometers, intersample peak meters, the role of headphones in a mix, the value of using different speakers, checking in mono etc.

That would be gold.

Reverb. I think a lot of us use it without knowing how to really use it. Between selecting plugins and how to use them once we've got them, this could be some wonderful advice. I've got the Waves bundle, which I've been told is great. Trouble is, I can't seem to get great sounds out of the reverb unless i'm using it on a voice. I'd love to see a tutorial on proper reverb.

more than just reverb i would really like to see how you go about creating depth and space in a mix, with all that that entails, i.e volume, panning, eq, reveb and delay..etc.
It would be great to see a tune have those effects added to it one by one, with a quick explanation of why you are adding each one.

The 3-D front to back depth is one of the things i struggle with.

One on transition techniques would be cool too.
