Quick Tip: The World’s Worst Mixing Advice

Posted: 31 Aug 2010 05:00 PM PDT

How do you weed through all the tips and tutorials and decide which one you should follow for your mix? Some advice given isn’t necessarily what you need, since a specific tutorial or trick doesn’t give you the context in which it works.

If you don’t know that a lush 2.3 s hall reverb should be used for slow vocals and decide to try it out for your bass guitar part you are instantly rewarded with a horrible sounding and muddy mix. Not at all what you wanted nor intended when you decided to follow said advice.

That said, here are some of the worst mixing advice you can get. Be sure to not do any of these things and you’ll instantly have a better mix on your hands.

1. Make Your Mix Uneven

All that panning is great isn’t it? You can pan all your drums to one side and they just come out of one speaker all lopsided and groovy. Be sure to have your mix uneven and unbalanced in your left and right master so that you feel like you’re tipping on one side. It’s a great feeling, especially when you’re listening in headphones.

2. Constantly Add More Volume

Add more and more volume to the tracks so that they’re hot and heavy and overloading the master fader. Ending up with a hot mix like this is sure to give your mastering engineer a run for his money as he tries to manage the crazy mix that you’ve made for him.

If your drums start drowning when you’ve added in the other instruments, just push them up and give ‘em more gain! I bet you it’s going to make your clients real happy to listen to a smokin’ hot mix such as this!

3. Use Your Effects to the Extreme

Who doesn’t want extreme effects on every channel. Pile on the chorus, flanger and phaser to make your tracks sound even more interesting.

Better yet, make sure you both add them as inserts and sends so that you can be sure to overload your boring tracks with some cool modulation, wobble and phase. The more effects you got, the better the song must become right?

4. When in Doubt, Add More Lower Mids!

You gotta have a fat mix! In order to compete in the modern mixing world you better start compensating by adding some lower mids to your mixes. Who wants even frequency distribution anyway?!

The best way to find out which mid to add is to scan the 150 – 250 Hz area with a big broad boost until your woofer start vibrating to the extreme. Back off the volume of the speakers a little bit, but be sure to keep your mid boosts as is because that will definitely rock out the dance floor of whatever club you’re bringing your mix to.

Conclusion

So you got these four mixing tips printed out and glued to the wall above your monitor? Because I’m sure, if you follow these tips then your mixes will not only sound insane to everybody who hears them, you might even gain notoriety for breaking the mold and going your own way. And that’s what’s important in the music industry, making waves and doing your own thing!

The Art Of Music Production – Part 2 – Audio Premium

Posted: 31 Aug 2010 01:00 AM PDT

In this week’s Audio Premium content, Bobby Owsinski continues to feed us insights on music production inspired by his new book "The Music Producer's Handbook". In Part 2 we look at the important topic of preproduction.

To learn more about what you get as part of Audio Premium, read this. To take a peek inside this tutorial, hit the jump!

Don’t forget that Premium subscribers can now sign in from right here on Audiotuts+ and download the tutorial by clicking the link above. For other new benefits to Premium members, see the information and screencast at Exciting New Tuts+ Premium Member Updates on the Envato Notes blog.

Secondly, you may have noticed the announcement today that you no longer need to subscribe to Premium to have access to Premium tutorials. You can now purchase them one-by-one, which is quite inexpensive if you’re only after a few tuts.

Back to today’s Premium tut:

In many musician's minds, music production is either some sort of wizardry or overhyped bunk. While it true that either is a possibility, most of the time a producer's job comes down to hard work, experience, some good ears, and a real feel for what makes the music work. This series about music production is based around my new book, The Music Producer's Handbook, where I'll outline some basic production techniques and hopefully remove the vail of mystery from the process. Be aware that we'll be looking at the relationship of a producer with a band or an artist with a backing band or studio musicians. We'll tackle self-production later in the series.

In Part 2, we'll look at the most overlooked, but one of the most crucial parts of production – preproduction.

Introducing the Tuts+ Marketplace – Making Premium Accessible to Everyone

Posted: 30 Aug 2010 08:17 PM PDT

We’ve just launched the Tuts+ Marketplace, where Premium quality tutorials – both from our Tuts+ Premium program and from unaffiliated authors – are available to purchase individually. Our Tuts+ Premium program will still stay exactly the same – you’ll get all the same things, for the same price. But now, non-members will be able to purchase selected Premium tutorials on a one-off basis, without a Premium membership.

Hey! Look for this link!

So far we’ve added nearly half our Premium tutorials to the Tuts+ Marketplace, and will be adding more over time. To find out if a Premium tutorial is available for sale on the Tuts+ Marketplace, look for this link:

Q + A More Information

Here are answers to some of your likely questions about the Tuts+ Marketplace. Please read through these, and if you have any more questions they may be answered in the special edition podcast Introducing the Tuts+ Marketplace (with me and Sean Hodge as a special guests :) hehe). If not, leave a comment!


Listen to the podcast!

QWhat does this mean for Premium members?

That it’s a lot easier to see the value you’re getting as part of Premium. With files on the marketplace priced between $3 and $7, your Premium subscription gives you access to thousands of dollars worth of files for $9 a month. Premium will still work exactly the same and cost the same – so you’ve got nothing to worry about! The marketplace is more for people who aren’t Premium members, and for those who want access to user-submitted tutorials that aren’t available as part of Premium – or anywhere else.

QWhat will be sold on the Tuts+ Marketplace?

We’ve seeded the site with our Tuts+ Premium tutorials, but anyone can submit a tutorial for sale on the Tuts+ Marketplace. If it’s ‘Premium’ quality, it will be accepted. Eventually, the marketplace will be filled with tutorials you can’t find anywhere else.

QWho benefits from the Tuts+ Marketplace?

If you only have time to go through 1 or 2 Premium tutorials a month, or only want to pay for the Premium tutorials you need, the Tuts+ Marketplace is perfect for you. You can purchase tutorials on a one off basis, and files are priced between $3 – $7.

As the marketplace grows, authors will come in from elsewhere to sell their tutorials. There will be high-quality tutorials on the Tuts+ Marketplace that you can’t get anywhere else, so if you love learning from great tutorials, you should keep tabs on the Tuts+ Marketplace.

If you go through lots of Premium tutorials, the Tuts+ Premium subscription is better value for you. The option that’s right for you will depend on your needs.

QWhat categories does the marketplace cover?

We currently host the following categories, and will be expanding our selection over time:

Forums Have your say!

Because the Tuts+ Marketplace is built on our Envato Marketplaces app, we have dedicated Forums. Head on over, sign up for the marketplaces, and tell us what you think of the Tuts+ Marketplace.
