What DAW do you use and do you have any tutorials on mixing. I’m especially interested in the way you approach drum tracks
You really need to put the ReMixing Tips Compendium and other guides you have on OCR up here.
It’s a hassle fishing through the forums to find em. :P
Well, they’re pretty outdated at this point so I’m definitely going to redo them completely – probably in video form!
im a guitarist/composer whos been using FL for about a year now. all my projects had great ideas, but looking at your tutorials has put me in a place where i can professionalize the quality of my music without having to pay for studio time. thanks for all the knowledge, wisdom, and some pretty great music.
