Ok! So you have all of your tracking done… and you simply don’t know where to begin when it comes to mixing and blending all of this stuff together! I admit, it can be a very overwhelming task when you observe it as a whole. Just dealing with all of these sounds and trying to come up with an end result that sounds listenable seems difficult indeed. The key to successful mixing, though, is much like the key to completing any complex task; it must be done in steps, and with great care.
So where do you start? That’s a fair question indeed if you’re to begin the whole process. Where I begin, though, is making sure everything is in order. Basically do a quick scan through your mix, see that tracks appear to be in stable condition, and nothing is out of place. This shouldn’t take too long, as you’re basically looking for anything that seems odd in your workstation.
To begin your mix, you must understand some key points first. Your mix is somewhat like a three dimensional space in which you place the building blocks of your track. Each individual piece stacks on the other to create a final, whole product. And just as in architectural design, your “building blocksâ€
