Seriously? I guess I'll have to check it out... Last album I bought was Koi No Yokan. Got to meet them all at the grand opening of a Zia Records in Phoenix, or at least shake their hands and say hi.

I'm Deftones fan since the 90s. The previous couple of albums were honestly a bit shallow. I was excited to hear they work again with Terry Data, and now the new record is released and WHOA

What is it about being bass player
...that helps to be a great mixer?
Bob Clearmountain, Andy Wallace, and, of course, weedy, are all bass players.

No, but they all sort of work as band names. But John would point out that "X" is already in use. Are you publishing a paper? Give me more details and I can come up with a good English title. If it's just for your reference, treat it like labeling a track; You're the only one who needs to...

Just to narrow down on the culprit, can you install REAPER (simply download installation file and it starts a demo) and see whether it works with your plugins?

Re: Mixing multiple projects at the same time
But I'll also add: if a band has a production vision that can lead you to a better mix, then by all means let them do it. You just need to know if/when you will have to translate 'their terms' into actual mix decisions. Yes, the tricky part. I'm well underway on one project and it seems to proceed ...

Yes, while it may be absurd, and of course I won't try to distort clarinet, but if I listen to something for a long time, it starts to sound "right" and I need some time to refresh my hearing. I have learned I need to take breaks every hour or so when working on something for this very re...

Thank you, nobby and weedywet for comments!

Mixing multiple projects at the same time
In this day and age of instant recalls, mixing over the Internet and multiple revisions it is not uncommon to jump between projects. This is certainly not new to me, too. Though to have to start mixing two big projects at once is not something that had happened to me too often. Usually, I am working...

Re: When A Band's References Don't Fit...
Actually, I learned that the band's ideas as awkward as what they may seem can be "right". And also you don't have to treat references literally, what they after can be an overall vibe, not the exact sound.

I am not the defender of smashing the life out of music, but you asked to nitpick, no? :cool: So... I don't really get the metric. Why multiply by the number of years? This already will skew things in favor of older records. There is a hypothesis that the reduction of the dynamic range contributes t...
Re: CLAMixHub
OK, so I made a layout where I added all the EQ controls of a channelstrip I use to the track panel, and from that viewpoint, you saved me $69, as it worked quite nicely.
OTOH as an SSL channelstrip it is really nice, certainly better than the old model.
The Mic control is also interesting.

Here's 21 knobs and long-ass faders (27" Retina display though...) https://i.imgur.com/gppyE1a.png This looks nice. I have to experiment with layouts. I have a mixer window which is set up similarly, but the sends take some place as well. I use this as a controller. They're dirt cheap: https:/...
