Description
When recording and editing processes are finished, audio engineers can take an advantage of the training in Pro Tools 8: mixing and mastering to punch up the final output. Digidesign Certified Expert Brian White covers all the basic mixing tools that every producer and engineer should know, starting from using EQ to adding clarity and focuses on using compression and limiting to maximize track levels within a mix.
Brian emphasizes the importance of setting up a solid mixing plan prior to any work in Pro Tools and gives a piece of advice on the best plug-ins for each stage of the process.
Topics include:
* Using the Pro Tools Creative Collection to add clarity, punch, width, and depth to a mix;
* Recording real-time automation moves for future replication;
* Building healthy and profitable mixing habits when putting a final mix together;
* Knowing when to process the audio of a track;
* Using saturation effects to capture that "analog" sound;
* Working with limiting and multiband compression during the mastering process;
* Dealing with plug-in delay and latency in a mix.
