Message: [QUOTE="Calc, post: 269124, member: 36080"] What is actually meant by mixdown? Is it exporting to a single wav file, and then import back to Sonar for editing? I've read that normalizing messes up the dynamics of a song. I can then basically normalize all my tunes if needed? You lost me there :shock: I am currently recording a friend of mine that writes very mellow tunes. He has a pretty powerful voice and plays acoustic guitar. I add bass and a tad of electric guitar. For drums I use EZ drummer. As this is my first time recording something like this, I know I will do a lot of things wrong and it will sound like $*^t :p I also do not own decent monitors, and will have to do without for a while.. I try to stay away from effects as much as possible. At the moment I have used a bit of eq and very little reverb..Have not seen the need to use compressors yet.. I will post the tune in the mix critique forum when its done. Thank you very much :) [/QUOTE]
