Sean sent me a PM and asked me if I might take shot at explaining Parallel Compression ( from here on out, we'll refer to this as PC, and not as a refernce to my esteemed colleague PC/ Marco. ;) ). Sean thought that perhaps those who are newer - or more novice mixers - might benefit from an explanation.

Hi All -

Really proud of this one. The song - and the recording. 100% in the box - -- in my danged living room.

Sometimes I really dig what technology let's me do.

Thanks for listening. Hope you dig it!

Here is a little something I jus sat down and did in a evening. Nothing I put a lot into. I am jus wondering if my mixing is sounding okay or if you all have any advice for future reference.

Hi everyone,

Would you mind having a listen to my mix and telling me what you think? One of my first full band mixes, so any advice would be hugely appreciated!

Thanks!
Ben

I know this has been covered here on RO in a previous thread "How Do You Mix?", but I thought it would be an interesting discussion to have again as the previous thread dates from 2001.

It would be interesting to hear from members on their style of mixing and the different techniques we use.

Hi All -

Just wanted to share my version of Over The Rainbow. Hope you dig it!

Peace People!
 

Here's another song for what I'm calling my "New Classic Rock," CD called "In the Moonlight". LMKWYT of this mix.
The higher numbered track is the most recent mix.

Here's something I'm working on for fun. I'm pretty happy with where the mix is going but certainly open to critique. Used an XLR split from the house mics plus a few mics of my own to my GB2R/HD24 setup.

Mixed and mastered at home on my 5.1 system, though mostly in 2.1 mode.

(Beware the F-bomb at the start if you're at work or whatever.)
