engineers

While searching for information on audio engineering, google highlighted this:

Just signed up, today. Just wanted to reach out and say "hello. is this thing on?" I'm a graduate from Full Sail University (2017), with an Associate's in Audio Production, and I'm also an assistant Audio Engineer at Virginia Beach Recording Arts.

I thought I'd start this thread regarding mixing and fatigue... and while I wrote this to target newer engineers, it contains decent info for us veterans as well.

A fun discussion of what do you think?

1. Put a mix in front of a group of engineers and what do you think will happen, would any of them agree on a mix?
2. Over the last 30 years of successful hits, do you think there would be one mix you would leave alone?

wats up i've been recording a lot lately using pro tools 9 (rap and singing) and i am some what new to the programs as of mixing and adding the right effects to get that crisp clean sound i have a $200 mic and m-audio interface and acoustic foam surrounding the vocal booth. i was wondering what vocal effects or compressors experienced audio engineers use to get that great quality sound.

Hello everyone!

I've searched very long for the right workflow. The resulting workflow can be described not as complete and is constantly evolving. When I look back, as clueless as I worked with Wavelab at First, I must laugh about me - or even ashamed. And maybe I will the current, in turn, smile again.

My band is slated to start recording our first album in a week or so. I plan on recording all the tracks at my home studio using my Roland VS-1824 . We then plan on burning down each track onto CDr's and bringing the lot of them to a pro studio for mixing and mastering where they can dump these data tracks down into their platform (Pro Tools I assume).

*Hey, just thought you guys might wanna read this post from the REAPER site. I've seen a few tests lately, nothing like this though:

Ok, well, I'm a very long time PT user(LE and HD) and the other day MattP insisted I give REAPER a shot. I definitely tortured it all day today on my Quad Opteron rig. Pretty impressive.

As the title of the thread implies, I am just wondering about the whole concept of letting freelance engineers use your studio.

Is this practice very common, and/or is it confined mainly to the larger studios who can afford to "take a hit" (or have people on staff to repair broken eqpt) if some equipment gets broken?

We just finished up a CD(compilation) and we mixed it all ourselves... Pro Tools LE, Digi 002, samplers, keyboards,etc... no live instruments @ all or anyting special, outboard.
