I'm mixing stuff in pro tools and I can never seem to come to a stopping point. Normally after the first mix I'll burn a CD and take it home and come back and fix whatever mistakes I pick up on a bunch of different systems. The only problem is that I keep coming back and doing stuff and overproccess everything and in the end the first rough sounds the best.

Everyone, Mix Fest has moved to Mixermans' new forum over at PSW.

let the games begin! ;)

Im just now getting into recording other people other than my friends bands and own projects. The project I'm working on now is a full length LP (yes vinyl... no clue why) for a punk rock band. Everything is recorded and now we're mixing and they want to ruin the whole mix. For some reason they hate mids. They want everything "scooped".

OK, every now and then you run across a know-it-all artist or producer who won't let you mix.

I own a Tascam porta07, its a decent little recorder and being as I am a lo fi nut am using it to record my album. I have figured out how to mixdown to a computer in stereo so I can burn it onto a CD, I just need to know what software(preferable freeware) can record 2 tracks at the same time with one panned left and the other right

Several years ago, A friend of mine who I had previously mixed a record for decided for his next record to buy some gear and do it at home. A familiar scenario huh? Anyway, he called to ask what kind or gear to get, etc. A few months went by and then he called one day and said I'm done recording and I think it's pretty good, let me ask you a question, how do you mix?

I'm having trouble holding this certain mix together. The vox just doesn't seem to sit right, and I seem to be dealing with several pieces instead of a "gestalt" recording.

You can hear the tune so far at

the tune is called Roll ON

Thanks

Jim Holland had a thread over in Craig Andertons forum at musicplayer.com where his song "Waxman" was featured. I felt I would like to try to remix it, mostly coz he boasted many tracks, and that I never had tried anything like that before...

OK, not to be dense here, but who's picking up what in terms of organizing all these mixing groups? I'm confused. I really haven't even had the time to listen to all the candidates what with changing over to Win2k, meeting my first grandchild, etc.

Mixerman : I'm gonna mix "She's the Man "
Sometimes I use to change some sounds of the drums in the mix, with my Pro Stools (kick, snare mainly ), if I decide that this will add some sauce to the mix .
The question is : can we, for example, change the sound of the snare,bd, toms, etc, with Sound Replace,or similar, if we like to ?
