I just started mixing this guitar intro for a song I'm working on. I recorded this on my PreSonus Firepod, with a Neumann TLM 103 on the guitar itself, and a Blue Spark mic on the amp in another room. I'm pretty new to mixing and I don't really know where to go from here, I'd love to get some pointers on how to make it sound better, richer, and clearer.

Hey ya'll, so i've been recording music for the last 7 years; and i'm still frustrated trying to get that mix to sound "professional"; i honestly dont know what i'm suppose to be looking for when mixing down certain pieces of a song, i just figure whatever sounds "good". :||||

so, here's the question:
how do you know what sounds good?

woah right?

Anyone out there advise the best way to make a hole for Female vocals in a mix with Guitars, and Piano being the other main mid range instruments that will clash. What is the best way of doing this and if cutting on the other instruments, what frequency and by how much..

Cheers

Today, I gave an instructional speech for beginners on the basics of mixing professional audio for a record release. I've uploaded the reference materials in a zip file and posted them to DropBox.

Hi Folks,

I know peeps here aren't HUGE into Adobe Audition, but I use CS6 and love it. Just wondering if any of you could throw some tips/tricks my way on what kind of mixing techniques or effects you use on snare/bass/overhead condenser for symbols, etc.

Thanks in advance!

Hey people.

This is a pretty cool video on vocal compression, de-essing, EQ including some discussion on the business.

So I just finished mixing my record and am gonna start shopping around to get it mastered.

I've currently got this chain on the end of my mix
Waves NLS > EQ for mids > EQ for highs > Waves NLS > Cytomic Glue Compressor >Audio Damage ADverb >
MidSide EQ > Waves NLS > SSL Compressor > Waves L2 Ultramaximizer

Hey everyone I'm mixing a CD for a client and in his Chorus' or "hooks" there is a lot of vocal layers going on, and i'm having a hell of a time making them sit right. Anybody have any tips or suggestions on how to handle this? There's typically 4 main parts on the hook plus 2 emphasis tracks and then 2 adlib tracks all together.
