Hey all --

Is there a rule of thumb when mixing kick drums and bass together in a track?

Because since both usually occupy the low frequencies...
Should they both be seperated?

Thanks!

Howdy all,

i'm thinking about getting this book. i have read most of the other commonly recommended ones. this one isn't listed in Recording.org's recommended books list. however, i've heard some really good isolated feedback on it. if it wasn't so expensive, i'd have already bought it. however, i wanted to make sure it's really worth the $70.

Hello, all.

Just a quick question for everyone! :)

Im trying to make sure that my final mixes aren't going into the 'red' on the Master fader in Pro Tools.
( so that i can send it off to be Mastered )...

Hey folks,

Hello everybody.

I think, 24 bit is in anyway better than 16, and i think you would hear a difference betwen

a.) recording 30 tracks with 16 bit, mixing it in 16 bit mode with Pro Tools, bounce the whole mix again 16bit and than master the 16bit bounce

and

Any suggestions as to the best way to Mix Acoustic Guitar-Bongo(1 bongo) and a single vocal track.
Panning etc. .
Thanks,

Dear Pros - please help me out:

We are about to finish off our new studios and install the SL 4056 G/G+. My questions concern two important aspects of this particular equipment: its ergonomics and how they relate to the "history" of pop/rock music mixing/recording. Please forgive my long-windedness and multi-level questions.

Hello,
i started mixing a demo project with Cool Edit 2 yesterday, but here are a few general questions:

how would you pan: 2 drum Overheads, 1 Bass drum, 2 Guitars, 1 Bass-Guitar, 1 Lead vocals, 1 Backing Vocals

And how is it about mixing, does the ready mix have to go to 0db?
Or should i go to about -5db, and get the rest of loudness trough mastering?
