Create a “master” bus for all of the instrumentals and a bus for all of the vocal tracks. Then mix with a limiter on the actual main output. This allows top down mixers to treat the sum of the instrumentals and the sum of the vocals differently. When it come time to send the mix out for mastering you can simply turn down the volume until nothing is being trimmed by the limiter. Also really helps if you decide to release instrumental versions of the songs.

Hey Anita, de-essers have become such an invaluable tool for me! They solve so much more issues than just vocal esses. Sometimes I even use them (side-chained) on a bass to let the low-end breathe a bit when the kick hits (the de-esser set to the fundamental frequency of the kick in that case, or just low-shelving or something).

I loved the saturation tip! The one big thing I've learned this year is that many of the things that used to be considered 'wrong' are actually what makes the best songs sound right. If somebody would have told me a year ago that adding distortion to something that already sounds crystal clear and clean would make it sound better I would have thought they were nuts (despite the fact that I've been striving for distortion on my guitar since I was 15 :-) )

One of my favorite mixing tips is taking a dry signal and pumping it through sizable speakers into a hallway or large room, walking around the space to find the sweet spots, throwing up mics, and recording for a verb/room track to go alongside the dry signal. Drums, guitars, vocals... it works on everything and really gives a unique timbre to the mix!

I discovered the De-ess trick just this year when I had a stereo drum part recorded on a Roland E-kit with a 16th note high-hat part that was just too harsh and overwhelming. Since it was a stereo mix I couldn't do anything to just the high hat, and tried all kinds of EQ, compression, anything I could think of. Eventually it dawned on me to try a de-esser and that did the trick perfectly!

I once had a mixing session with a singer/songwriter. As we were mixing analogue, I had only one de-esser. Since he sang damn good but insisted on recording his acoustic via the piezo pickup. I used the de-esser on the guitar and got rid of the papery quality these pickups produce. Used this trick ever since. Right now I'm working on a rock production with quite some crappy drum recording. I will try some of these ideas, they might rescue me, so thanks for this awesome video.

These are all great tips I have mostly never heard about or tried. The first 3 are interesting and something I will have to give a shot. I have done 4 and 5 unintentionally just messing around trying to get the sounds I wanted; never the less, great advice! Something I have done on all my recent mixes is use the softube tape plugin on my master buss. The crosstalk and high frequency control in particular, in conjunction with the saturation of the tape emulation. I find the crosstalk really widens a mix out while at the same time giving a "smearing" feeling to the sounds where everything runs into each other nicely without muddying things up. It's hard to describe but sounds great. It really helps the verbs and delays in particular gel with the dry sounds better in my opinion. The High frequency control is really cool too. I roll it back one notch which dampens all the high end by a few db (probalby like 1 db or 1.5 db) from what sounds like about 10khz and up. When I master or before sending to a client I use the maag 4 channel eq to boost 40khz with air and I find that together it has a sort of de-essing effect that controls without eliminating any errant sibilance, fizz, or other weird thing in the high end while keeping all the air. It feels like a super bright mix without actually being super bright and then hurting the ears or being fatiguing.
@ChrisDN

Two of the most recent tricks I've been using: 1) Dynamic EQ for deessing to allow for multiple points and control over the curve. 2) A compressor with mid-side AND parallel for boost+width with a single bypass automation for choruses.

Is Protools recording at half speed and then time stretching it to fit the track? So there will be some quality loss? TIP:: Find a part you are struggling to eq to fit in the mix. Take a couple measures of that track and reverse it. Play that part in reverse while the rest of the track is playing and you can really hear what you are Eqing much better. Reverse the part back to normal and you may surprise yourself. Great video btw!!!

Off subject a bit but here's what I do to thicken up vocals: I send my vocal to another buss, put a pitch corrector ( ReaTune, in Reaper, for example) and set it to maximum or near maximum correction (think Cher and that song she did ages ago). Then I put a stereo simulator on that buss to widen it up. I mix the original vocal with the pitch-corrected stereo-simulated vocal and it's huge. Then I can send the "treated" buss to the reverb or delay send for some really spot-in-tune reverb. It also gives a sort of phase effect due to the differences in pitch between the two tracks. Sometimes I'll throw some high-pass EQ, saturation or (why not ?) a leslie simulator on it. MDA leslie, for example. It can get pretty overwhelming if you mix in too much of the treated buss signal but, used with discretion, it's great. Works great for background vocals as well though you start getting a whole bunch of tracks to mix.

I've used saturation on acoustic and in fact this is a personal favorite for making up for crappy sounding piezo pickups and/or ugly sounding preamps when I've been I trusted with live performance tracks and re-cutting is not an option. I however have NOT tried saturation on cymbals, overheads or rooms. Nor have I tried or even thought of playing my tracks back at half speed. Furthermore, I am in the midst of writing a new song and there's a particularly finger twisting lick on the change that will benefit greatly from recording at half speed!

You're right, half-speed recording is rarely used! VSO in the digital world! Fun fact -- 80% of the production of Fleetwood Mac's "Tango in the Night" from 1987 heavily used this technique at various speeds. Most of the hooky parts sound like they were recorded on a synth / Fairlight, but they're actually multi-layered guitars using various speeds on a VSO to achieve this weird harmonic effect. I LOVE artists who use strange techniques to achieve sound! *Subscribed*

Produce Like A Pro - Loved the video. Your anecdote about the high frequency brings me to my question, though it's a bit abstruse... Tonight I was using a plug-in I just bought recommended by a "real pro," (seems like he really is and a nice guy). It's the CLA-3A plug-in. I put in on a guitar group track, controlling 3 guitar parts, 2 audio, one midi. Also in the track is a trumpet which is quite important. Incredibly, when I use the plug in on the guitar group, it cuts the volume of a trumpet track. The piece has forty tracks. Of course with so many, it's hard to carve out a pan position for the trumpet that isn't shared by other mix elements. So, to fix this problem I panned the trumpet to a place trumpets don't usually go, lol. Seems to restore the volume of the trumpet. My question - does this sound like a software bug, or a panning issue to you?

It's really interesting that you describe that first high tone as being 'buried in the mix', shows a good example of (I presume) natural age-related high-frequency loss - Something that's worried me for a long time. Comforting to know that you don't have to stay at child-like 20k hearing levels to make good records. I'm beginning to struggle to hear above 17k in one ear and 15k in the other, but I find that swapping L and R regularly helps balance things out. Thanks for the video!

Varispeed can be useful to go in both directions. Some things are actually too slow to play well (or maybe you don't have a bass guitar?), but if you can play it double speed and an octave high... The thing to remember is that the cutoff of the guitar's integral filter is going to slide along with the notes. Humbuckers an octave up will tend to sound more like single coils, and SCs an octave down can almost approximate a humbucker. If you're running SCs an octave up, though, that resonant peak can end up in a really ugly spot, and you can often get better results by "rebuilding" the pickup filter with some resonant low pass where we'd generally expect it to be (like 5K, and before any other processing, amps, or anything). Unfortunately, there's not much we can do if we shift downward, though. You could try to win back that extra octave with EQ, but that's probably going to be more noise than useful signal. It's best in those cases to just start with the brightest setting you can get - often a parallel combination of coils - so that it ends up less dark.

Hi warren, I wondered if you could make a video on recording with an electric drum kit, thanks

that would be interesting jack ....i have often thought about using my E kit- kick , toms and using my real snare- and cymbals .....as i find the cymbals and snare are often a bit sterile to my ears ...so i have not tried it yet ...but i am hoping for good results

Could you use it to trigger midi instead?

Michael Seymour - I mix a radio program every week that uses an electronic kit - using Slate Trigger 2, saturation on the cymbals, and a good “live room” reverb really help!
