This is exactly what's killing any form of art and creativity in the industry. This is why there will never be albums/cd's/downloads that sound as good, or are as mixed as well as those of the past. It's become a cookie cutter, crank it out as fast as possible, compress the utter life out of it world of stale, lifeless, and unoriginal music. While I'm sure he's technically "right" about it being the way to stay happily employed, it's dead wrong for the music industry as a whole, and what used to be an art of mixing.

When he challenges "spending 8 hours mixing drums" I'm almost certain he means electronic drums (usually that's like 4 highly polished channels with no acoustic or level variations) as opposed to mixing recorded drums, which can include input engineering of finding the right sound in the room and how to mic the drums in the first place, doing some sample takes, doing some front end engineering, doing some editing, splicing, and possibly drum replacement, and only then getting to the point where you can start mixing them into the track.
@jas_bataille
3 жыл бұрын
He said specifically "mixing drums"... not recording them and so on. He's a mixing engineer, which means he's only doing the mix. Besides, a well-recorded acoustic kit is very easy to mix, and usually requires less work than electronic drums which sound you need to carve and modify a lot with EQ to get it right.

@@jas_bataille, I have been to quite a few studios, and know a lot of engineers and I don't think any of them would agree with this generalization. If you have drums recorded at a top notch studio by a top notch studio drummer, it still takes substantially more work to mix than electronic drums

Agree about the drums IF they are super simple like the example in most pop tunes/the Cardi tune he is working on. Anything with live room tracked drum where there are possibly phase issues etc. Or if its something like Sophie/Grimes/Aphex Twin stuff with crazy composed drums it is gonna take more time than 30 min. it just is. I appreciate his stance if you wanna maintain well paying gigs in the pop world circa 2019. However it is just not applicable to all situations.
@zachary963

True, but it still shouldn’t be taking 8 hours. What I do to maximize my efficiency on drums is send each track to a subbuss, so I have one subbuss for all the kick mics, one for all the snares, etc. Then I go through the individual instruments and make sure there’s no phase issues, ie the kick in and kick out mics. Once the individual tracks are in phase, I do the same thing with the entire kit, and then check phase with the other instruments. Honestly, depending on the kit, that might take up to 30 minutes. After that, it becomes just eqing and compressing the different subbusses. That definitely shouldn’t be taking 8 hours or whatever. Maybe 2 if it’s crazy complex, but if you’re treating the kit as a single instrument instead of a million little tracks, it goes faster, at least for me. Also, if the recording engineer knows what she’s doing, then the only phase issues that would need fixing are the bass guitar lol.

@@davidpearson6346 I work out of a studio on occasion but it's a digital console. In that case you're right it is more of a controller for sure. I personally find it easier to mix on a console when you have physical faders instead of scrolling around your digital mixer. It's a lot more of an intuitive feel and you can focus more on listening as opposed to making small movements with the mouse. With great software modelling like that of Steven Slate and Waves etc, using a console for sound is pretty irrelevant. I know a lot of people say that consoles sound better/different, but several double blind tests show that even engineers can't tell the difference between the console and it's modelled software counterpart.
