    How do you use automation and transitions in your mixes? Please share below!

    • @patkelly8309
      @patkelly8309 10 місяців тому +1

      I use basic automation within my mix down stage, Volume, Panning, maybe some filtering but as a Dub producer who tries to use the Mixing board as a live, expressive instrument it's a bit of a No-no.

    • @MaPa60
      @MaPa60 10 місяців тому +3

      Great tips, amazing so many strategies you can apply! One of my automations are to slightly unbalance the mix, pushing small things that I think sounds great. Sometimes musicians are too disciplined and that can sound boring, so I like to poke them out a bit.

    Gained some great new perspective here! This really highlighted for me the creative aspects of mixing as opposed to the largely analytical approach.
    After all of the great advice pertaining to the process, which is equally important, as a writer first, I now see how mixing can be just as fun. This also solved a lot of issues I’m having with a few of my current mixes. Wealth of information here.
    Thank you 💯🙏🏿

    @fivebyfivesound 10 місяців тому +4

    I mostly use automation to designate and maintain focal points, create energetic shifts and widen/narrow the stereo field. But after this video I have several more ideas, including automating some effects sends and side chains to manipulate sense of depth and height. Super helpful having concepts so clearly illustrated. Thank you!
    I feel like I’m in a secret club of a few hundred mixer/engineer folks who know how great Sara Carter’s videos are. Every single one I’ve digested has helped my mixing/perspective on mixing and production. Grateful 🙏🏽

    These are all excellent good practice functions that everyone can incorporate into a mix to add some interest.
    When it comes to EDM, everything needs like it needs to be upfront and in your face all the time. Are there any tips to keep things interesting without adding more layers or complexity?

      @SaraCarterSimplyMixing 10 місяців тому +1

      Keeping in mind the focal element at all times will help. You may have to pull a Db or two out of supporting elements to facilitate that. Then there are tips like side chaining, mid-side EQ etc
