Don't send the whole final mix to the client before he pays... 👻💸
Shid they only get video clips until they pay or at least pay a deposit.
Faaaaaaaaccccctttssss
Spot on dude! "What problem are you trying to solve?" Great gear purchasing question.
Analysis paralysis... new word. I like it.
Damn bro just almost finished the video. Thank you for really caring about what you’re teaching us! I don’t think theres a better teacher out there. Appreciate all you teaching me. Every Mixer or engineer I’ve found on here is always making it about selling me something and its all based around what they are selling but I’m grateful that you put the teaching and care of us First! and then put the selling secondary. Many “teachers” need to learn your style. Congrats on all your success Wayne. And thanks again for all your help!
Thank you fam.
mans with the best intro's no cap
im at full sail now! appreciate the supplemental material!!! big help!!
Respect Wavy
Yessuh
@@waynewav you’re one of the BEST. Thank you. I appreciate you.
Looks like Wavy Wayne finally got his SECOND SCREEN MONITOR!! Good for you Wayne
Ngl, da A7Vs and A7Xs in da back shining bruh
Theses are some jewels. Thanks Wavy
Signal flow hit different. Amazing video. I don’t care how well versed you are sometimes you need a reminder.
Great video. I can tell you are a proud Full Sail alumni. Another amateur mistake is don't get to complacent with you mixing. Every song deserves a different treatment. Again great video Wayne!
This was encouraging Chief
First time listener to your channel and new subscriber. Great video!!! Thank you.
man i only got 1 tip. mix for your artist. if your artist has a vision, mix so u fit that vision. there are no rules to this shit. people think having ultra clean mixes is always ideal but its not. rock music is a great example, like u can rly make that shit sound however u want. just satisfy your client
It's the clear n perfect teaching
Great content. Will put to use. Thanks!
Thanks for all your helpful advice. I will keep them all in mind, especially since I'm working solo.
Thx bro ... "butt naked room" ... had me rollin' from jump. Authentic "passionate" experience totally translates in your instructive delivery! Oh & that Mix Bus Image w/descriptive breakdown ... Love it!!
Thank you fam!
Big respect for all the tips.
No doubt fam!
Thanks bro God used to talk to me today stay bless Shalom
Brilliant, clear advice, Wavy. Learning a lot through this.
Spot on man!👍🙏...you touched briefly on frequency which I'd love to hear you get more in depth on, perhaps ear fatigue as well. I've found that most cases of excessive clipping, distortion and frequency clashes are the product of trying to get that mix slapping but your ears are so blown out after 4-5-6 hrs of messing around in loopland that it's nearly impossible to distinguish saturation from clipping.
Hey my man! Just subbed.
Love from India 👑
I feel attacked 😂😂 I emailed you to help me and than I read my manual on my audio interface and solved the problem 😂😂
I really wish I would have found you a long time ago. I've been semi-pro for a while and this shit would have saved me a ton of money and time.
Hey Wayne! I didn't know you went to Full Sail! So cool. I live in Orlando... I've hung out there, and worked for years. We've probably passed by each other. Thanks for this video! Hope all is well
Thanxz Wavy, I had no idea what sub chaining was, and stacking plugins on tracks until you blessed. So again, much appreciated.🥶🤟🏽
Ive had wayne mix one of my songs. He is very good at what he does, a true professional.
Thanks Rob
Thank you Wavy. Your templates changed my productions🙏🏾
Thank you! Happy to help!
which one did you get?
4:35 LUNA is the exception, you can control Unison Preamps within LUNA
thanks a lot man 👌... i do have like 3 to 4 tracks were i am mixing now ... is in a way really really intense and at some point it drives me crazy af !! but yeah , you have a point with the reverb , makes a lot of sense ... great video 💥
Right on fam!
"You know it ain't right!" LOL! Facts! 🤣🤣🤣
purchase for creativity no for problems
Great video brother. Truly appreciate you sharing what you had to learn and pay for cause I know how much FS cost..lol. but I used to put my FX on a send but I found myself liking the sound of putting it directly on the channel strip lately but only reverbs. I have to say if someone like you don't do that then I'll def have to re-think that now.
Thanks fam!
Yep I am guilty of doing at least 2 or 3 of them in the past… over kill on equipment, not getting started on projects and not spending as much time reading equipment manuals or I jump to a different piece of gear before mastering the last piece… started taking some pro duction classes at Berklee the course work has up my game on all levels, expensive but worth it . they really make you learn your stuff.
Knowing your stuff makes you more creative.
Such good advice all in one vid - thanks Wavy!
The problem I need to solve is that new gear looks fun. The only way to solve that problem is to get new gear. lol Gear is addictive.
Good lines bro
Love your videos! They are really helpful!
Salute wavy
As precise as it gets💯👊
How do you learn, not making mistakes?
Originality comes from lessons we learn, no, not you tube... but real life experience.
Dope video
While Wavy Wayne is Certified and a graduate from Full Sail University. His focus and energy is into his brand, youtube, and role as a public figure. Learning techniques from someone who isn't in the studio day in and day out is what's wrong with youtube teachings. His site doesn't showcase any of his mixes. There's mentions of credits but no sections dedicated to those credits. Full sail is a great school with a lot of opportunities, but they also birth these socialites who just end up using the schools clout to become public figures. There's a difference between pro tools operators who create youtube videos and audio enginners who make a living audio engineering....
very good points
I think another beginner mistake people make is placing too many effects on their vocal chain without making sure the vocal itself is clean first. It's like trying to put cologne on after the gym without having taken a shower. Flangers, doublers, fancy filters and all that is cool but not when it's on a dull, lifeless vocal mix.
Good stuff !!!!!!
Good s*** bro. I'm guilty of some of these things. This is truly helpful
Not making template session is a mistake a lot of people i know don't do.
+ another good final test:

One mistake: on the wrong side of a microphone like an AKG220
Wow. Definitely been there too. Good one!
Is it bad to say I mix my songs in the car. I usually take my laptop to the car. Hook the laptop to the radio with the auxiliary cord and mix in there. When I do that my mixes be sounding good everywhere from earbuds to club speakers. For years I been doing this.
So you said don't put the effects directly on the tracks, is that the same as putting them on the channels?
Dope videos learned a lot from here ! I was wondering about the clipping part if you have a compressor on the recording track to help prevent clipping is that okay ? Or I’m I better off lowering the level on the mic . I use the compressor just incase someone starts getting loud in the middle of the verse or things like that
Good lookin on all the work you put out💪🏽
time stamps would be nice
when the artist gets in the booth and moves the pop filter closer to the mic 🤦♂
That’s what I’m sayin
Also never mix high or drunk
This is some good shit
Crap, I have all these problems (except the multiple playback options).
Yo Wavy……Quick question…..I will eventually be swapping out my IMac with the M1 Max MB Pro as my main studio computer. I have the Apollo X6 as well. Will the Caldigit TS4 Thunderbolt dock handle to Apollo if I connect it to the TS4? Or do you recommend another type of Thunderbolt dock for the X6?
Thoughts on full sail
Wow that’s a loaded question. Lol. As with anything you get out what you put in. I could go into more detail another time.
Wait a second…we’re supposed to make money and not just blow it all?????? 😂
First comment
Where can I send my music ,so you can mix it
Hey what’s up bro how are you one love
I’m great fam! ⚡️⚡️
