What is your #1 mixing tip?
Parallel compression
I'm no pro but I find a mix is easily refinable when you play it on phone speakers, consumer speakers, headphones and Bluetooth speakers to find any issues in the mix. The imperfect listening device makes your mistakes more obvious
Take A LOT of breaks and take care of your ears

Leveling the volumes. It may seem like such an easy task however whenever a particular track is too loud it can ruin everything.

Hi Blue thanks ever so much for sharing!! You Rock!!
thanks for this , really helpful...
@@Table-Top yes, agreed!
@@Producelikeapro Np, it was fun to finally be one of the people here early enough to do the timestamps. I always appreciate these on other videos and thought I'd take a turn. Thank you for all the tips. My PLAP lifetime membership is definitely paying for itself, a great value. And that's not even mentioning the priceless community.
Hi Blue wow! Thanks ever so much my friend! It’s amazing having you as part of our community my friend!!
that saturation trick for shading the highend... never thought of that use... topclass tip for me today!
Hi Felipe Yamahata you’re very welcome my friend!!
Here's my top three tips. Three things I had to learn the hard way!
1. Always ALWAYS check your mix on other monitors
2. Compare your mix to reference tracks
3. Fix problems at the source, or early on, if possible
Fantastic! Thanks ever so much Alex! You Rock!
Very important!
@@maxuno8524 yes, agreed!!
The overhead sidechained with the snare was a great idea!
This guy is a freaking gem. Thank you so much for the all your videos!
It really creeps me out when I am on youtube searching for info and you upload the exact thing I am looking for at the same time I'm looking for it!! But I appreciate it!!
Haha sorry! Crazy coincidence! Thanks ever so much for watching! I appreciate your support!
Its just wonderful to see someone is still jazzed in these rather down times. Art does indeed make life exciting.
My number 1 tip is to EQ before you do the compressing so that you get rid of all of the sounds that you don't want and then enhance the sounds that you do want through compressing. That technique has saved me so much time in the studio.
I've found that I prefer using compression before EQ on drum overheads if I'm trying to squash down the snare compared to the cymbals. If you EQ out all the low end first then the main sound that makes the snare too loud isn't there to trigger the compressor in the correct way.
Warren, ur doing my head in mate, taking me to deep waters and teaching me to swim, the mind resists, but the spirit loves it, very greatful.
Great tips, thank you, Warren.
I love the one to reduce snare bleed in the overheads.
I have an idea for future content.
A video series would be awesome.
The story line would be to accompany an artist and his or her producer for the entire production process of an song. From songwriting, pre-production, hire studio musicians, cutting the tracks, mixing, mastering and finally publishing.
Maybe it's possible to involve and interact with members of the Academy or the whole Community to get things like artwork or promotion material done or even to contribute parts as musician. Sounds a bit like a reality TV show, doesn't it?
I know it's a huge venture and I'm not sure if it feasible, but sounds very interesting to me.
This is definitely one of your best videos out about tips and tricks.
Thank you so much Warren, take care
I’m looking forward to the next generation of producers and mixers that learned all these things in no time with a couple of your videos. Great!
It would be really nice if you could do a video about automation. This can transform a rather „static“ mix into something extraordinary and is hard to get right.
Thanks ever so much Johnny! Yes, automation is a big discussion and I'm excited to do another video on it!
Congrats on reaching that 1K videos milestone.
Thanks ever so much Mark! You are very kind!!
Congrats on 1000 videos and 1000 times thank you. Stay safe and healthy.
Thanks ever so much my Friend!!
Congrats on the thousandth video! I can't tell you how much your channel has helped make the mixing world not only less daunting, but truly exciting to learn. I'm now mixing my first solo album using a lot of the tips I've learned from you over the years. Can't thank you enough for contributing so much to this community. Cheers Warren!
One reason I love Studio One is the routing editor, which lets me create multiband effect chains on a single channel without specialized plugins.
#1 Tip is: To learn from you Warren 😉👍🏾👌🏾
Hi Jamal Johnson thanks ever so much my friend!
Panning GTR to the opposite of the reverb is my #1 learnt TRICK !!! NICE !!!!!
Wow... That Snare trick is the shznit! Very cool! That Multiband Gate looks amazing.
After watching this I'm so inspired to mix the next song not only of the tips you share with us but watching you being so entusiasthic and passionate about what you do in your life

@@Producelikeapro Why thank you!
You're a legend H, thank you ever so much for everything you do!
Fantastic video Warren. I've watched it three times now. Really great information.
Amazing how much "swing' got reintroduced to the kick just by doing the initial phase align of the three mic"s. It got it's groove back. Thanks Warren, always illuminating, always fun!!
Thanks for sharing your wisdom Warren. Love the dynamic delay & reverb trick especially.
Congrats for the 1000 videos! Keep up the excellent work, Warren. Cheers!
This Is just Pure gold. Getting amazing tips for free from an absolute legend!! The internet is amazing and so are you! Thank you very very much
I've learnt more from your tips in the last couple of years or so than I did fumbling around on my own for over ten years.. Youz da man!
This is an amazingly useful video. I love it! I will be using all of these from now on. Thank you very much! 📌
Greetings Warren ! I guess we can't thank you enough for all these tips on all your channel, it's brilliantly useful.
You're so into it, it's a pleasure to watch. Thank you.
Thanks ever so much!
Great tips, thank you ever so much for your contribution to better mixing. Stay healthy and safe.
Warren... Truly excellent tips in this vid.
You totally over-deliver!
Thanks ever so much
You are amazingly instructive. Some of your tips have become my standards. Now a few more to come. Thank you for sharing this valuable knowledge of yours!
Great tricks Warren! Many thanks for sharing your awesome knowledge with us :) it's soooo fun (and rewarding) to play with sounds as you do!
Sometimes you get the perfect video at the perfect time. This was one of those times!
You are very kind Cory!! Thanks ever so much my friend!!
Good stuff, as always. Thanks, Warren!
Man, I just found your channel a couple days ago and I'm already sold, can't stop watching. Subscribed and tnx for all this amazingness
Thanks ever so much my friend! I'm so glad to be able to help!!
Love your passion for what you do!
Ahhh this is where I heard align the overheads and snare👌 My drummer got all worried until he heard it haha. I have to go back thru and refresh myself sometimes and yup, Warren always dropping the best info💥
Just Awesome.! So Happy I found this Channel.!
Always great watching your videos, keeps the spirits up during these pretty miserable times! I've just completed an Audio Engineering course so these videos are keep up my motivation for all things recording/mixing/mastering!
Warren you are a wise man. Thankyou for share this knowldege.
I work in the Bassmusic, Dub, Dubstep, Rap, Trap scene but you and your channel is the most important YT channel for me. I love mixing and mastering and can always learn something new on this channel. Thank you for the quality content!!!
Absolutely congratulations on this channel and all that it recollects. Cheers from Brazil.
I like to use a dynamic EQ on the bass track and sidechain the bulk of the kick frequencies and use the kick to trigger the sidechain so it will duck the main kick frequencies out of the bass track when the kick hits allowing for the kick to stand out more and the bass to help put more sub into the kick making it so your kick doesn't get lost in the mix and your bass is made up of all of the frequencies it lost by the kick replacing those frequencies therefore making your mix more bass heavy and punchy. this works great when mixing 808s and kicks especially.
Priceless info Warren, you are a prince among men!
Keep on rockin'
Alex
Thanks ever so much Alex!
Warren, I was wondering. Have you any tips re. making samples/ programmed drums, more interesting? As an ITB, one man band, kinda fellow, any suggestions would be gratefully received.
Cheers
Alex
this is great Mr. Warren.. thanks you for every thing you did for this world.
Brilliant tips, best tutorials. Thank you
Another Marvellous video by Warren! When the master speaks we listen. The best encyclopedia of music production on the web period! I remember when your channel started mate and it has grown into a world class schooling for so many people. We owe you a grate debt of gratitude for being the original guy who let us in and all become your interns. Keep safe mate and best wishes. :-)
Agreed
The last tip you talked about is always been my first. Using multiple reverbs and delays in a track. As a front of house audio mixer back in the day I always had my hands on that gear adjusting during performances. It created a fuller sound and made every room sound like a stadium. Love that application. Using the saturation tip for coloring the vocals or other instrument is amazing - Top Tip for me. Love learning a new element. Thank You.
Some are really good ideas that I've never known. Thanks a lot!
Really useful tips as always! :-) And what a great community at PLAP! :-)
Wow! This is a Freakin' Brilliant Checklist!!!! Thank you so Much!
Thanks ever so much Franko!
I have to try that dynamic delays/reverbs trick and saturation on room mics omg that is gold :D Thank you Warren for sharing yet again some amazing tips.
Another superb video, as usual, this is easily the best recording studio production youtube channel out there.
Wow! Thanks ever so much
Thank you ever so much for all your knowledge, Warren! This came in good use
Thank you Warren. Yes, I love your channel. Hope you are keeping well, stay well!
I’ll adjust compressor times on picked acoustics, especially singer-songwriter stuff. Longer attack, fast release when the guitar is by itself, and then I’ll tighten the attack and lengthen the release when the singer is singing. It makes the guitar pop between the sung phrases, and creates a pad for the vocals to rest over.
Another one is if I have multiple electric guitars, I’ll send them all to a buss and put light multiband compression over the whole buss. It kinda glues them into the same place and gives them an overall sonic character without making them all sound the same. I remember the first time I tried it, the guitars went from sounding good to sounding polished.
Great content as always, Warren! Made me remember to go back to a track where I'm having trouble with the bass and do the bass split trick. Cleaned it right up! My #1 mix trick is: if the plugin that should be fixing the problem (ex: de-esser) isn't fixing it, go in and manually edit! Dip those big S's with clip gain. Automate an EQ to get rid of a pop. It's easier to forget that, while not as easy as setting a plugin, we have a ton of power in most DAWs and especially in Pro Tools, which I love for audio editing, and you can almost always get where you want to go if you're willing to put in the time and effort.
awesome video. thanks for the tips!
I learnt tip No 8 from you ages ago. Cleaned up my vocals no end. Sometimes the simple things make a huge difference. Cheers Warren.
Marvellous! Thanks ever so much!
these are really PRO tips! thanks a lot. Keep up :D
very nice the tip with Bass! sounds great!
A schnizzleton of brilliant tips and tricks as per usual. And timely too, 'cos I'm recording like a beast at the moment since I can't really do much else. The one actual positive side to life in lockdown.
I have always done a similar guitar technique for live engineering - in a medium sized venue where the guitar amp is audible in the audience I would often drop a reverb and eq on the backline mic and pan right over to the opposite side of the stage - then do the same with the second guitarist - the sound on stage was massive and full in the mix.
This is incredibly helpful. Never seen this before!
Awesome tricks, very useful!
FANTASTIC!!! Thank you, Thank you!!
Thanks Warren. This is really really helpful!
Superb as always
Thanks for making one of the best school of music ..... And that too online on CZcams..... Learned each & everything by watching your videos...!!!!! I sincerely want to thank you sir ...❤️❤️❤️ Best
Thank you Warren for posting this one! Great tips!
Thanks ever so much Dave!
Have just done the 7. Panning guitar reverbs opposite of the source (21:29) tip, and learned how to do it in Tracktion 7. Great tip thanks Warren, sounds amazing!
The snare trick, can't wait to try it. Thanks for the thousanth time Warren!
Tried it, and yes what a great tip to share. I now have that snap I am always trying to get. Thankyou
Thanks for being so consistent on the quality of your content, man.
I actually just did a tutorial over reaper and some basic metal vocal mixing for some people in the Kardavox vocal Community on Facebook (I wont plug it too much, it's on a different channel :P) but now I wonder how often guys like yourself and Glenn have have focused discussion for long videos. found myself rambling from time to time and had to cut quite a bit of the recording. But people have dug it
As for tips I like: I honestly really like the basic idea of having a delay going into a reverb. It just makes everything sound super lush.
Also I love the George Yhong w1 limiter on harsh vocals. Set the ceiling to -3 and throw the threshold down to hear it beef up those vocals.
You rock figuratively and literally!
Thank you! These are gonna be so useful :)
Thank you, again and again, Warren!
I would be FOREVER thankful for you to do a video on setting levels in relation to each other. I know some tricks with kick and bass, using a VU meter, but *vocal levels* and the other elements are always tough to get set. Maybe some ranges for different genres and any visual tools that aid imperfect mixers? Thanks for everything you’ve done to help me learn!
Thanks! I am always learning some cool tricks. The dynamics delay/reverb seem useful when like me you don’t have side chain capacity...
I'm really liking this idea of splitting the bass hi/lo for separate control. Most of the stuff I record is just DI, I can see myself using this a lot.
This is the best mix tutorial ever, Thanx you🙏
that was awesome! Thank you
Thank you so much for what you do Warren!
Great Marvelous Thank you awesome Tips!!!!
Great tips. Love hearing me some Robert Jon and the Wreck too!
Awesome! Thank you so much 😊
Hi Warren, great tips, Thank you, hope you are doing well and keeping safe, all the best.
This is all brilliant. Thank you so much!
Such a good lesson while eating lunch. I'd give it 2 thumbs up if I was allowed. Thanks for all the great advice and direction. Stay safe and germ free and keep'm coming. Cheers.
Love it Warren! Finally got a good saturator.... Used Izotope Trash 2 on a vocal for the first time today.
This trick of the overhead compression sidechaning with the snare is amazing. I will try it in my next project.
Thanks ever so much! Stay safe, happy and healthy! I'm so glad to be able to help! Have a marvellous time recording, many thanks Warren
Wow, fantastically useful tips.
Thanks for these tips! I found Slate's Faux Space and Snare Force tricks very useful
