Groove3 Mixing Secrets Explained Vol.1 TUTORiAL

If you're feeling a bit bogged down with your workflow and/or aren't happy with the results you're getting with your mixes, then we have the mixing video course for you. In this video tutorial mixing course, mix wiz Thomas Cochran will show you several ways of mixing smarter, quicker, and more effectively. Whether it's using combinations of plug-ins in the place of one to more successfully accomplish a goal, using one plug-in (such as a channel strip) to accomplish the tasks of several, or dealing with unwanted resonances, there's a lot here for everyone. These mix videos are designed for intermediate-level recordists and mixers looking for tips on how to improve their results and process.

Software Used:

DAW: Pro Tools

UAD LA-2A Silver

UAD 1176AE

UAD Pultec EQP-1A

UAD SSL E Channel Strip

FabFilter Pro-DS

FabFilter Pro-MB

Oeksound Soothe2

Thomas begins the course by showing you a fast, tried-and-true method for leveling a signal with the 1176/LA-2A combination. Used on countless hits, this technique is famously used both when tracking and/or while mixing. Then you'll see how to split equalization duties into two or more EQs, using one more for correction and the other more for color.

Next, Thomas teaches you how you can tame unwanted resonances and harmonics with Soothe2 (Oeksound) and Pro-MB (FabFilter), demonstrating on two sources: piano and live strings. This is followed by a look at mixing bass effectively with the classic combination of a Pultec EQ and R-Bass (also known as Resonance Bass) from Waves. Finally, you'll see how a channel strip, such as the SSL E from UAD, can be used to quickly mix multi-source instruments like drums, reducing plug-in clutter and enabling faster, more intuitive mixing moves.

All of the tips and ideas in this course can be applied in myriad situations, depending on the project, and you'll start to notice a difference in both the sound and process of your mixes almost right away. The best mixing engineers in the world tend to work quickly, and there's a good lesson in that: trust your instincts and know your tools!
