Chris and Jody discuss five different means of approaching your recordings to help get punchier mixes. Ideas brought up include the arrangement and the instruments used, dynamics and keeping them in a good ballpark. Plus ideas of EQ in the low end, saturation and not with gasoline, and phase checks. They all add up to creating a punchier mix. They all add up to creating a punchier mix. Don’t forget our Friday Finds. It’s also not unlikely that there will be some nonsense discussed.
