This week on Inside the Recording Studio, Chris and Jody break down the game-changing concept of using reference mixes to guide your mixing process. Why is referencing so essential? Whether you’re a beginner trying to get your bearings or a seasoned engineer fine-tuning your sound, reference tracks can act as a compass for creating professional, polished mixes.
Join the discussion as Chris and Jody share how they incorporate reference mixes into their workflow, offering practical tips to keep your ears sharp and your mixes consistent. Discover their favorite tools and plugins that make referencing seamless in any DAW—plus, a few recommendations that might surprise you.
Of course, it wouldn’t be an Inside the Recording Studio episode without a bit of humor and nonsense along the way. And don’t miss the big reveal in this week’s ‘Friday Finds’—you never know what gem might pop up!
