MIX ENGINEERING 101: Do You Need A Sound Or Style?
So… should your mixes always sound like you? Chris & Jody stir the pot with a no-holds-barred chat about whether mix engineers should embrace a “signature sound” or just be sonic chameleons. On one hand, having a vibe makes you recognizable. On the other, it might just turn you into a one-trick pony. They unpack the pros, the cons, the industry myths, and of course, a little nonsense in between.
