    He has, from the sounds of it. And reportedly doing much better. Has helped his music too! Yeah I hear what you're saying, and agree in principle with what you mean. Like, sometimes you can kinda tell that this or that track is likely well mixed, because it is coming across well on that...

    Not necessarily so, because... :this: It's why it's not recommended to 'try and make it sound really good on phone' (as your sole aim) or only aim, as for example phones may have a naturally more tinny sound, so you might dull the sound, only for the mix to sound really dull everywhere else...

    Thanks, brother! Glad to hear it. Shows to myself how much ive developed Totally! I've been finding my current mixes and masters are translating well to each playback system - a result of improved monitoring, and I guess I could say improved listening/thinking. (Both of the latter definitely...

    So, analysing my mix on proper monitoring; Positives - definitely not the worse, levels fairly well balanced. Everything's got its place, possibly a result of the arrangement. Areas of issue; (highlighting the problem with mixing through devices with unideal frequency response) - Kick/lows - a...

    Got any more of those......hip hop memes?

    in his cupboard, but a 7-3-fucking-7 wot?! Maybe that's what's funny --- be like Arvin sitting on a camel in his mudhut, running his artist's vocals through a fucking fairchild. Make it make sense

    IRON TIP - Mixing is EASY!

    Even more easy! Mastering you're just dealing with a stereo wave, and If the mix is right, mastering is just saying "I don't need to do anything here." Maybe it's just having to make it louder; so just sticking a clipper and a limiter - and pushing enough to where it still 'sounds good.'

    IRON TIP - Mixing is EASY!

    That's partly the point. Many aren't getting that right. And it's really that easy. Even "the rest", it's as simple as turning knobs until things sound good. People doing too much and not just listening.

    IRON TIP - Mixing is EASY!

    Mixing is easy. The only skill you need, is to be able to hear if something sounds good. If you can do that, all you need to do is push faders and twists knobs until what you hear sounds good. Faders, knobs, and sounding good. If you listen to music and make music, you clearly have something...

    I generally disliked them before that album. Heard they came out to LA or the somewhere West to record it, something about Hip Hop. Some bits gave me Dre vibes. Was immediately in love with that album. Quality work.
