Mixing tutorials - Daisy Daisy Growl-Bass 1st mix thru a Fairchild 670 emulation
11Mixed using some T-Racks plugins --- Fairchild 670 emulation, it's a killer emulation, soooo many hit records are fed thru this iconic bit of gear. Had to drop the kick a tad cos it was pumping the Fairchild too much... just dropped the kick until it stopped pumping in an over the top way.. more listening on speakers to come....
Processor emulations used in this mix: 1176, la2a, Pultec EQP-1A, Api 650 graphic & Neve 1073 plus a very good tape delay on Vox. The bass is two tracks, DI & Amp, one is going thru an API graphic now, with only the mid-bands up, all other bands cut out = growl!! blended in with DI bass-track for the bass-end etc etc. 1st mix in cans, probably overloaded & bass-heavy.. BUT, i want it to sound like a record, not a "recording", this is what it is about, not necessarily "realism" which sometimes noobs think is the holy grail if they read too many tech-forums inhabited by 'Purists'....I'll show what I did soon...
