In a nutshell, audio mixing is the process by which a multitude of recorded sounds are combined into one or more channels, most commonly two channel stereo. We can enhance any spoken performance by removing unwanted noise and fixing volume levels, we provide the listener with a great recording. Editing is also very important factor, especially when it comes to voiceover, audiobooks, podcasts and post production audio.
The mix needs to be able to tell the artist’s story.
A great mix can take it to a higher level and that is our number one goal. A poor mix can and will ruin a great song. Mixing is done in order to achieve and produce an appealing sound to the listeners. The mixing stage can be the most time consuming process of recording and perhaps the most difficult stage of any recording. This involves checking for peaking, phase cancellation, unwanted distortion, setting levels, applying compression, equalization and panning to individual tracks. Mixing is the process in where you balance individual recorded tracks to create a quality recording. It really doesn't matter how well you recorded your parts, without careful mixing the final product can sound poor.
Mixing is a very important part of creating a quality recording and most of the gear in our recording studio is dedicated to just that.
