What are some of your tricks/ what do you recommend to improve mixing.

>never use a ratio above 4:1 when using compression
>cut frequencies in the bass that clash with the transient of the drum
>cut low mids on the kick
>look for any really loud sibilant frequencies and cut them by 6dbU or more in things like guitars and cymbals
>automate acoustic instruments so individual strums are louder and punch through the rest of the mix
>if you have multiple guitar tracks use panning to free space where needed

pretty cookie cutter mixing techniques buts that all I can really offer in a short post

mixing is for fags

A tip for you, when working with guitars put a notch around the 4k at about -6 to -12db it really kills that annoying buzz especially when the guitar is distorted make sure the bell is thin like you're doing a sweep

just roll off past 4k on most egtrs dude. then add saturation to taste

think about what you wana do with eq before you do it, then adjust with bypass on before unbypass.

That's good for lofi stuff but like rock stuff you loose to much top end i usually cut off at 12-13k

I guess it depends on your vocalist too

never use ableton's panning.

>>74348684
if it comes to what kind of singer just filter the freq that's messing with the voice

Any electric guitar specific mixing tips?

>>74349303
is this a specific issue with ableton or are you referring to every DAW native panning?

>>74350955
ableton specific.
get a plugin for it. flux make something called stereotool v3 which is free and very good.
