CREATIVE SOUND PROJECTS (Element 1) – PART 5: FINAL MIXDOWN

The final mixdown has been another challenge since for that purpose I have used a different DAW than Ableton Live which I have been using for mixing as well. For mixing I have chosen Pro Tools and this track became my very first project mixed in Pro Tools.

Since I have focused on most of the sound design and recording quality samples at the very beginning mixing session happened to be rather pleasant and very subtle polishing job.

I have mostly adjusted only volume levels of tracks, added compression on the drum group and EQ on few selected track where I felt that certain frequency needs enhancement as well as maybe a bit different colour of sound and improved automation of panning on glitchy sounds.

I have left of course the head room of -6dB.
