Recording and mixing techniques

Videos showing some interesting recording and mixing techniques I’ve used.  I learned things from many people who shared their knowledge.  In return I want to share things I’ve developed to make radio quality music.

Techniques

Reverb Fun

Unique guitar sound

I put reverb for a lead guitar on its own bus.  Then I turned down the volume fader on the guitar so the only sound we get is the reverb.  This gave a unique and spacy sound to the song New Thing.

Childrens Choir

Logic Pro X QuickSampler

I show how I used QuickSampler in Logic Pro to turn an old choral recording into a children’s choir.  We used this on our Christmas song Silent Night.

Stereo Trick

Panning to add width

I again used QuickSampler and a washy reverb combined with panning automation to create the illusion of angels singing across the sky for our Christmas song Silent Night.
