It’s actually pretty tough to nail backing vocals when you have drums, synth, lead vocals, rhythm guitars, bass, lead guitars, acoustic guitars, and various other accent instruments to balance against. The key is to learn how to carve out the right space while controlling the dynamics.
This clip is taken from an 5+ hour long Nail The Mix stream where Joel Wanasek mixed the entire song while answering questions from the audience!
Topics Covered:
- His methods of snare replacement
- How to cut up drums into different tracks
- How he organizes a session for an efficient workflow
- Controlling low end with multi-band compression
- Integrating synth into a dense metal mix
- How to make a snare room for a bombastic snare sound
