Music Mixing strategies and Music Mixing Tips

By Mickey Roukeayeal

Write and record before doing any mixing - Before you start mixing make sure that the whole track is recorded ( by you or someone else ). This is rule number one on the simple way to produce music.

You can't begin to mix a track before it is finished as that may be like making an attempt to decorate the insides of a place when the roof isn't on yet. If you do start to mix a track before it is has finished being written it will never be finished because when you're writing you need to think about certain things and when mixing you consider different things.

These 2 clashing priorities will pull you right and left. If you're / have been doing this there's a good chance you are attempting to use effects to hide a poorly written song or you want to learn and understand some basic music speculation to pave a solid path forward. It is worth mentioning that you might be short of some extra music production tips if you are having these Problems when you do have a finished track

Always fix any issues with what's been recorded at the time of recording - if you're recording something or have been given a track from someone and you can hear that there's a problem somewhere in the track it is very important that this problem is rectified before going into the mixing process. It's important to set solid and clear bounds between recording and mixing, I would say this is one of the golden rules that sits highly on the music production tips list.

If you have just recorded a guitar part and something isn't sitting quite right, maybe a note clash or something drops out of time temporarily, fix it immediately. Either find a note that does not clash or re-record that specific bar around or in between the rest which works. Do not leaving it until the mix.

Organize your environment before you start - Before you sit down and start to mix a track it is important to get everything arms reach and ensure you have everything needed out and close to hand. This won't be one of the most beneficial music mixing techniques but it is crucial for concentration. It is no good if you have to keep getting up and going through cupboards looking for categorical boxes or needing to use something only to find that you don't have the right cable or batteries.
