| · What's the 200 page handbook about? Each song is described in detail in terms of why it is mixed a certain way and how, with the software plugins. Here is an example:
"Power chord guitar two has nothing more than a single hi-pass filter at 400Hz so that the bass guitar can occupy the space that has been taken away form the power chord guitar. The result is a far better mix with more calrity and separation netween different types of instruments.
Finally, the right power chord guitar is sent to a C1 side-chain compressor plug-in where the kick drum compresses it every time the kick strikes. This is a pupular trick that rock producers use to create a pleasant pumping effect on guitars that are relatively un-dynamic throughout the whole song." [ Back to Top ]
