Re: MIX CHALLENGE - MC085 April 2022 - Mix Round 1 in evaluation

Hi all, I've loved listening to all your mixes. Very many of them have a lot better vocal sound than I got and perhaps even more importantly got a generally brighter sounding track than I did. I've found that very often my tracks are coming out lacking in brightness and I'd like to ask the other eng...

Hi again Killa, there's nothing 'wrong' with sending lots to the same reverb, I've watched a tutorial vid where the great Warren Huart did exactly that and showed how effective it can be.
