Mixing Tips & Tricks

Welcome to a new Tips & Tricks group!

The subject for this group is MIXING with the purpose of me and you to share and discuss mixing tips and tricks of all sorts! And feel free to ask questions if you have them!

So hopefully we can get a discussion going so we can all make our tracks sound the best possible! Or just learn a thing or two.

Check out Andreas Tips N’ Tricks for more sound design/synthesizer tips.

I noticed that if you turn the dry up on the delay with the same settings mentioned, you get a surround sound.

I have done that as well, that seems to be best for Mono synths.

@Xephyr It might change the sound a bit so play with the settings. What is does is essentially playing left/right with the waveforms out of phase which creates the stereo effect. Another way to do it is do double your synth track. Just do a copy of the track, open up one of the synths and change the sound a bit. Maybe slighty different amount of waveforms or filters etc (again play with settings). Then you take both tracks, pan one fully to the left and the other to the right.

I use this a lot, but I have found that the quality of synths and such lowers when I do this. I cannot get a nice, clean Mono synth to do stereo.

Posted this idea a while back in Team Soundation and will use it to kick of this group! Mono to Stereo effect using the Delay FX. Listen to the example, settings in info also. The idea is to delay the left and right channels to give it a stereo sound. First bar is mono, second is stereo then back. Settings used: Time Left: 7ms, Time Right: 2ms, Feedback: 0, Filter: 100, Wet: 100, Dry: 0.. Play around with the settings to maybe give it a different sound.
