Mix notes are something that all producers, engineers, and artists have to deal with, wether giving or receiving them, they are part of music creation. However, it seems like many people don't totally know what to expect from mix notes, or what the processes and protocols around them are, especially newer artists. In today's episode, that's what we discuss, 10 of my top tips for dealing tip mix notes. This goes for both artists, what to give and what to expect, as well as mix engineers who are looking at what is "the norm" (if there is such a thing in music creation) when it comes to receiving mix notes from artists. Where it's okay to draw certain lines, or things to remind artists about. Basically, here's my guidelines to help your mix notes go smoother, and thus help preserve your working relationships.

Giving Feedback, Mix Notes, Production Notes, basically giving your thoughts on someone's creative outlet, is something that happens often, but need to be given in the right way. Well delivered thoughts, feedback or notes can go a long way to improve the project, and achieve the best outcome result, but can get there faster and strengthen the working relationship between those involved at the same time. In this episode I discuss how best to deliver that feedback to achieve the best results, and why it's so important. I describe the best delivery method as the “compliment sandwich”. This is when you start off your message saying something you like, then follow it up with something you want changed or aren't so keen on, then end off the whole message with another compliment or something you really liked about their work. It's important to give the notes of what you want changed by also adding in what you like. It's not just about giving them notes on what you don't like and what you'd like fixed and changed, but also about letting them know what you do like. On the receiving end, getting those notes is helpful to better understand what direction to take as adjustments are made. You don't want to just give criticism, you need to make sure it's helpful and constructive. Don't attack their choices and don't give vague notes, explain what you are thinking, so they can best serve your vision. If it's unhelpful feedback and notes, or doesn't give a further direction of what you're actually looking for, that will only serve to sour the working relationship, and ultimately not sure the project best. At the end of the day, we all just want the best final outcome to our project, and this is a very easy way be a pleasure to work with and bring your creative vision to it's full potential as well.

Episode 1 - Notes for the Mixer We start off this episode by introducing ourselves and noting that Kenny doesn’t have a website and giving him a hard time for it. We move on to discussing “Mix Notes” and what’s the best way for engineers to communicate with their mixing engineer and vice versa to get the most out of this relationship. The discussion moves towards “Mastering” and how important that is with a great mix and how much to squash it and how much to leave it til that stage. Phil brings up the importance of having a mix sound good or translate on all systems. Next we discuss chasing the rough or having to match elements of the rough mix that the client loved. We move on to discussing how long it takes to mix and when you start to really “get it”. The discussion moves on with Kenny describing his childhood and how he built a studio with no knowledge of how to do it. Next we bring up the idea of Pro Tools rigs as a separate source of income and a Pro Tools operator or editor being a different job than a recording engineer. We all then describe how we all moved from recording engineers on real consoles and tape machines to using DAWs as our main workstation.
