Mixing in Flow is a focused guide for mix engineers who are familiar with the basics of mixing and now seek greater consistency and refinement in their work. Rather than covering every fundamental aspect of mixing, it picks up where many mixers experience a plateau - when they know the mechanics but struggle with inconsistent or lacklustre results.This book begins by defining the art of mixing, before moving into an intensive bootcamp where readers delve deep into working with the essential tools and developing effective workflows to maximise their potential. Within this framework, special emphasis is placed on ear training and critical engagement with sound. Using a problem-based approach, the focus then shifts to mixing in practice, by exploring common mixing challenges from the perspective of what we hear, with various techniques offered for addressing these sonic issues. The final section covers advanced topics, providing further insights that follow on from the development of core mixing skills.Designed to inspire readers to develop their unique mixing flow and have confidence in their tools, Mixing in Flow is the ideal companion for anyone looking to improve their mixing, including students and aspiring professional engineers, as well as more experienced mixers looking for new inspiration and continued professional development.
