Post Description

David Gibson's hugely popular the Art of Mixing, the book that has taught a generation of mixing engineers, comes to life with more than 2 hours of vivid, animated instruction on one feature-packed DVD! With Gibson's exclusive 3-dimensional framework, you'll learn the right way to create every style of mix for any style of music. 



VIDEO #1, PART 1 - VISUAL REPRESENTATIONS OF IMAGING

This video is designed as an Introduction to the visual framework for representing sounds in mixes. It explains and shows:

    Specific correlations between audio parameters and visual parameters: Volume, Panning, Equalization, Compressor/Limiters, Noise Gates, Delays, Flanging, Choruses, Phasing, and Reverb.
    "The Limits of Imaging," where a mix occurs in the space between the speakers.
    The basic concept of making a mix that is appropriate for the music and song.
 

VIDEO #1, PART 2 - VISUAL REPRESENTATIONS OF STUDIO EQUIPMENT

The second video in the series is a survey of all the functions and parameters within each piece of equipment in the studio. Using the visuals the video covers:

    The details of each and every piece of equipment in the studio.
    How each piece of equipment is used in different styles of music and songs.



VIDEO #2 - STRUCTURES OF MIXES

The third video uses the framework explained in the first two videos to explain how to use studio equipment to create any style of mix. The video shows:

    The difference between invisible mixes and mixes that add a musical component.
    The common musical dynamics that can be created with equipment in the studio.
    How combinations of various equipment can be used to create different styles of mixes.
    How to create a context (style of mix) and then completely blow people's minds by abruptly changing it to another style.
