Cool Geekout Notes
Well, there are a few actually:
*The verse drums are a loop that is pitched down at least a few steps.
*This is my first mix using my new UAD-1 Card. So, viva la difference. I'm getting used to the new plug-ins, so I feel each mix will get better and better.
*All tracks are run through my Universal Audio Tube Mic Pre (2-610).
*This was a bitch of a mix because there are so many ups and downs. The song has a tremendous amount of dynamics.
*Another thing: the chill synth sound that goes through the entire song:
I flip the phase during the verses. So, essentially--and especially in your headphones--you'll hear the sound go from a more centered sound to a hard left/right sound. By doing that I think it leaves room for the voice. And well, I thought it sounded kewl, damnit.
I told you this was geeky stuff.
