Ep.15 Mixing “Anytime You Want Me” - part 3
Continuing with the mix of "Just As Long As You Want Me," Matt Ross-Spang brings the series to a triumphant ending with two new completed tracks from Eli "Paperboy" Reed.
See how Matt Ross-Spang:
- Uses automation to paint the scene for each section of the song to make a cinematic mix
- Automates the send to the incredible chamber at Sam Phillips Recording from section to section
- Uses clip gain to adjust the average level of the vocal to make the fader rides less notable
- Explains why he draws in automation on peaks instead of using compression
- Uses a full tone tape echo to add a slack back to the lead vocal
- EQs the reverb return to sit in the mix
Join Matt Ross-Spang, Eli "Paperboy" Reed, The Hodges Brothers, Ken Coomer, and The
