Hello All,

Here are your basic mixes from the session on January 20th, 2017 with Mr Wix. I hope you’ll find them acceptable and pleasant to listen to!

I wrote some comments below each mix, however certain types of procedures applied to ALL mixes.

🙂 Paul

All the tracks have YOUR playing on them. I didn’t add or delete any instruments. I did, however, TIGHTEN all your parts.

All drum and bass parts have been quantized and smoothed out. In most cases, the guitars – and sometimes the bass – also needed extra tuning, plus an occasional bum note needed editing.

The vocals usually needed some (subtle) re-tuning, and occasionally also re-phrasing.

In a few places it wasn’t quite clear what your intended arrangement was, so then I made corrections based on what I felt would work (only very few such instances).
