LOL! excellent! I once heard someone refer to that as the sound/effect of "sneakers in the dryer"
I'm not into fancy stuff at all and usually take the road that the music stands for itself, "as-is." I don't usually futz around with very fine controls unless I feel it adds something to what I'm doing. When I first started I used to keep my indiv level controls up and then use the fader left-to-right, etc. but then somewhere along the way I changed to mostly not using the master fader at all and just using the levels for each channel (and my ears & watching the levels). But then it really depends on what you're doing & how you're doing it. Also whatever kind of tunes you're playing. I think some lend better to the mad/slam back & forth that one can get from using the master fade. I have to say tho' - the train wreck method IS really entertaining - I've spent some time there myself! Nowadays it's mostly slight drag or missed measures that can sneak up on me ... ;) lisa ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thursday, January 8, 2004 7:57 am Subject: Re: (313) how do you mix > i find that a mix consisting entirely of "train-wrecks" can be > really quite exciting. with all the cacophony and dischord > present, the occassional, accidental instance of beat-matching > will appear as an epiphany to the irritated listener. people > don't let me get on the decks too much anymore... i'm not allowed > to use the TV remote either. oh well. > > lrh > > > > > > From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Date: 2004/01/08 Thu AM 07:42:54 EST > > To: <313@hyperreal.org> > > Subject: (313) how do you mix > > > > ok so i am curious to know how you all mix, im not into tricks > and things i > > just want a nice smooth mix without endless beatmatching (get on > with the > > tunes i say!) > > > > generally when i mix house i tend to bring the next tune in with > the bass > > turned 3/4 of the way down and gradually bring it up as i bring > the outgoing > > tune's bass down then i wind down the volume until it is faded > out. or ill > > bring a tune in with the bass almost off then at the appropriate > time ill > > swap the bassline into the new tune (if that makes sense) > > > > anyway its getting a bit 'samey' and im looking for some tips > > > > ab > > > > > > --- > > Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. > > Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com). > > Version: 6.0.558 / Virus Database: 350 - Release Date: 1/2/04 > > > > > >
