Like we looked at yesterday, where you start your mix matters. I know some people like to mix with all the faders up, but I find it a bit easier to zero in on one instrument at a time, and build from there.
Your Anchor Track
One helpful tip is to find the most important instrument for a given mix and start there. Make it your anchor track and begin building the rest of the mix around it. This could be the drums, piano, or even vocals. It all just depends on the song. Let’s take a look.

Hi Graham,
Great Tip. I never really noticed before that you seem to add ZERO plug-ins during the recording phase, and start fresh, which is something I will definitely be trying on our next record. I did notice that you have something on the kick and snare, perhaps a compression or gate? Just wondering.
Thank you!
Ingenious…
