I've been using Melodyne to de-ess - It is tedious to be sure, but to my ear sounds very natural. Thoughts? Thank you Tony. ~ Cindy

I really didn’t understand why he left the saturation in the vox so high in the bridge. I could understand adding more saturation there but not bringing it over the top like he did. It made my ears cringe a bit every time I heard it, even in the final print. I thought maybe he would soften it a bit before that final print, but no.

Tony's videos are excellent.

Of the many mixers who've worked on the Lifeboats series, only 2-3 have noticed & fixed that out of tune synth early on. The rest continue to torture our ears by looping it over and over without ever seeming to notice how painful the tuning is

watching Tony video always give me all the confidence and inspired me to be better. His vids taught me to be patient and get my idea done and figured out later the challenging parts.
Message to the Pro, let us see your challenges and hear your thought process sometime is the best gift to us because we know how to face ours; When a mix challenge us it's not because we are that bad but instead it's just a part of the mix process. "inside the mix " to me, sucks, and that's why Puremix is the Best.
