The vibe is there, the tones are amazing, it's time to put the final polish on the mix.
In the final episode of mixing "Sweet Beast" from "Illiterate Light", Vance irons out the fine details and adds the last bit of flavor to the mix.
Watch as Vance:
- Explains SSL Console Automation
- Automates the vocals to create the feeling of falling off a cliff in between sections
- Rides the guitar faders to build energy and focus on highlights in the parts
- Uses the absolute automation mode to add personality to the mix
- Automates a rotary speaker at the end of the solo for a massive exit
- Explains the extremely rare SSL screen that happened to come up while the cameras were rolling!
- Write this one down… "Just because we can, doesn't mean we should"
- A/Bs the output of the SSL desk to the output of the 2192 A/D Converter so you can hear how the A/D affects the mix.
- Cleans the heads on the ATR-102 tape machine used for printing the mix
- Explains his favorite tape formula
Once you've seen how Vance mixed it, download the full session that Vance and the band created over the past 12 episodes and mix it for yourself!

This is a general comment on site structure: I just watched the first episode of this start to finish series. Why can't I just have the second episode coming up next? Either automatically or at least make it easy for me to click on it. Why do I get unrelated "related" videos instead of the thing wich I want the most?
I want a list of the videos coming up next in this start to finish series on every single episode. Please!

Vance slays. I could listen to him all day. I might book a day down in his studio just to hang out!

When he put the vocal mic in on the drums at 18:00 I was instantly thinking D'yer Maker. Also, this guy is a master! I could watch him teach all day.

I clicked the link to download the exercise files, but all that was in there was the PT session. Are the stems in a separate link?

It's amazing how every single step keeps adding a bit to end sounding super great, Vance has a really worked out method, really nice to watch.
Es increíble como cada paso va agregando un poco para terminar sonando groso, Vance ha trabajado su método muy bien a lo largo del tiempo, es genial poder verlo
