Mixing is the art of balancing each sound in the song and making each element work together. Using autotune, equalizers, compressors, saturators, exciters and many other effects we can shape the sound to get it how you want it. In my process I bring up the volume of the most important elements that drive the track, and then I bring up the volume of the other instruments. This way we start from scratch and everything sits nicely in the mix. I usually mix in the mornings when my ears are fresh to get the best results.
