The Real Reason Your Mix Doesn’t Translate

In this video, I’m talking about why the midrange is probably the most important part of your entire mix, and why so many mixes completely fall apart outside the studio. We’ll go over common midrange mistakes, how to improve mix translation, why professional mixes are more midrange focused than you think, and how I use tools like multiband compression, NS10s, and Mixcubes to check my mixes. I’m also demonstrating how midrange affects guitars & vocals and overall clarity using plugins like FabFilter Pro-Q 4, Ozone Multiband Compressor, Pulsar 8200, Wavesfactory Spectre, and the UADx Manley Massive Passive.
