I catch myself all the time over-using hats in almost a “cheating” way to lazily fill out mixes, so definitely going to try fitting them in as more of a light touch.
I have a strong understanding of music theory and can guarantee that everything was appropriately in key. I personally prefer keeping the vocals pitched a little as I think it sounds better on stage. I also didn't pitch a single song up by more than 3 steps, which is within the range you...
What's up BTF! I've started having more time to dedicate to mixing for teams so I'm trying to become more active. I just mixed for Vibe at BSM (the first 5:30 of the mix) and would love feedback.
