Things to Keep in Mind While Mixing
The following are intended as guidelines or suggestions to follow when mixing your
projects, not as “hard-and-fast” instructions.
• Consider the importance of each element in the overall mix.
• Keep related tracks close together (in the Timeline and the Mixer).
• Don’t create a final mix until the picture is locked.
• Listen to the mix with the best possible equipment.
• Also listen to the mix as the audience will hear it.
• Don’t change output/monitor levels while mixing.
• Mix by what you hear, not by what you see.
