[QUOTE="Mike Caldwell, post: 26429, member: 170"] Re: Please help me better my mixing skills Work on getting a good solid mix going without any FX, comps, gates first. After the mix is up and going start icing the cake with a little comp on say the vocals, snare, bass, Acoustic guitar. Add a some gating on the toms, kick. Depending on the type of venue effects like verb may or may not not be needed. Set back and listen if anything you added starts to jump out and become annoying you don't need as much or maybe none at. As has been mention good gain structure is first and for most and be sure you listen to the sound sources directly at the source for instance if the tone out of the guitar amp is all 1k and up I'm not sure your going to find a knob to fix that! Try different mics, turn knobs, have fun. [/QUOTE]
