Last Wednesday Joey talked with me for an hour about how the session went the previous week with the band I brought in. We talked about what needed some work and what sounded incredible! For the next hour he let me loose on his pro tools and mixer he had for about an hour figuring things out by myself and with my own ear. It was awesome! I put some reverb behind the bands voice from the previous weeks session. I then put some autotune behind the voice and learned I couldn't do that when a singer slowly slides from one note to another. I then learned to just set the whole band the right way and make the mix sound good. I then used the program called melodyne and tried playing around with it, which Joey taught me how to use that program that day. Joey came in from the other room where he was with another student, but heard me mixing, and said he was impressed with what I knew already. All in all, it was a great day!
