Tune in to this episode for some excellent mixing advice from Daniel Robert Ford; as we deconstruct his mix of “I Like the Sound of That” by the band, Autopilot. You will learn how Daniel approaches a mix, and you will get an in-depth glimpse into these methods of session routing, organization, and how and why he uses his own custom plug-in presets. The episode includes an in-depth analysis of the mix, from the bottom up, starting with drums and bass, and moving on up to vocals. You will hear how and why he chose the plug-ins that he used to craft the sound; Daniel explains how he dealt with specific issues that arose along the way. The entire episode is structured using notes written during the mixing process, offering exceptional insight that you might not usually get during a standard mix deconstruction. It is a fantastic seminar, so do not miss it!

While I'm impressed with Dr. Ford's knowledge and skill, and appreciate all the tips and ideas presented, the format of the course -- a recording of a live session complete with glitches, DAW crashes, etc. wasn't exactly ideal. And Dr. Ford mentioned we'd get the actual session file, which I can't find here. Still, worth the time and money spent.
