Are you chasing that Radio-ready sound? Would you like to learn a process that allows you to mix tracks with a greater indication of balance, depth, and vibe?

This week, I cover IN DETAIL the Famous ABCD Bus Compression method from one of NYC’s best mix engineers, Michael Brauer. Brauer has used this approach to mix some of today’s top artists such as Coldplay, and John Mayer.

The Brauerizing method is a brilliant way to begin the mixing process. After watching this video, you know how to  separate your mix’s instruments into 4 bus compression groups to develop a better indication of balance, and create subtle rhythmic counterpoints between the groups that will result in a more engaging, wide, and radio-ready sound.

This video is quite long (23min) check the description on the YouTube website for time stamps to each chapter.
