Kinda a nerdy one. This acoustic guitar was not working for me- it just felt weird and didn’t fill out the mix much at all, and it needed to! Zooming in a bit I could see and measure a bit of a time/phase offset between the two mics which was causing some stereo field strangeness. 40 samples of delay on one mic, and it sounded 100% better!

One way to make the mix of a tune more collaborative is taking a few different stylistic approaches to it. I have my own tastes- and *almost* always provide a version of the mix to my taste, but I believe I'd being doing the art a disservice if I didn't put as much effort into sculpting a mix to the artists taste palette. Even more, exploring different ways to mix a tune sometimes opens up new creative ideas that we didn't think of!

Clip gain!
I spend a LOT of my mix time working on lead vocal tone- which includes many nonlinear processes of course! The most obvious example would be how the vocal interacts with the compressors- the emotional delivery of the story can be totally enhanced or compromised by how hard you hit the chain- but of course other tools like saturation can affect the “intensity” of a lyric as well.
So on top of automated EQs, stacked dynamics (full range and narrowband), and other processes, clip gain has a HUGE impact on creating a lead vocal sound that works in the mix and tells the story well!
You might even notice I’ve gone as far as automating the shape of the breaths- the way the singer breathes can totally affect way we perceive the emotion too!

“Less is more”. Turns out this is just what a lead vocal track desperately needed! Just a small touch, my usual EQ plugin choices made it far too easy to overcook it.
