You use Soundforge to record mixes, phwoar, that's dead sexy that is :love: :$


LOL

errr, oh yeah, point of posting? lol

Best thing to do - do a mix of say 2 or 3 records before your proper mix, and record it all, any nervous mixing should be in the first couple of mixes, then just edit that out, sorted innit.

That's one way, I prefer to leave mistakes in, as it shows you are human, and I think it's good for other people to hear how you rescue a mix when it's going out :thumbsup:

Soundforge, sexy as hell I tell thee phones:

Lololol @ BJ! :rofl: What you like eh!! :p

Cheers for the advice peeps, aye your right about doing a few mixes before hand, i noticed as i got into my mix i got better, probably becasue i was relaxing, so perhaps doing a couple before hand may help. :thumbsup:

The mix i did whilst not recording went really well, no SHS :) then as soon as the recording button was pressed me hands were shaking really bad!! :cry: I reckon the more i practise the better i'll cope ...i hope?! :S

:D

I'd probably be too tipsy after two glasses, lol! :$

But a stiff drink seems to be the answer, cheers peeps!! ;)
