Hey Chris,
I don't mix with others in the room anymore. I couldn't stand the =
learning curve
that invariably took a complete 10 or more tracks for the band to learn =
the method.
I spend time understanding the bands concept of their production, I give =
my input, we agree=20
and then I mix. Once a mix is very very close to complete I email them =
a copy to get their=20
input again. Usually we're good, if not, it's one more time or have one =
or two members visit for
final tweaks. This is much less stressful for me and more fun/creative =
in general. I am usually
easy on the hourly rate just for the freedom it provides me. Everyone =
wins this way and
no silly comments in the control room at the most inopportune times.
