There's a project currently being mixed by a protools mix guy here in Kansas
City, that I tracked my drums for in Paris at my place. He mentioned to the
guy I did the work for that I was tracking too hot. I've never heard a comment
like this before, and I've done plenty of stuff. The thing is, I've heard
really good things about this engineer, and the mixes I've heard so far sound
pretty good.
I don't have any overs when I track, but I usually get as much level as I
can before that. Usually within 3db from zero on Paris. There's no compression
before the convertors.
He says the plugs sound better if the tracks aren't cut too hot. I think
it's his methodology of using plugs with less head room. I've had plugs clip
(UAD) but I'll just insert a plug like the Paris vst eq before it (no eq
just lower the trim)and that takes care of it.
Anyway, for the sake of being opened minded, I'd be interested in any thoughts
on this. Especially from you guys who use protools or native platforms.
