New DVD Shares Pro Mixing Secrets

Ask Video has announced Mixing With The Pros, the first ASK Video DVD to step outside specific products and help musician's create top-quality professional mixes.

In more than 3 hours of the most high-quality video available, mixing veteran James Tuttle shows how EQs, compressors, limiters, reverbs, delays, amp simulators, automation, and mastering plug-ins are all used to construct a mix that has clarity, depth, punch, pop, and sizzle. Tuttle approaches each instrument or track individually and examines set-up, adjustments, editing, and automation. He shows how the final settings for each and every plug-in in the mix are attained, not as one-off uses of presets, but as continual adjustments to produce a final mix that breathes life into the music.

"After learning their main application through our Tutorial DVDs, musicians and producers have asked us for training on broader production theory and techniques that they can apply to their music," states Steve Kostrey, CEO of ASK Video. "Mixing With The Pros helps musicians produce an exciting, interesting, and inspired mix!"

Perfect for both beginners or professionals who desire new perspective and modern techniques, this tutorial can be applied to any software or hardware-based mixing systems. The DVD-Rom includes all of the individual source files for the song ("Incognito" by John McVey) to be loaded into a Mac or PC DAW system and follow along. Bonus material in the form of interviews and extra commentary on mixing are also included.
