Thanks to our sponsors at Soundtoys, we get to bring you some key highlights from Marc McClusky‘s unforgettable MixCon presentation, in which he walks us through a real working mix for Motion City Soundtrack.
Marc shows us his overhead treatments, his methods for tasteful and organic sample augmentation, his approach for making snares punch using a variety of plugins, and then ties it altogether by letting us hear what Soundtoy’s Decapitator can do—from outright mangling of room mics to subtle drive on drum buss.
Check out the post-event interview below, where he discusses his approach to setting up delays using Echo Boy, or skip right to the MixCon presentation highlights:
