The Flaws of Top Down Mixing! Why you should NOT do it!

In today's video I'm talking about the top down mixing method, and why I advocate against it. I know many people and mixing courses advocate for it, but unless you are a seasoned professional and work on similar songs all the time, it is extremely difficult to make it work without running into problems sooner or later. Multiple levels of compression are very difficult to manage, and without EQs on your individual tracks you risk sending bad sounding audio into your reverbs and delays as well. Not to mention revisions, which become very complicated as your mix is fully locked in. #mixing #mixengineer #martinmixing Visit www.martinmixing.com for masterclasses and collaborations! 00:00 Intro 00:20 Overview of top down mixing 02:35 the complexities of top down mixing 03:13 Top Down mixing forces you into a corner! 03:34 Logistical flaws of Top Down Mixing 04:17 Flaw 1, compression issues with Top Down Mixing 04:57 Your volume fader won't work properly! 05:40 Flaw 2, EQ issues, why it is better to EQ separately 07:34 Flaw 3, Your reverbs and delays will sound bad! 09:12 Flaw 4, Stems and Revisions to the mix will become very difficult to make 10:16 Just use Bottom Up mixing instead 10:40 Outro
