Mix Essentials questions
- Is this enough to mix a whole song?
- It covers de-essing, tone shaping, compression, transient control, width and final peak control. It does not include a reverb or delay, so you will still need those from elsewhere or from the free range.
- Why is Inflated Ego in a mixing bundle?
- Saturation is a mixing decision, not only a mastering one. It adds harmonics that help a part stay present at a lower level. Inflated Ego separates the main nonlinear stage from a second harmonic-output stage, so the amount and the character can be set independently.
- Can I use these on the mix bus?
- Berry Console, The G, Finish Him and BIG are all designed for bus use. Shusssh and Transient are usually track or group processors. Read each product page for the controls and the intended use.
Individual licences, one checkout
Every included plug-in has its own licence. Installers and activations are managed from one account, and buying a bundle does not replace a licence you already own.
