The Art of Mixing - Video Boxed Set (VHS)

The #1 all-time bestselling book on mixing comes to life in over three and a half hours of vivid, detailed animated instruction in this great new two-video set! With Gibson's exclusive 3D visual framework, you'll learn the right way to create every style of mix for any style of music. Video 1 focuses on the visual representations of audio imaging and studio equipment. It provides an introduction to the visual framework achieved from representing sounds in mixes. Covers: the specific correlations between audio parameters and video parameters, volume (front/back), panning (left/right), frequency (up/down), and time. It also gives descriptions and visuals of the functions of compressors, limiters, noise gates, equalization, delays, flanging, chorusing, phasing and reverb. Video 2 uses the visual framework introduced in the first video to explain how to use studio equipment to create various types of mixes. It teaches viewers the basic concept of making a mix that is appropriate for the music and song, and lets them explore the complete range of possibilities available to the engineer in a mix using volume, panning, EQ and effects.
