Description
Audio mixing begins with mastering filters, EQ, and automation to shape and refine sound within a DAW. Dynamic range processing, signal flow, and temporal effects like delay and reverb enhance mixes, whether using hardware or software tools. Spatial effects, group routing, and advanced editing techniques like pitch/time manipulation and Fourier analysis allow for creative precision and polished results. Expanding into postproduction, concepts like SMPTE and sound design bring audio to life for video and gaming, merging technical expertise with artistic storytelling.
