Hey everyone today i want to talk about opening up your mix all of us want mixes that sound wide and opening and you can hear every instrument, so I'm going to teach you a great way to open your mix and it is supper easy and it's like the oldest trick in the book because its that easy.
So first thing i want to tell you is something about guitars in your mix, guitars are that number one instrument that just fills up our mixes really easy and over powers all the other instruments so to make a mix sound more open is to mute some of those guitars. So lets say your coming out of a chorus into a verse and you want the verse to sound more open and less powerful. So hears an idea for you instead of having a strumming acoustic guitar over powering the mix go for a picking acoustic guitar in the verse and then the drums still there and the bass guitar and then maybe have like a organ in the back round to fill up the low end and also have the vocals after the verse is done and your going back lets say a chorus then you can bring the strumming acoustic guitar back in. Now I'm not saying that you cant have a strumming acoustic guitar through your whole song i have many songs where i did strumming acoustic guitars, what I'm saying is you just need to know how to control them and not let it over power your mix by learning how to control all your instruments you will be able to have a great mix
