Production Q&A #4

New Production Q&A posted to my blog:

http://tarekith.com/production-qa-4/

This time I cover the topics:

  1. Can you detail your process for getting big, warm bass, big kick drum, mixing them together and keeping them big without the inevitable frequency conflicts?

  2. Why isn’t stem mastering used more? Does it sound worse than regular mastering?

  3. How important is the acoustic treatment of the studio, in particular the treatment of bass? Is it fundamental for the production, or is it something that’s just nice to have if you can?

Just a quick note about the blog notifications going forward. If you like the blog and the things I post, please take a second RIGHT NOW to sign up for email notifications of new posts (on the right hand side of the page). Or follow me on Twitter, RSS, or Facebook via the icons at the top of the screen in the link above. This is the last time I’m going to announce new blog posts on the various forums I visit, unless the topic directly has something to do with one of those forums. Going forward, new posts will only be announced via one of the methods above. Sorry, but it’s starting to come across as a little spammy according to some people, and I don’t want to make that impression. Thanks!
