Description: Join us for an exciting series with renowned custom mixer Chad Blake! Filmed in his private studio in Wales, this episode reveals some of his latest tools and techniques as he remixed The Kills’ “Love Is A Deserter”. Working entirely “in the box,” Chad shares his Pro Tools session template, reviews the material, and articulates his goals for the new mix. You’ll see how he sets up his basic chain from the very beginning and tweaks it by applying different treatments to tracks and groups. You’ll learn about its latest plugin options for saturation, modulation, excitation, dynamics and more. In addition to mixing, Blake also reworks parts of the session and adds samples to further enhance the recording!
