Secret Sonics 165 - Andrew Maury and Jesse Ray Ernster Answer Your Burning Questions (Recording of Live AMA Event)

Mixing phenoms Andrew Maury and Jesse Ray Ernster return to the podcast in a live AMA event that was recorded last month. In this conversation, Andrew and Jesse answered some of your burning questions and we went deep on so many topics including being overly self-critical, deliverables (what Andrew and Jesse actually provide their clients), Atmos, analog summing (and is it worth it?), saturation, and plugin development. We chat about monitoring, reconnecting with the kid in you, prioritizing elements within the mix, being a friend to the artists you work with, what really went into mixing Burna Boy's latest record, the attack wall, and so much more! Check it out!
