mixing it

Digizine is always worth a look (sorry, link opens without the frames, which is the only way I could link to this article); there have been a lot of useful articles over the months. I've got David Franz's book (probably the first edition though, because the new one covers Version 6, which isn't all that different).

What I dislike about mixing is that it's all about using your ears, and my ears are rubbish. Also your listening environment is crucial, and you can mess things up by just having a desk that vibrates, or a room that's the wrong shape, or with surfaces that interact badly with your sounds. This is before you get started on the quality of your monitor speakers and what they're sitting on.
