I spent some years as a studio rat recording and mixing in various Chicago area facilities before I started specializing in mastering back in the 1990's. Sometimes I miss mixing. Found a wonderful source or raw tracks through Telefunken while doing some "mixing boot camps" with fresh, live theatre audio engineers. These are some quick mixes I came up with just for fun and demonstration purposes.

NOTES: This was one of the first Telefunken Labs multitracks that I found for a live mixing boot camp. Wasn't familiar with this bunch before, but what a great group of musicians. Very energetic. Lots of instrumentation yet still, lots of space for mixing fun. Note the freaky stereo echoes on the vocals and lead guitars (which of course were fed back strongly into the vocal reverb to put them in the same space). After a couple hours messing with this, I missed doing mixing. Actually considering getting back into it....

TECH SPECS: The mix was assembled in Samplitude Pro X (4) using mostly Samplitude's stock plugs. The mix was monitored through and processed with some very gentle and subtle analog processing including my main EQ (dubbed the MES-351 MS), Rupert Neve's Portico II Master Buss Processor and some very light sweetening on the return path with Crane Song's HEDD 192 AD.

Can't thank the band and Telefunken enough for making these tracks available. This is what source material should sound like.
