Before buying analog equipment for mixing...
Is it worth investing in mixing hardware? Before spending your money, watch this video!
Many people ask me if it's really worth using analog equipment in the day-to-day studio work or if plugins are already sufficient. Today, I took advantage of the fact that I'm mixing in a hybrid way (hardware + plugins) to touch on a point that few people mention about using hardware.
In this video, I show a little of what I currently use in my mix bus to explain why, sometimes, the best processing is "bypass".
