A Newbie (No Mixing/Audio knowledge) Podcaster local live music promoter...looking for others possibly doing something similar?
Hey everyone — I’m George Marsh from Williamsburg, VA. For the past 5 years I’ve been promoting local live music across Williamsburg, Yorktown, Gloucester, Toano, Charles City, and New Kent through my free community calendar at 757livemusic.com. It’s a passion project where musicians, bands, and venues can submit events, and I help get the word out. I created a mediakit.757livemusic.com that explains my story..no worries I am not selling anything just putting it out there so you can understand where I am coming from and what lead me here! I also run a podcast interviewing local artists and promoters — 16 episodes in so far, all self-taught along the way. Check it out at theredshoespodcast.com Now I’m diving deeper into audio as I launch a livestream Original Song Showcase series for local singer-songwriters. My setup is built around a QSC TouchMix 8 with a Shure SM58 for vocals and a Radial ProDI for acoustic guitar. The mix runs into a RØDECaster Pro II and then into a Mac Mini using Ecamm Live to broadcast to Facebook and YouTube. The goal is simple: deliver a clean, consistent, great-sounding mix for the online listener so each artist is represented at a high level. I’ve reached out to a few friends who run sound for local bands, but they’re slammed this time of year—so like my podcast, I may be learning this as I go. Would love to connect with anyone experienced in mixing acoustic/vocal performances for livestreams or working in small studio environments. George "Red Shoes" Marsh

Wanted the song to have that emotion bc that's what the vocals reminded me of. Thanks for listening :)

Metering
When I want to set meter in the cube, Using [ SSL Meter Pro ], do I put the meter at track level or on [stereo out]? If I put it on stereo out , do I put it in inserts or post?

If you meter post fader on your ST Out just remember that A: you will be metering your fader position ( which should be at 0 but that is not always the case. B: You will be metering any room correction and such AND if you have insert FX they will be changing what you see. If you place it Pre Fader put it after all other Pre Fade FX. That way you will be metering your MIX . OR,,, if you run other insert FX on mixbus you could put an instance in first slot, then FX1, FX2, FX3, then one more instance in last slot. That gives you a before and after view on your Mix buss. Beyond that you can place meters anywhere you want to see whatever you want to see.

Stereo field Doubt
can anybody tell me why the stereo field of this reference track looks like this. it looks like there is a ceiling from each side. this is from a song Dear Future Husband by Meghan Trainor.

It looks like their processors are clamping down on high energy and width. Hard to say exactly what. The bass is causing it. You can watch and listen. Maybe the kick and bass. Can't say for sure but my best guess is a mono restriction or rather width restriction on those two instruments to keep them more in the mono realm. As opposed to a peak limiter, think like a width limiter. How exactly it was done, I can't say.

To me the sidestick is too prominant. Leans towards a hard plastic sound rather than a warm wood sound with a touch more reverb in Karen Carpenters playing. Listen to the Karen & Ella version on YT. ETA: Actually the 1973 Re-Master you can really hear her drums and the bass a lot better.

@Pablo Montilla Not necessarily. Imagine if Marilyn Manson or Bob Marley had covered it. They probably would not learn the original as is. They would get a chord chart, melody and lyrics and then do what they feel / imagine. They will still be covers. If you keep the same harmony and melody especially. You can change the rhythm, instruments, dynamics, etc..
