I know some of you have already done this. I know some are on it right now. I am curious as to how/what you guys did or got to and such. I mean there is no one but ourselves checking out our work, unless we do a mentor call right? Well, we can check each others work out and then we can leave the more important things or whatever it may be for mentor calls. Though these are basics and probably as important as anything else, however trivial it may seem. Reference track analyses/eqing, do you guys build your profile with whole song, then eq by comparing the profiles? Or just parts of it here and there? Limiting to RMS -9, Did you do this over the entirety of the song, or by analyzing parts of the song? how did you go about achieving it? Some analyzers are momentary, and some build upon the value. Were you happy with the results after compression/saturation/EQ etc and then Limiting to -9RMS? Did you feel the changes were sufficient to the song mixes, or do you feel that they're just showing us some processes to ensure we understand what the tools do, to move forward? Something to get us all interacting I hope. \m/ I wasn't quite happy with the results I got, so I didn't bother saving the files even. But if you guys would like to check it or compare, I'll just redo a bit later when/if I get that chance. I redid it, not quite sure if it suffices. I struggled more this time, probably because I am not feeling too well and using different tools this time around. Personally... I don't even know what to think about it. https://drive.google.com/file/d/15SGlSUEk46TsGoM32lsLV50Zr-dJP-ef/view?usp=sharing

I plan to use this simply as a public journal. My notes will heavily focus on what I find most interesting and pertinent to the music I’m producing, which is focused mostly on vocals, with piano accompaniment (maybe sometimes Ukulele, if I can figure out how to record my daughter playing it). Because of that, I will still go through the lessons focused on other things (like drums, and stuff), but will not likely have many (if any) notes about that stuff (so NOT comprehensive). I also have the VIP Subscription, so this may have notes on stuff you do not yet have access to (which may or may not be confusing—I don’t know). Please also note that I don’t promise that my notes will be completely accurate, as I may not fully understand something when I make a note about it.
