Nice work Kevin! Looking forward to reading it. If it’s as informative as your videos, I suspect it will be all anybody would need to know how to record and mix a great sounding tune.
Hey Gus. It’s actually look alot like the “Rock Mixing Video”. It will have Nathan Adams’ spin on it and that is always cool.
