Saturday, October 3rd. 6-8pm EST. On Zoom. I'm teaming up with Mathew Steele of SteeleSync for a live listening and feedback session. Mathew's been placing indie music in sync for 13 years. His roster has landed songs in Limitless , The Family, Parks and Rec, Sons of Anarchy, and more. SteeleSync now represents over 100 artists! This is a real shot at direct feedback from someone who represents artists and licenses music for a living. Submit your best track and me and Matthew will tell you what's working and what's not. How to join: Zoom link: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/81026372711?pwd=Km2KxNfNkQIItjiOWQFtwajYDamL6u.1 How to submit a track for feedback: Send your Disco.ac or Spotify link to steelesyncatlanta@gmail.com before the call. Open to all Sync Vault members. Bring your questions.

Have you guys often wondered how compression works, let alone how to use a compressor. Today I came across an interesting post that has a very unique way of explaining compression. I hope this helps and possible gives you all a good laugh I was told this is pretty accurate, but without further ado here it is! Enjoy.

Doing a full brand refresh on The Sync Vault and I need your eyes on it. I've got 4 cover image options. Vote for your favorite in the comments (just say A, B, C, or D). Whichever gets the most votes goes live on the group.

Ok I did what we spoke about and here's the track with just the levels adjusted and I did it using the fader knobs (which felt so weird, haha), but any how let me know! https://s.disco.ac/xofoastknorz ACTUALLY LISTEN TO THIS ONE OR BOTH AND LET ME KNOW WHICH ONE YOU THINK IS LEVELED BETTER! https://s.disco.ac/hptwldspleqa

The mystery is over. Meet Tim Starnes. Tim Starnes has spent decades as a music editor and mixer on major film scores - credits include The Lord of the Rings trilogy (with composer Howard Shore), The Departed, Hugo, and The Aviator. He's also taught music editing at NYU's graduate film scoring program since 2007. I had the fortune of meeting him in 2021 and he was the stem mixer for 52 songs I produced for Blues Clues/Nickelodeon. He's joining us live for The Cinematic Mix Intensive. I asked Tim what trips up composers who mix their own music. We'll cover: • Gain staging and signal flow • When it's actually an EQ problem, and when it isn't • Why dumping plugins on the master bus doesn't fix what's wrong How it works: 4 cinematic and trailer composers will open their sessions live and get their mix diagnosed by Tim, plugin by plugin. Submit your track after signing up and get in the running for a live review. Not presenting? You'll still watch real mixes get broken down live and get your own questions answered in a Q&A at the end.
