aux tracks to discrete outputs or internal
busses, accordingly). Then I created one
mix snapshot on the console where all
the faders were set to 0dB, and I hardpanned
odd and even channels left and
right. Working this way allowed me to
get Hal mixes very quickly!
Hal was known for doing/wanting
things last minute. He would sometimes
send me emails in the middle of the night
saying he, a manager, or one of the artists
wanted to make a small change on
a mix even though we didn't have a day
booked at the studio.
I remember, when Hal sent a mix
to Devendra Banhart for an opinion,
he wrote a really sweet email that Hal
immediately read back to me in the
studio. Banhart complimented me by
saying that he usually is never happy
with a first mix, but this was one of the
rare instances he thought the first mix
was perfect!
Communication
When multiple revisions were necessary
for technical things or edits, Hal
would directly put me in touch with
the musicians to speed up the process.
For example, when we were mixing
the U2 and Elton John track, I was in
contact with The Edge, who wanted to
try a few different intro arrangements,
so we quickly went back and forth until
This method also offered four other significant advantages:
1. I could prep mixes on a plane and then open them at EastSide.
2. I could convert mixes back and forth and always have them with me if
somebody needed a quick revision.
3. I could automate panning in Pro Tools without having to write song-specific
automation on the board.
4. In the few instances where we had to mix a song at Flux, I could just set all
the faders to zero and get to work right away.
