With the foundation of the mix formed in episode 2, Fab continues the mix, taking some time to put on his producer hate and focus on the performances and arrangement of the track.

Watch as Fab:

Auditions alternate software synthesizers to add a different texture to the keyboard parts

Tweaks the song’s form by cutting and inserting time in sections

Plays with the arrangement by muting parts to create special moments and hooks throughout the track

Uses side chain compression to duck the vocal delay while the vocal is signing

Tweaks the timing of the drum loop in spots to rush and drag to give the feel of a live drummer

Adds an additional drum parallel bus with a different envelope and texture to add intensity to the percussion tracks

Dials in a Fairchild 660 on the bass guitar for added control

Works on the relationship of the kick drum and bass guitar

Phase Aligns his kick drum sample with the loop

Discusses monitoring levels
