Hey guys, Ive been trying to keep track of this forum for a little bit now, but it's real hard for me to pick up anything starting from scratch (in terms of music production knowledge). Hope this doesn't seem too noobish of me but I was wondering if the smart people on this board could give me a small walkthrough (with specifics) on how to do some real basic productions on a rock/metal song. Nothing too fancy, just walk me through the "necessary" steps of mixing a song to qualify it for the "produced" title, hope that makes sense. Im using Cubase, and I can get whichever plugins you guys recommend or try to deal with the stuff that comes with Cubase. Just would love to know how to get my songs to sound more powerful with more depth etc.. like which frequencies to boost for which instruments and compress guitars?!? drums?!? and any other stuff that is really needed in a decent song production. Would greatly appreciate any help. Thanks.
