Opening up the mix
Many producers obsess over creating a wide stereo image, and there is something undeniably exciting about opening up a mix in this way.
Mixing for a club environment, however, it is important to consider mono-compatibility as most listeners will not hear the stereo mix as intended. Stereoizer does not add artificial reverb, chorus or delay, resulting in superb mono-compatibility.
Morgan Page also uses Monofilter to tighten up the low end for bass-heavy mixes.
The kick drum
“I do a lot of monoing of the bass. The kick drum is at such a high level in the mix, eating up so much of the energy.”
Every element needs space
After taking care of the low end, Page employs widening tools; "I'm trying to get things away from the kick drum and away from the vocal, really push things to the sides."
Mono translation
For a mix to work well in different rooms, it's essential to have mono compatibility; "NUGEN stuff is really good, it really translates to mono. It still hits hard in mono but also has the width in stereo."
A quick workflow
For Page, it's about using tools that help him quickly define a mix. A quick workflow helps preserve the creative moment. NUGEN Audio keeps him in the moment.
"Monofilter is really good, it really translates to mono. I haven't really found other plug-ins to work as well for that, they fall apart in mono."
