Marcella Araica LUKE JAMES “GO GIRL” Deconstructing A Mix 38 TUTORIAL

Join us at Dream Asylum Studios in Miami for our second installment on hybrid mixing with Marcella Araica! In this series, the acclaimed engineer gives you an insight into the creation of ‘Go Girl’ by Luke James. She recounts the various stages of tracking, discusses production by Danja, and demonstrates her techniques by remixing the multi-track! You’ll see how Marcella groups certain parts, runs audio through hardware, and further enhances the signals ‘in the box’. She explains why she incorporates certain equipment into a workflow that combines the power of both analog and digital tools. Using plug-ins, outboard gear, and a SSL 9000J console, Araica shows you how she processes drums, percussion, 808, synth bass, guitars, and vocals!
