I completely agree , nobody should actually be surprised by this . Especially since Spez literally made the site . <| sep |> If TD goes due to these liberal cuck admins we protest the site like butthurt paid Clinton CTR protestors . Begun , the Spez wars have . Power corrupts absolute power corrupts absolutely . <| sep |> Finished a pop song with 98 tracks before mixing . Consolidating as you go is my preferred editing method , but unfortunately changes had to be made consistently . The advance popedm mixes out there split tracks to split frequencies , so they ' re easier to mix independent and pan differently . You end up with an absurd amount of tracks when you start doing this . I know of one mixing engineer specifically that ends up with around 16 tracks for one kick . It sounds like a lot , but that ' s 8 stereo tracks , likely three pairs for frequency separation , three pairs for the compressed versions , and two pair for samples with no freq splitting , perhaps one compressed and one raw . There ' s such a marginal difference even when doing all of this , but when you ' re talking about getting the most coverage from a sound as prominent as a kick , without running into other sounds , it can definitely help . A lot of them will consolidate that to one stereo track when they ' re done though , for simplicity , and so other eyes can ' t examine their techniques .
