A very good visual guide for recording, engineering and production is "The Art of Mixing" by David Gibson. It will help you to visualize your mix and how to proper set your eqs, levels, pans, and how to fatten a sound according to the fundamental/root frequency you want to enhance. It has visuals and charts for each kind of mix Heavy metal, Big Beat, Hip Hop, Reggae you name it check it out. Afterwards some of the functions on the 4k with make more sense. :D

Check out www.courseptr.com for the book and www.VirtualMixer.com for the examples of the printed materials, classes and a visual program that the author patented. And the site binger recommends also for tips on mixing. I just got the book last week and it helped out my mixes 10 fold just using the 4k. I have pro tool 001 as my DAW but I haven`t recorded anything since moving to my new crib last month. I still have to unpack and organize the studio. The other guide "The Art of Producing" is nice also. I got alot of beats to remix down so I check you later. :D

I`m gonna drop this here too cuz the freak in you is coming out and who the fu!k know what else is in your depraved mind. It must have been the G.E.D. and tossing salads in the men`s room.

I thought i look it up for you since youre having such a hard time compensating your dicksize with your forum-status and your MPC4k.

Because you cant come up with anything original you lose your temper and blame me for jerking of to little boys???? Nothing i said can make you conclude that, its your own perverted mind wich is projecting your own sexual deficits. Im a perfectly healthy heterosexual man, and there is nothing i said wich can make anyone think otherwise.

losing your self-esteem??

Dont force me to bring up some facts about Asian poeple concerning the size of a certain bodypart. That would not be my style.

I guess you have a hard time in real life making friends
