I've been trying to mix ONE song for the better part of three weekends. Like - all fucking day.
Ears get fried. You start hearing things in a microscope and pretty soon to can't hear the music as a whole. I've started over several times. So incredibly frustrarting.
Maybe you get everything sounding good, except the bass. You alter the bass and then the kick drum gets screwed up. So you work on the kick drum; maybe add more bottom, them the vocals are dead. AHHHH!
Recording the stuff is relatively easy. Mixing is like trying to stack marbles.
