The MixChecker Plug-in Review
Are you familiar with the MixChecker plug-in from Audified? This thing is very cool. We’ve often said that if you can’t have a perfect listening room when mixing your music down, then you should listen to your test mixes on as many different systems in as many rooms (even your car) as possible. I always do that. The car listening tests are usually especially helpful.

Distortion Used During Mixdown
The word “distortion” sounds inherently bad. Even the definition of the word in the dictionary suggests it is some wrong version of something else:-P. But guitarists have been using it to create cool sounding electric tones for decades. So in the audio world, distortion can often add character and something interesting to your sound.
