I’m going to demonstrate this with a busy Live Loops session where every single sound is panned centrally and even the sounds recorded in Stereo which gently ‘lean’ to one side, still feel as though they’re primarily occupying space in the middle of the mix. Exploring the Direction Mixer, Stereo Pan placements, Automation, the Haas Effect and other techniques too, we can provide a much greater sense of width and therefore, additional mix space. I’ll also explain why Pan and stereo enhancement techniques feel ‘so extreme’ on headphones but why it’s in our interest to be bold when it comes to finding a space for each sound within our mixes.
