I get the computer vs live mix debate though - I find some ProTools >mixes
boring but I really think it's just the person behind the mouse.
isn't part of the reason why most mix cd's sound lame is because of the fact
that a mix on cd is something completely different from a mix in a club? mr
fingers 'washing machine' sounds completely different when listening to it
at home, compared to hearing it on loud speakers in a club! this has nothing
to do with using a computer for the mixing part, or doing it live, and
everything with the intention off the mixer [as MEK stated] if my memory is
correct, didn't derrick may make mix tapes for the radio, where he would
record a set, and cut it to pieces, to end up with a one hour mix? i think
mix cd's should be approached like that a lot more [though lisencing
problems might be a bit more of a problem.] and a computer could be used to
achieve that.
on another note, i believe strongly that you should make mistakes while
mixing... i'm not talking trainwrecking all night, but mixing seemless for
an entire evening will [imho] make your set sound sterile and lets you loose
focus on the music, whereas small mistakes will get your attention, and
thereby give more attention to the music you're playing.
