​Project and Portfolio 4 | Audio Production & Sound design

The Portfolio 4 project details variation remixes for a selected song which in this case, is Admiral Crumple-Keeps on moving. This was a good example of a great storytelling recording artist. The most important part of my workflow for this project involves proper tempo mapping within Logic Pro. The sections below are where you can preview some of my remix variations, and read about the sound design process details, and mastering details.

I found a couple of indoor, small crowd foleys online. I imported the mp3 files into a new Logic Pro session. My mixing process was simple, yet paid attention to detail. Once I topped and tailed the foley tracks, I added silver verb, Gain reduction, mid-range boost, and pre-mastering to each, accordingly. I wanted to add depth and reflection to 2 of the crowd tracks, which I accomplished with about 14-18% reverb. I then spliced my audio tracks into clips and arranged them to my taste. Each track has fade-in and outs for smooth transitions. The acapella stem has stereo panning automation from slight left to center to right and then reversed, for an on-stage presence feel. I’ve also added automated binaural panning for the crowd tracks. My master track has Ozone 9, Fresh Air, Limiter, and compressor for the final output. I wanted my project to remind people of actual experiences they may have had at a live event, which is why many of the mixing techniques used here are important, in regard to the objective of this scene/variation. These are also method I would use for film scoring.
