PINK NOISE
Pink noise is a type of noise that has equal energy per octave. This means that it has a similar frequency spectrum to many types of music. As a result, pink noise can be a useful tool for balancing a mix.
To use pink noise to balance a mix, you can follow these steps:
-
Download our pre-recorded pink noise file.
-
Import the pink noise file into your session
-
The level of the pink noise should be set to a comfortable listening level.
-
Solo each track in your mix one by one and adjust the level so that it is just barely audible above the pink noise.
-
Once you have adjusted the level of each track, unmute all of the tracks in your mix.
-
Listen to your mix and make any final adjustments to the levels as needed.
Pink noise is a great tool for balancing a mix, but it is not a substitute for good mixing technique. It is important to use your ears and listen to your mix carefully.
