Members ChitownTerror Posted December 21, 2006 Members Share Posted December 21, 2006 I usually pan guitars and vocals, not the bass or drums. Am I violating some great law of mixing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Daeveed Posted December 21, 2006 Members Share Posted December 21, 2006 Originally posted by Wilbo26 Panning is good. hahaha, sure, I didn't say it was bad by any means, it's just unconventional, and I wanted to know what the specific reason for it was.

Am I violating some great law of mixing? I always thought the only law to mixing was to not have it sound like ass. But I do think its standard to center the rhythm section. I think it would be awesome to have a drum kit mic'd up and have everything panned out all crazy-like. If only quad was the standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or have the bass slowly panning from one side to the other and back? That'd be so horribly disorienting I might try it on a new mix. Just to {censored} with the rest of my band, of course.

Going a bit off topic here.I studied Audio & Acoustics Engineering in University, and when I was in my second year, one of the seniors' thesis was a quad set of headphones...oh man we had fun listening to that thing.I wonder why nobody mass produced them...EDIT: too many typos.

Members ChitownTerror Posted December 21, 2006 Members Share Posted December 21, 2006 On a completely unrelated note, does anyone know a good web-based and free music hosting site? I've got some mixes I'm trying to put on the web, but I don't have the time to sort out what's wrong with my webpage nor use Myspace. We can even make a clips thread out of it!
