Getting an inside look at a professional mix guided by the engineer is a valuable learning tool for everyone from novice to expert. In this creative field we develop drastically varying strategies to accomplish the best version of a mix. We choose different hardware and software tools, process signals in different sequences, choose different effects for creative interest, and SO much more. Ask ten different industry professional engineers to do the same task and you very well may see ten totally different approaches.
