The Questionnaire on Final Mix

 

Use this questionnaire to help you focus on your final mix. When you answer these questions, keep in mind the style in which you have mixed the song. 

 

 

Equalization

1) How would you describe the overall mix's bandwidth?

2) How would you categorize the mix's frequency response?

3) How would you describe the tonal integration (the blend) of individual sounds?

 

Dynamics

1) How would you describe the overall mix's dynamics?

2) Are your mix level changes smooth or choppy?

3) How would you describe the individual instruments' dynamics within the mix?

4) Are there any performances or tonal changes that you have made jump in or out in an unnatural way? If then, why?

 

Levels

1) How are the mix levels?

  • Vocal/Music balance
  • Drums/Instrument balance

 

Soundfield

  • Is the mix in mono or stereo? If in mono, why did you choose it?
  • What did you pan, how far to the left and right and why?

 

Panoramic balance

  • Is your left/right mix balanced (width)?
  • Is the front/rear balanced (depth)?

 

Effects

  • What effects did you use? On what instruments?
  • How/where were the effects placed within the mix?
  • How were the effects integrated within the mix?
  • Do the effects enhance or detract from the mix?

 

Performance

1) Background vs. Featured instruments

  • Blend/Integration, Relationship

2) Is the mix dynamic? Is it static or in motion?
