STAFF REPORT

Eli, Jacob and I met in the 5.1 mixing studio to work on the Von Krippon live mixdown. After a satisfying mix was acheived [minus the standing wave which was indesctructable] We bounced the stems down to our 6 5.1 mono stems. I have never mixed in 5.1 before and it was an interesting process to go through. Now came the hard part. Because none of us have ever used compressor, Final Cut or DVD maker pro we had to trudge our way through the commands not knowing anything. The most tedious was syncing our live audio to the non - timecode high quality DSLR footage that our friend was gracious enough to take, as all the camera equipment was inevitably booked for the weekend. However, this was not the most disturbing part of the experience. What was, was compressor. For whatever reason compressor does not let you choose the directory it dumps files into, or intuitively show you the progress bar. You must open as separate program in order to see that progress, which took a while to find, and in the meantime searching directories for files that had not yet been created but had seemingly been created instantly was quite frustrating. Finally we got everything into DVD maker pro, made a menu and all, and of course, the program claimed that the DVD was not formatted properly. OH THE HUMANITY.
Currently working on the Lost Babies mixes at my FLA studio.
