i had to explain to my niece what a mix engineer does and this is the analogy i came up with:
the album is a photo
the recording engineer tells everyone where to stand, how to smile, puts the tall people in the back, short people in the front, etc.
the mix engineer takes the photo
the mastering engineer retouches it and frames/mattes it.
it might be a stretch, but i think if i could get a 7 year old to understand that good records are made with all of the above, then it might make a little sense
