| Who's using VU METERS...?
As I read more and more interviews with seasoned Mixers, often VU levels come up casually specifically with regards to snare, kick and bass. In the age of more and more hybrid systems, is this still something that is very relevant and integrated into mixing? Low end is often one of the hardest things to balance and it seems like as many perspectives as possible are useful. Or is this just a legacy technique that was unique to mixing to tape?
Not discounting a balanced room (that you know), plus listening on small/consumer speakers, and then maybe the opposite, listening on a full spectrum system, maybe with a subwoofer, BUT...
...how (or how often) are you pro mixers using this other way of "hearing" what is going on?
