Mixing Question!??

[Powder Kutz]

If you have no treatment you shouldn't be mixing....wait.....let me say that again.....IF YOU HAVE NO TREATMENT YOU SHOULDN'T BE MIXING. Without treatment you are trying to make accurate decisions after hearing music thru a "room" filter. Tweaking your monitors, you are attempting to band-aid something that needs to be corrected the right way. Those high filters aren't meant to fix problems...some people prefer their speakers brighter than others. I'm guessing you aren't using a reference track either?

1/3 Environment (no treatment)
1/3 Engineer
1/3 Equipment
= your mix

Wait till you move and set up correctly or you will be re-mixing and re-mixing and eventually bang a hole in the wall with your forehead out of frustration. Guess how much money i would want back if you tried mixing my track without any treatment? All of it? I think so!

If your mixes don't translate well, you shouldn't be charging money to clients. Wait til you get your new space, get some treatment in there, work on your skills and then charge your clients once you're fully ready.

Adjusting the hi trims may help a little. If you are moving soon, you can still do some acoustic treatment. You can make standard rigid fiberglass absorbers and basstraps that can be totally portable. The acoustic treatment will help more than anything else.

I don't really agree with the advice that you shouldn't mix until your room is treated. Unless you have an unlimited budget, and you can build a mix room from scratch. I think monitoring at low volumes and using a reference track will help out a bit.
