This is the first garageband project I had ever done, and I learned a lot about using a DAW as I went along.  It is uses Apple Loops and some waveform editing to get all the effects. I recently remastered the song in Pro Tools so that it could sound its best.

2150 Electronic Portolio TEST Master

This is my favorite Mix fro Mus 2160, which was an introduction to Pro Tools.  It is a rendition of a Latin standard for guitar, vibes, bass and percussion.  When mixing it I tried to focus on the stereo image and punch of all the instruments.

2170 Electronic Portrolio Walking On Water 16

The CSU Stanislaus jazz combo was composed of Larry Smith on bass (also did most of the arrangement), Lemuel Abresinos on drums, Joban Aguilar on Soprano Sax, Nathan Pop on Trumpet, Jesus Ariaga on Trombone. This is an arrangement for jazz sextet of "My Time" by the band Minus the Bear.  It is a mixture of close miked instruments and a stereo ribbon on the room.  Some of the tones must be attributed to the instruments, not the performers or recording/mixing.  

3500 Electronic Portfolio My Time

This track is by Myosin, based out of Modesto CA.  I wanted to try my hand at music production from start to finish on a song that I think has a lot of character.  This is a mixture of Direct In instruments with drums and vocals that are ambiently recorded in the university music rehearsal room.

3510 Electronic Portfolio Myosin Effortly

This is another all Midi original, I jumped at the chance to work on it and had a lot of fun finding the tones. 

4250 Electronic Portfolio Alarms are Sounding

This is as song by Matt Eklund, it is very simple and straightforward mix-wise, my aim was to translate his ideas.  

4250 Elec Port Don't Fall 16

This is a track by Geoff Mulder playing a Blues standard called "Going to Chicago Blues".  The snare brush part was played in by myself and the vocal responses are song by Jason Young also in the Music Tech Program.  With this mix, I wanted to get the sound of an old record playing through midrange heavy speakers because I feel that it puts you in the space of a musty bar listening to a the band play their numbers. 

4250 Electronic Portfolio GTC

This is a piece written by Mason Bates for the Youtube Symphony called "Mother Ship".
The CSU Wind Ensemble makes it a point to play lots of new works and this one in particular called for pre-programed drumbeats and electronic sounds.  It was a pleasure and a challenge to mix this, it included setting up 3 different types of stereo recording: standard xy, spaced pair, and blumleins onstage.  

Masson Bates Mothership 16

This project was great to work on, there is lots of originality and excitement in the quartet.  It was recorded with an XY Earthworks stereo pair and Direct signals from all the live mics onstage.  My goal while mixing was to get a good stereo image of the players onstage.
