I have watched 3 of the videos. Great job and all credit to you for taking the time to create these videos and share them. The only minor problem I had was understanding that thick Irish accent.  Cheers Greg

Ok guys, Well the full mix tutorial is done and dusted, although I will do another one in the future in a different genre. I was now hoping to get some feedback and ideas on what people wanna see me cover next. All suggestions and requests welcome.
Thanks,
Andrew

Nice one Andrew - thanks for your efforts.
Where to next? - diversity I guess:

As far as genre goes, I would prefer Rock but whatever you do would be great.
Is it worth spending time showing how you capture the tracks in the first place or has that been done to death?
What do you look for when setting setting up a mic or direct recording of an instrument? What are the key things to get right up front?
Can those concepts be tied in with a mixing tutorial so we would understand how they relate?
Thanks again for the videos!

Thanks man, I was gonna stick with mixing but yeah I could do some vids on how I record and wat I'm looking for, although I wouldn't be as proficient at recording as I am at mixing. Definitely something I will look at though. Thanks

Thanks, I was thinking about doing somethings more specific than a full mix. Things like my take on gain structure or eq tips or compression or anything really that I can go in depth on. Thanks for your suggestion.

Thanks for sharing! I just finished the first video and looking forward to cranking through the rest of them this weekend.
As far as what type of genre you could do next, I'd be in favor of a kickin' rock song with lots of vocal layers! Queen is still recording stuff, right? :)
It's very generous of you to post a comprehensive video series like this for all to see, so thanks again for your efforts!

No worries, Streckfus, I'm releasing a couple of EPs under my pseudonym 'The Indie Pirate' and I'll probably do a full mix series on one or 2 of the songs, One of the songs is being mixed in a competition over @ www.ratethemix.com and is being judged by Warren Huart, producer for Aerosmith and the Fray. I like doing the videos cos I learn and refresh my toolset from doing them. Thanks for watching.

You are clearly a noob, and this isn't music. This is, uh, techno whatever.
For anyone listening to his nonsense, I recommend you follow no advice about the stereo importance of bass frequencies.
use a good plugin with bass filtering, and set the level you want to be RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE.
The bottom end, and subs, have no business in the stereo world. Remember this, or follow dork-boys advice. Your call, but I've been doing this 30 years. I love noobs, right up until they start trying to teach the world dumb tricks which go against everything you'll ever actually want to consider.

In reply to the post by tomatoes.dll, (aka Joe Walter), here is the link to the full mix series where I mix a country song containing 3 guitars, drums, bass guitar and vocals, interestingly I don't talk about the stereo importance of bass frequencies. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9ePd5CgeBZ0a_ROe0F3ws2HKypmCXDQmThanks for watching guys, and Ignore the Trolls.

I'll see your 30 years and raise you another 15, Joe.  And I agree with you that anything under 500Hz should usually go right down the middle. But your condescending tone is offensive. Surely you can find a way to express a contrary view without resorting to cheap name-calling. Your arguments will carry more weight if you keep it civil and objective. Instead, everyone who reads your post will see "dork-boy" and dismiss you as a crank, regardless of whether or not your technical point has merit.
 All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to. My Stuff

Actually bitflipper, this was a troll I reckon, He must not have looked at the videos, He mentioned in the videos it's a techno song, it's actually a country song, and anyone who has watched the videos can verify that I at no point mention anything about the stereo importance of bass frequencies. This guy 'Joe Walter' has liked my facebook pages and has sent me a message about getting involved in a business idea. If you look at the comments in my video on session set up it's all there. Click on the name 'tomatoes.dll' and it brings you to his profile and there low and behold is his real name 'Joe Walters' I expect some people to do things differently to the way I do things, and I say so in my videos, I only show the way I work and anything I show is only to help others in a way I wish I had been helped.

Hey everyone, I'm not sure how to explain this, or even where to start, except for, I suppose, the most intelligent idea is to make an immediate apology.
I am so friggin' sorry about my words here. They were not intended for this audience, nor were they even related to it. Somehow, I got two things crossed up, and posted on the wrong one.
I can not excuse it, but I hope you all understand that my criticism was NOT INTENDED on this forum, nor was it in any way aimed at the work being done here.
I have never been more embarrassed in my life, and am so sorry for hurting another who was innocent of any crime. Just one of those moments when, perhaps, my emotions about the degredation of the art of mixing met my lack of ability to realize I was posting in the wrong place!
I hope as much as the anger is shown (legitimately), perhaps forgiveness can be shown?
Thanks guys. And again, I am truly sorry and humbled.

Tomatoes,
It takes a real man. A BIG man to own up to a mistake and apologize. Way to go.
I still think whoever your post was meant for didn't deserve the bashing you gave though ;-)

Joe, your apology and retraction are wholeheartedly accepted, and as Gavin says it takes a big man to step up and apologize, Mistakes can be made and hopefully this doesn't put you off enjoying my videos. As far as I'm concerned it's case closed, lets move on brother and forget about it. Your friend in mixing Andrew

Great service to the community!!! Thanks for the videos, I really enjoy seeing Sonar in action. Its much better than seeing a rehash of the UI. They are also an inspiration to get creative!!!
Big Thanks,
