Producers Cafe Teach Music

Yesterday I went to TeachMusic in Rotterdam. They host from time to time a Producers Cafe session. Leon Hoeks from Native Instruments did an introduction to the two new entry controllers: The Traktor Kontrol S2 and Maschine Mikro. Looks like Native Instruments is on a downsize tour. For easy comparison was also the bigger version of both controllers present. But I didn’t drive all the way to Rotterdam for just that…

My personal interest was the mini mastering setup in the basement. Using IK Multimedia’s T-Racks some for me new tricks where discussed on getting more control over a mixed down track. By using the stereo imaging and mid channel you can do a lot more then you expect at first. With T-Racks this becomes pretty easy.
