Lauryn Hill"Lu Diaz is a musician a producer and a label owner, he is not your average engineer. He understands this business so he brings a perspective that very few mix engineers can. 


Daddy Yankee"El le pone el Hip Hop a la musica". "He puts the hip hop in the mix".

Abebe Lewis Circle House Studios Mixing engineers come and go and believe me I seen them come and go through our studio. Lu is a true mix engineer in every sense of the word. He is a producer so he understands how important sound is to a producer, he is also a musician so he has a sense of musicality when it comes to drops in the mix and crazy effects and arrangements. I feel like a lot of times he goes beyond the mixing realm helps producers especially young up and coming producers sound like they are veterans in the game. When it comes to sound engineers especially mix engineers Lu is one of the best I've seen! 

 Nasty Beat Makers ""Lu gets our tracks sounding right!! Banging, snares and kicks are hittin!! his mixes are crazy". He killed "All I Do IS Win"

 

 

Additional Information:

Here are some helpful definitions that may help clear up some questions

Audio Engineer, Sound Engineer, Recording Engineer:

     Is the part of audio science that deals  with recording, reproduction of audio, by way of electronic  means. This field requires many different specialties like electrical engineering, acoustics, psychoacoustics and music. An audio engineer deals with sound in a musical sense and not in a sound control sense  In this digital age audio engineers are required have a pretty extensive understanding  of computer hardware and software. 

Mix Engineer:

     A mix engineer, sometimes  referred to as "mixer", is the sound engineer who, once all the music and vocals are recorded, performs what's called the "final mix" or "mixdown" of a song. Hence the term "mix engineer". He or she takes all the sounds like drums, bass guitar, piano, guitar, vocals and so on, and blends or mixes them together, with the purpose of achieving the right balance of the instruments and vocal volumes. A mix engineer knows what it is suppose to sound like for commercial release. Remember that this is a very specialized industry and anyone can get a degree in audio engineering, but there are very few who can perform a final mix the right way, that is the reason why a great mix engineer or mixer is in such high demand.

Comment:

     I think it's important to mention that a sound engineer, music engineer, mix engineer, mixing engineer or what ever you want to call them, is a vital part of your projects sound. Many sound engineers are very well trained and schooled, but the single most important quality in a mix engineer is his or hers flight hours, meaning how long have they been mixing music. Mixing is a craft that improves with the time the mixing engineer spends mixing. The human ear develops over time, taking sound pictures if you will.  The mix engineers ears begin to make a mental audio map of certain sound frequencies and attributes. Like with any other profession,  practice and work experience make perfect. So remember to note when booking a mix engineer you are depending on their ears to make your mix sound the way it should. Allot of people make the mistake of assuming that a world class mixing studio will make your music sound right, well the answer is NO. The mix engineer is truly the one which will make or break your mix, so as they say in the halls of every major music mixing facility in the world "It's not the equipment it's the operator" So the best thing you could do to find out who really has the chops for mixing is .... listen to their mixes. find out what mix engineer mixed what and that will give you a good idea if you would hire them to work on your music!

Here are the different ranks of a sound engineer:

 Assistant recording engineer: Assistant to the recording engineer.

Assistant mix engineer: Assistant to the mix engineer

Recording Engineer: Also know as the tracking engineer, their job is to record the project and make sure it is technically ready for a final mix. 

Mix Engineer: Also know as the mixing engineer and sometimes called the mixer. Their responsible for the final mix, their job is to produce a commercially satisfactory mix. The producer and record company are the people who approve the final mix. 

So you can see how important it is along the way of recording and mixing your project that you work with competent audio professionals.
