This should be called, listening to the masters talk, zero mixing information. I am disappointed I payed for this.
Oleg Garaev April 5, 2024 at 9:12 PM

What an amazing breakdown of the entire working process! Thanks!
Alex Trajano February 12, 2024 at 3:47 PM

Brilliant and amazing.

Great introduction into the process of Film Scoring, a subject I am not familiar with and new to! Loved the detail and way it was explained and very helpful with defining terms and explaining new concepts!
Stef Dudzinski September 20, 2023 at 11:44 AM

Awesome! It was really insightful & inspiring to watch this! We absolutely need more stuff about film music in context.
Adam Szklenar August 18, 2023 at 11:05 PM

Fantastic, we definitely need more film and film music stuff here!
Henning Hein June 27, 2023 at 11:09 AM

Is this the only video for film sound?
Alan Bray November 10, 2022 at 9:47 PM

just amazing to watch the masters
Aneek Thapar August 24, 2022 at 4:26 AM

Fantastic ! I really enjoyed watching Alan’s videos whilst I was mixing a friends score for a Netflix doc. So useful and insightful.
Max Schneider August 11, 2022 at 3:00 PM

while this has been an interesting peek into the world of mixing in film I am left with a million questions and would have expected a somewhat deeper insight into techniques and details that make the mastery of Ron more tangible for the ones of us who have already progressed in that field. nevertheless: while potentially misinterpreting certain ideas mentioned, there are a plentiful of inspiring ideas that I am gonna assimilate into my own workflow. thank you. also I would love to be a fly on the wall, or several at once with all the people involved, throughout a project like this, which hopefully serves as an inspiration to the programmers of this platform

I really liked this one, but it was surprisingly light on useful details. I think it's perfectly aimed at the beginner/intermediate crowd, but I suspect there are plenty of other subscribers to MWTM who are already professional sound engineers seeking to hone their craft in a meaningful way, and this definitely falls short in that regard. I really enjoyed it, but I didn't learn much from it.
Ricardo Cutz July 21, 2022 at 5:20 AM

+1 Lovely talk and nice stories... I kind of expected it from the trailer... but I wish it would be deeper. But let's see what this new series bring on! Thanks MWTM for opening up this new thread

Brian Bolger March 4, 2024 at 2:43 PM

Yes very light in details. And this is part of the Mixing series. This is more 'Story time with Masters'. This should probably be over in the Production series. Which I've learned to skip.
GT Little, Jr. July 17, 2022 at 2:10 AM

LOVED THIS!!! Thank you so much for this tutorial. I find pretty much ANYthing in the Meyerson Collection to be vastly more informative than the majority of the other videos. I always come away feeling like I really learned something whether totally new or, in a lot of cases, just a deeper understanding of the subject matter. I love this site! Thanks again! I
Katia Dotto July 7, 2022 at 3:56 PM

This was great, thanks! Would love for you guys to make a PART 2 of this serie where we could actually get to see more of the details, plugins, hear about why certain specific choices were made, dialog processing and so on ;)

I think what "Pantheo" plug in Alan speak in the second part, is more "penteo" : https://www.perfectsurround.com/
