Enter the compelling world of film score mixing at Studios La Fabrique with the acclaimed engineer Alan Meyerson! We explore the multi-track of a piece from the 2018 sci-fi action movie 'The Predator', composed by Henry Jackman and recorded at the Newman Scoring Stage of 20th Century Fox. Meyerson reveals his microphone, preamp and signal routing decisions at the tracking stage, then takes you through every aspect of the intricate Pro Tools session. We observe how he harnesses modern DAW, plug-in and control surface technology to manage expansive track counts and let mixing creativity flourish.

He also shows his array of plug-ins and parameter settings used to treat a wide variety of orchestral instruments and samples.
