When I started out in music production, I wished that I could have somebody that could answer all the questions I had and explain everything and expand my knowledge in the areas I was lacking. The issue is that the entire area of music production is big, not to mention most of the people have their own unique way of doing things. I am now going to give you some pieces of advice that are important in your success and will help you to pave a path to a pro music production.
Don't mix for too long ; let your ears rest - It is important to take breaks during mixing. For each hour you are mixing a track allow a 20 mins break. This can be quite hard if you're doing computer music production, as the PC you will be mixing on will without doubt be in the room you spend the majority of your time. Now. Nobody truly sticks to this break-time formula as regular clockwork but it is something to aim at and perhaps let this time overlap a little.
I say to take five sooner if you are working on a little repetitive section of a song for a bit, as your mind will just 'let go' and not be sharp and anything will sound amazing after a bit sabotaging any plan to get a professional music production finished.
Do not mix in a giant roomy environment - Anything that changes the sound of your track that is outside of computer music production or a mixing desk is a difficulty. If you mix like this, you may get a professional music production out of your track but when you take it out of the room you mixed it in it will sound fully terrible as the ambiance and acoustics of that room are not present.
Do not mix a music track on the same day recording it - This is for two reasons. First reason would be because you use 2 different parts of your brain to do each. For one you have got to really concentrate hard and the second is the opposite, you want to concentrate too but you also need forget what you do and sense or feel.
The second reason would be down to the probable levels your ears have had exposure to during recording, some artists / bands wouldn't have this but they would have the first reason as a reason not to do both mixing and recording on one day. It can be tough if you're working on a computer music production but you actually must learn to leave it alone and give your intelligence and ears a rest ; do something that uses your other senses and don't sit in the same place that you will mix in when you're not mixing.
