Young Guru – How to Make Samples Sit in the Mix


Got a great sample, but not happy with how it’s sitting in the mix? Need to help it fit better with the lead vocal, or with the drums? Grammy-winning mixer Young Guru (Jay Z, Beyoncé) shows you how to easily tweak the sample’s sound and manipulate different instruments within it, when you only have the finished sample, loop or 2-track—using his Guru Sample Spice plugin chain in Waves StudioVerse.
