Experimental Sound 4- Mixing and Compression

During today's Experimental Sound lesson, we looked at several different features in Adobe Audition. Sadly I was unable to attend last week's lesson, meaning I had to use Thomas' work as a template to edit the sound. The sound itself is a scene from Toy Story 3, where Mr Potato Head is on top of a train, and then falls over. The clip itself had several different tracks and sounds that needed to be synced up accurately with the footage. We looked at tools such as dynamic range, compression, mixing, routing and final export of sound to industry standards.

I found compression and mixing generally quite hard, however I feel with practice I will become a lot better at it. I am fortunate enough to have Adobe Creative Cloud, so I can practice a lot in Adobe Audition and get used to its tools a little bit more.
