Evan Morgan is a mixing engineer and music producer based out of Vancouver, BC, Canada! In our conversation, Evan shares his journey; from touring musician to sitting behind the glass to eventually transitioning into mostly mixing. We go deep on producing from the songwriter's point of view, doing post-production to help manifest the artist's intent, and why workflow is more important than sonics. We also chat about low-end theory and how phase alignment is the key to getting a massive bottom end, mastering, communication, practicing self-care, and so much more! Check it out!
