If you listen closely, excellent sound design has a hue. Height. Depth. And even taste. We mix audio “Synesthetically”. Don’t know what that means? It’s OK. We made it up. It comes from the word “Synesthesia”, a sensory phenomenon where sounds can appear as colors or shapes in the mind’s eye. Practically speaking, this means we’re looking at every mix as an aural painting, with lines and spaces we need to paint in with colorful frequencies. A full mix has depth, meaning the ear perceives what’s important as “closer”. And height, meaning powerful bass energy hits the listener in your lower chest, while high frequencies seem to fly above you. We’re nerds. Audiophiles. And we’re obsessed with creating those loud, colorful, “holy s***” moments with sound.
