COLLABORATION UNIT – MIXING THE FINAL VIDEO IN PRO TOOLS

After arranging the sounds in Ableton, I dragged the stems into Pro-Tools and ended up using the DearVR Micro plugin instead of the FB360 plugin because I couldn’t get the audio to work properly with the FB360 plugin on a track. I think this was because I had to decode the plugin to work in binaural, as it was operating in multi-channel sound. I didn’t really have the time to figure this out so I just used a different plugin instead. The DearVR Micro plugin worked absolutely fine, and the parameters were a lot more simple to use which made the whole process a lot easier.

Once again I worked quickly and efficiently, making sure not to overcomplicate anything in terms of my mixing decisions. My main focus was spatialising the sounds to mirror the position that the sound objects were in and the direction they were moving, for example another bee flying past the screen would be spatialised from front to back. Most of the sounds moved very subtly in the binaural stereo field, for instance the wind slightly changing position based on where the bee was facing.

I will explain my process in more detail in my reflection.
