Mix With The Masters – Chris Lord-Alge Mixing ‘The American Dream Is Killing Me’ by Green Day

Watch as CLA remixes this powerful rock track from scratch. The multi-platinum mix engineer leaves his base at Mix LA in search of new sonic territories. Inspired by the variety of gear at Rue Boyer, he fires up the studio’s immaculate SSL 4000E and puts his analog mixing techniques to the test.

Chris views mixing as an opportunity to experiment with the studio’s high-end hardware setup. He sets up a real echo effect using a vintage Revox tape machine, and takes the mix to the next level using a suite of boutique compressors from Manley, Dramastic, and Undertone Audio. He clearly defines his intentions behind every hardware insert and effect send, allowing you to follow his decision-making process in real time.

Chris starts at the very beginning, showing how he sets up a basic DAW session for mixing. He applies some light pre-processing and summing in the software before sending the session to the 48-channel console. Once all the analog gear is connected, he creates a powerful balance in seconds. Along the way, he adds some subtle EQ and compression to highlight each band member’s personality and bring the mix to life.

It’s always inspiring to watch Chris at work behind the console, and this series offers a fresh look at his tried-and-true process. Watch him use his signature mixing techniques with a new set of tools, and learn more about his work with the iconic rock band.
