Balancing all audio elements into a clear, cohesive whole.
The mix sets the relative levels, EQ and dynamics of dialogue, music and effects so everything is clear and nothing fights. Good mixing keeps dialogue intelligible and music supportive. It is the difference between audio that sounds amateur and audio that sounds finished.
Good audio mixing is less about technical perfection and more about making every word clear, every sound purposeful, and the overall loudness consistent from beginning to end.
EQ shapes the tone of a sound by cutting or boosting specific frequencies; compression tames the peaks and evens out the levels — together they are the two most useful audio tools a video editor can learn.
