Everyone is talking about Benson Boone's power in "Beautiful Things," but almost no one is talking about the tools that make it possible—or dangerous.

The Kevin Cronin (REO Speedwagon) Case Study: I'll share a story from the studio about how we adjusted his IEM mix to stop him from over-singing and help him "absorb" the band's energy. How to set up your mix so you feel the music, not just hear it.
