Alongside Ceri Thomas of Dolby Music, Genewick opens the stereo mix session of ‘White Lightning’ by Staci Griesbach and demonstrates how he transfers the material to a new session for mixing in Atmos. He explains how he changed his Pro Tools stereo mix template for this workflow, and gives you a walkthrough of his routing, inserts, and positioning of tracks using objects and zones.
