Interview with Abner Zhung
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: Seeing people feel happy about how their songs turned out to be.
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Analog! Things can't always be perfect. That's the nature of human being. So these "beautiful defects" of analog system are the true nature of music!
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: People might think mixing is to fix, to add or to replace something. Mixing engineer might be able to do that but that's not the main point.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: My laptop, earphones, an ilok(for my plugins), an interface and a mic. These are the must-have gear for me!
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: About my mixing style, i don't like things sounds wet, fat or too warm. I prefer something punchy, clear and clean.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Worship songs.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Learning what clients want for their music.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: Make things sounds alive again at mixing stage, like people are listening to the song LIVE.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I had a idle room in my house set up as my studio. I had a pair of KRK as my main monitors. My main interface is T.C.'s SK48. Its convertor is really clean and neutral. There is also a Steinberg MR816 hooked up to SK48 so that i can have more inputs. And i also have a classic one-fader control surface, Alphatrack by frontier, and classic E.piano, YAMAHA CP33. About the mics, I have Shure KSM9 and beta87a for vocals, Beta57a for instrument, Rode M5 for drums' OH and EV N/D868 for bass drum.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Mike Senior and Graham Cochrane. Their articles and videos are super awesome!
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: Now it's the 7th year since i started making music.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: How it sounds is the point. Others just does not matter!
