Margo Price "Leftovers"

Rebuilding the Mix and Setting the Emotional Direction

Matt Ross-Spang returns to “Leftovers” by Margo Price, stripping the session back to its raw balance and starting fresh.

In this first episode, Matt walks through:

- Rebuilding the session with no plugins or automation

- Gain staging and routing for a hybrid analog workflow

- Mixing through a vintage console for feel, not perfection

- Establishing the emotional goal of the song before touching details

This episode sets the foundation: a live band in a room, cinematic but never overproduced.
