    If your mixes aren't portable the first suspect is your mix environment. Logically, if they sound good in only one place, that place is 'wrong'. See https://music.stackexchange.com/questions/45587/mixing-and-mastering-at-home?rq=1 and https://music.stackexchange.com/questions/31142/how-to-judge-a-mix-on-e-g-muddiness-and-balance?rq=1 – Tetsujin May 03 '22 at 14:16
  • Welcome! Maybe it's because I'm not an audio engineer, but I don't know what you mean by "translating." Could you edit to explain more? If this isn't a technical issue, but just one of "feel," you might have to get a lot more specific to find a solution. Also, Stack Exchange tries to create substantive answers *here*; they might link to an article or a video, but questions that are only looking for outside resources aren't one of the [topics covered here](https://music.stackexchange.com/help/on-topic). – Andy Bonner May 03 '22 at 22:23
  • @Tetsujin (I've also had the "the mixing environment is 'too right'" phenomenon. "Holy crap, this bass sounds awesome!" ... in the studio, with a subwoofer like a filing cabinet. Bounce it down to CD, stick it in a boombox, and it's inaudible. – Andy Bonner May 03 '22 at 22:24
  • youtube youtube youtube. You can watch videos about mixing until the cows come home. Just search. – ibonyun May 05 '22 at 06:45
  • Also, you mention 2 separate issues. 1) Mixes not translating is likely indicative of poor room acoustics and/or crappy monitors in your mixing room. 2) Mixes not sounding thick enough might be because you're scooping out too much of the midrange. Overly hyped mixes sound thin. – ibonyun May 05 '22 at 06:48
