Mix Prep Guidelines
Should be formatted as WAV files only. I will not be able to use any kind of project/session files (.ptx, .logicx, etc.)
Ensure that all audio files begin at the same time.
Clearly and specifically label and number each audio file (LeadVocal.wav, FloorTom.wav, AcousticGuitar.wav, etc.)
Please be sure to include markers indicating song structure, as well as a MIDI tempo map file if it was recorded to a click.
In a separate folder, please include rough mixdowns of each song so that I can get an idea of the track’s intended balance.
Include a few songs that you’d like me to reference during my mixing. Be specific about what you’d like me to reference. For example “We like the overall balance of X song, we think the vocal effects of Y song would be a good fit, etc.”
