mixing

No song can be a hit without a solid, well-balanced mix. Having an experienced engineer mix your music will significantly enhance the quality and marketablility of your material. With many years of mixing experience and the ear of quality, Audio Valve can make the difference.

How to send your tracks to Audio Valve for mixing:

1) Simply record your normal completed 24 bit stereo mix. Name the file [Your Song] Mix.aif (or .wav) and put it into the [Your Song] folder (no brackets needed!).
Then without changing any level, any plug-ins or anything else -
2) Simply mute (or disable) all tracks except track 1 and record track 1 portion of your mix to a separate 24 bit stereo file (with all track 1-related reverbs and effects). Name the file [Your Song] track1.aif (or wav) and put it into the same [Your Song] folder.
3) Mute (or disable) all tracks but track 2 - record track 2-only portion of your mix separately (in 24 bit stereo with all related track 2 effects). Name the file [Your Song] track2.aif (or wav) and put it into the same folder.
4) Repeat steps 2-3 but continue to track 2, 3, 4 and so on.

Important! Be SURE you leave your computer automation ON for each track so that every sonic move you make in your stereo mix is retained in the track and set you markers long enough to catch all your effects, such as delays. In cases where you can't change your mutes (because of the automation), use solos or highlight-select the track you. Use either solos or mutes -- so long as every element in your mix, every plug-in, every automation move, every musical component goes into that track.
