I’ve always thought it would be interesting and fun to share our tracks for mixing. If anyone fancies it I would get the ball rolling and post the raw files for a song of mine.
Cheers
Edit
Great that there is some interest. I have started a thread in the ‘Made With Cubase’ section
Occasionally I here a nice tune posted here that I feel I could take to another level if I had a chance to mix it. Similarly, I have numerous of my own tunes that I would actually pay someone (professional) to mix. I think the learning experience would be invaluable.
Pretty much Also allows you to practice mixing in various styles. No pressure on you so you can try things you may have hesitated to do on your own mixes. I did a few mixes and found myself doing all sorts of things that popped into my head. Good experience
I wish I could participate. Way overloaded at the moment.
But a mixing contest is what I first thought you were saying. (and a future idea)…
IE… someone upload a raw set of tracks,
Everyone take those tracks into their own DAW and mix to their hearts content.
No listening to others final mixes until yer’s are done and posted.
Then we compare each persons mixing style and maybe vote on it.
I just bounce the vsti’s to audio. I don’t use many though, mostly Addictive Drums. Sometimes down to a single stereo file and sometimes to individual files. I do this for backup purposes as well as mixing. Of course this does mean a larger file to upload for sharing. That is why I chose this short and fairly simple song to share. For this little experiment I batch exported all tracks to 24bit but I think 16bit files would have been ok for this purpose.
