Mix Prep Checklist

  • Label all tracks with one of the following prefixes on each track:

TRACK NAMING SCHEME:

  • d = drums

  • f = fx (risers, impacts, sub drops, etc)

  • b = bass guitar

  • g = guitars

  • s = synths

  • sb = synthbass

  • v = vocals

  • vfx = vocal fx (for reverbs, delays, etc)

  • o = orchestra

Examples: d_Kick.wav, d_Snare.wav, d_AmenBreak.wav, v_VerseLead1.wav, v_VerseLead2.wav, etc.


If you have files like audio1.wav, audio1.dup.2.wav, etc, please rename them so we know what they are just by reading the filename.

  • Don’t do any sample rate or bit depth conversion when bouncing your audio I’ll take care of that on my end.

  • Make sure that none of your tracks are clipping (in the red) before you start bouncing.

  • Bounce all tracks in your session from the very beginning of the song, even if there is silence before a certain sound.

  • Files must be WAV, AIF, or AIFF (no mp3s).

  • Please send me audio files instead of your mixing session.

  • If you like how sounds are panned in your current mix, print stereo files of your panned tracks with the panning information intact.

  • Include one “rough mix” or “current mix” of your song. This best demonstrates your mix in its present state, and helps me hit the ground faster with your mix.

  • If possible, please include MIDI for all drum shells for easier sample replacement, if needed.

  • If possible, please include guitar DIs for easier guitar reamping, if needed.

  • I prefer to work with audio without effects applied, but if you like the effects on some of your tracks, please include "wet" AND "dry" versions of those, labeling them appropriately (ex. "v_LeadVox_Dry" and "v_LeadVox_Wet").

  • Put all these audio files in a ZIP folder (labeled “Artist Name - Song Name.zip”), and upload to your favorite file sharing service (Dropbox, Google Drive, etc). Make the link public so I can view it, and make sure the link doesn’t expire Be sure to hang on to the download link, that’s what you’ll use on the next page to send me your files.

Once your files have been prepared, click the button below to send them over!
