To Get the files to me to Mix –

Zip your Song Folder of your files or (Cubase, Protools, Reason) session of your files and send via, Apple Mail Drop, wetransfer.com , dropbox , google drive, Pcloud.com or similar service to djgoz2008@gmail.com

Mixing Guidelines for Clients sending Files.

1a- Please Make sure every track is labeled properly. E.g: Guitar, Lead guitar, kick, Snare Top , Lead Vocal, low harmony, double Lead vocal, Arp Synth, Violin,  ETC .. Do not send me untitled tracks, and

1b- Additionally, Make sure your arrangement are settled prior to sending and exporting, i don’t need muted tracks or other takes…ONLY exactly what you are using in the song that you want me to mix.

2- Any editing/Tuning/Pitch Correction/Time Alignment needs to be printed to the track (unless you are hiring me for editing in addition to mixing in which case this does not apply to you)

3- Consolidate all the tracks from the beginning of your session/ bar 1 in the DAW program you are using so that all files start at the same time ( even if there is blank audio in the beginning or anywhere else i need this so i can drop it into protools and it will line up perfectly) ( no edits, breaks or chops in the audio, one continuous file per track and instrument, and all of your edits should be printed. Most daws can do this when you export automatically as long as exporting from bar 1 of your arrangement ). Please export files at 44100 Sample rate and 24 or 32 Bit as that is what i mix at.

4- If using plugins in your session that you had going for a rough mix or while tracking please take these off as i will want the raw tracks for mixing ( the exception is anything you want there in the mix and it’s part of the production sound, like vocal tuning and things like that)

5- if there are specific fx that you have on any of your tracks and you want me to match them please print an extra track (and label it FX printed with track name) with the fx and leave one untouched for me to process.

6- Print all Midi and virtual Instrument tracks (including automation if you have filters/lfo etc set on any midi tracks), and any Amp Simulators to an audio track

7- If using any program other than Pro Tools, please export the consolidated files from Bar 1, put them in a folder labeled with the song name and BPM in the title of the folder, (if you are using pro tools you can send the session without exporting it, but everything else still applies that is on this list)

8- Please include a rough mix if you have it so i can hear what you’ve been listening to while tracking so i can get an idea of what the vibe of the song is.

9- Include memory location for each section of the song if using Pro Tools. If sending a folder exported from another DAW, include a note with the time stamps and name of each song section so I can quickly label and get to mixing.

If your DAW has the option please disable “filename prefix” so that the title of the song isn’t on every track title in the session – (as i’ll then have to edit each one out manually to properly see what track is what in mix view and organize a new session).

Any questions or concerns please  don’t hesitate to reach out to me via email or my website contact page, email (djgoz@bizzybeats.com or info@bizzybeats.com or djgoz2008@gmail.com) and i will be more than happy to help in anyway to get your project rolling.

These guidelines are really just to make the process easier for all parties and allow me to spend more time mixing which in turn leads to having the best possible mix for your song.

Once i complete the mix You’ll receive a Mix1 of your song via email and 2 revisions are included in my rate which most of the time covers everything.

Additional charges apply for further revisions, stems etc.

I also offer a live stream of audio for when i make any further mix changes which help with any changes no matter where you are in the world.

Thanks and i look forward to working with you!
