Hi, I'm a long time lurker, and now I have a question. When I submit audio to an ME, are stems the way to go? How are they setup? Is it vox, rhythm section, guitars/keys? Is there a standard? Is there no end to my questions?
Thanks to all for such a great resource.

Hi All,
I wanted to get good ref tracks so I:

Extracted the aiffs from production CDs using Toast.

Then used an audio editor to separate the L and R tracks into 2 mono.

Then loaded the files into my digital recorder (MX-2424) via file transfer (not real time).

Then played back on 2 adjacent channels for stereo (MX is connected to my 02r via TDIF).

having been on holiday with friends and family for the last couple of weeks, i've noticed that mp3's are king. everyone I know has some kind of ipod and mp3's everywhere. CD's? well they are just used as a temporary medium to transfer from pod to pod. There base station is a computer that they've ripped all their CD's to and then pack up the old plastic things and shove them in the attic.

Ok, I'm just about ready to wrap up my first project! Need some help though. Is there a program or something that will help me get all my track levels up and the same. I seems that right now I have some pretty hot and others not. I'm needing to get them all level. What do ya think?

:) This is sort of a hearing check for me, having gone over the hill and all, but, tell me if I am way out with these thoughts.

On a well mixed and mastered collection of work, I hear...

Sound that comes from behind and through my monitors as if they were not there at all.

Hey you! :D

What version of Sonic Solutions are you using? if you are using sonic :roll:

I've heard that there should be a a version called tracktor, is this a version of a sonic classic system?

Best Regards

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you all.

:) :D ;) :p :roll:

What you think about a Cut.

Low 20 Hz
High 18 kHz

I think nobody will hear that but i can get a higher level.

I will use the TC M6000 EQ for this Job.

Or better use a plugin like Waves, Powercore Sony EQ or UAD-1 Cambrigde ?

Does anyone use the GML 8900 for Mastering here ?

What is a good starting Preset ?

Any Tips ?

Thanx

What has been your biggest problem with clients lately?

I just want to know if I am getting all the clients with problems or if others are to.

Thanks in advance.
