MockingQuantum Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Hello OCRers, what do you all recommend for getting some practice mixing tracks? I'd really like to get some practice in on just mixing and refining tracks that I otherwise haven't worked on. Is there any resource out there where people post stems or tracks for this purpose?

timaeus222 Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) I could make up one mixing practice set of stems sometime later. I'll have it cover mixing bass and midrange, mostly, in a clean stereo field (mixing treble rigorously is kind of a "do I really need to go that far" type of deal in my opinion). I'm making a new one because I want it to be simple, no overarching context that comes with mixing a full song. https://app.box.com/s/x0y3aq91ntrkcyyu2bn4x0hhkxnpdpkk - Mixing Practice Set Edited February 18, 2015 by timaeus222 Quote
MindWanderer Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Brandon Strader also posted some practice stems [thread=44793]here[/thread]. Quote
MockingQuantum Posted February 18, 2015 Author Posted February 18, 2015 Wow, thank you both for the quick response. And Brandon, for the linked stems, just in case he happens to wander into this thread. Quote

Darangen Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 www.duelingmixes.com has a monthly release of songs in various styles. There's a subscription, like $27 a month or something, but it's always some good practice. Quote

MockingQuantum Posted February 19, 2015 Author Posted February 19, 2015 http://www.cambridge-mt.com/ms-mtk.htmMixing stems. Literally thousands. Wow, how did I not find this when searching? Thanks Neblix! Also, I've very nearly bought that book multiple times. @timaeus, thanks so much for that, I'm looking forward to giving it a spin when I have some time! Quote
lacifer Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 Have you ever been on the https://indabamusic.com site? They have different kinds of contests on there... both mixing, remixing and original compositions. I have only entered a couple of mix contests, but I have mixed a lot of them for practice. btw Neblix .. thanx for the Cambridgesite link!! ... can´t believe I haven`t stumbled upon that one.. -l Quote
