Please give me something to mix...

[peritus]

Lol.. bored today and would like to mix something... Can be a series of stem files (WAV), pro tools, or even a reason project (which I will mix in pro tools)... Anyone? I'm hoping it will turn out well but I can't guarantee... I'm gonna check some of the old contest threads to see if any of the files are still up...

Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving...

Isn't that an old Percy Mayfield tune?

I don't have anything for you, sorry dude. But happy thanksgiving.

Also, why are they called "stem files"? Why not just tracks? Or is there a difference...

Danny,

Stems are submixes created from more than one individual track. For example, one might provide a stereo percussion stem instead of a half-dozen individual drum tracks.

Nothing either, sorry.
Unless you want to mix my turkey stuffing.

Stems are like mini mixes kinda. A guitar stem would be a stereo bounce of all the guitars in the mix. So if there were 20 guitars, you could only apply effetcs to all of them at the same times.

Ah ok. Thanks Glenn and Eck.

Right on.... Thanks for the replies though.. lol..

Yeah. By stems I meant what is posted above.. As well as meaning tracks that start a zero, regardless of when the instrument comes in...

Actually, you may be looking for soemthing more professionally recorded with mics. My drums are midi BFD and guitars through amplitube. You'd have to have that or some guitar software. Let me know.

Don't have any guitar software at the moment... Sorry...

Peritus - are you still bored enough to want to mix someone else's stuff? I've got one for you if so. I have a triple-miked solo fingerstyle guitar piece that needs some clever work to correct phase issues. Want to have a go at it? I've taken it about as far I am able.

Morning! There is a website that has the original tracks to a Brain Eno song he did long ago. I think the title is something like "____ in the bush with ghosts" I forget the link, sorry. I downloaded it free, and had a blast playing around with it. It was done 24 tr. analog. very cool. I will look around for the link and post if sucessful.

[Thurgood]

Song title "my life in the bush with ghosts" in collaboratioin with David Byrne. Still looking for the site.

[Thurgood]

Got it. If i remember, it was kinds tricky to download but it is possible. http://bush-of-ghosts.com/remix/bush_of_ghosts.htm

[peritus]

Hey there.. I'm taking a look at your mix and I'm curious about the nature of each track... Maybe some sound replacing has been done?

Learn something new every day Always just called them sub mixes.
