If you’re new to sending in your song for mixing, you’re probably wondering how do I prepare and send in my song files?

It’s pretty easy and this guide will walk you through the general idea of what you need to do, if you already get the concept of exporting your files, please follow the DAW specific guides on our upload page.

What Is Exporting?

First thing you’re probably wondering is what does it mean to export the individual tracks?

When you record a song in your recording program, you’ll notice that it’ll have a beat track and vocal tracks.

When you send in a song for our mixing and mastering service, we need those tracks separated into individual tracks.

I should also mention another word for exporting is “bounce”, so you may have heard an audio engineer say, “Can you bounce those tracks?”. This just means, “Can you export those tracks?”.

Also you may have heard someone say “Can you send the stems?”, stems is just another word for ‘individual tracks”.

Exporting Beat Stems

Second thing is, if you’re able to get the beat tracked out, meaning you’re able to get the individual tracks that make up the beat such as the kick track, bass track, piano track, snare track, etc., you can also send in those tracks as well.

Same Starting Point

Thirdly, one of the most important (yet overlooked) things when sending tracks for song mixing is making sure they are exported from the same starting point.

There is nothing more frustrating and time consuming for an audio engineer than to have to guess where each track goes (Believe me I know first hand!).​

I’ve had a few artists tell me “Can’t you just place them where they’re supposed to go?”.

Yes I could but I would have to tap out the tempo of the beat and then play with it for another 10 to 30 minutes -major waste of time when I could be mixing and mastering your song to make it sound amazing!

Besides I’d rather your vocals and hook be exactly where you recorded them and not even a millisecond off as vocal timing in every genre is crucial.

I even had one time when after I got the vocals placed as best I could, the artist said “hey they sound off!”.

Great!

Now I have to go back and figure out if they should be a few milliseconds forward or a few milliseconds backwards.

If the artist had just the presence of mind to send the tracks all starting at the same time, we could have saved a bunch of time as well as hassle.

So all you new artists out there remember when you’re sending your tracks out to be mixed, make sure they’re all bounced from the start of the song!

Let me just end this rant and get to the point, which is why you’re here.

Okay so here’s the wrong way to export your tracks

As you can see the vocal selection is highlighted but it is not highlighted from the start of the song, also the beat isn’t muted, so you’re just exporting the vocals and beat mixed together.

Rookie mistake.

Here’s the right way to export your tracks

First you mute the beat so that only the vocals are on.

Than you highlight the track from the beginning of the song so that the blank space will be in before your vocals placing them where they need to be.

Keep in mind, this method is only for programs where you can’t batch export individual tracks such as Audacity and Garage Band. For all other programs, follow the guide on our upload page.

Here’s what your tracks should look like when exported

You see all tracks are lined up starting from the beginning.

Export the Beat

Instead of sending the mp3 you got from the producer, a good idea is to also export the beat from the recording session as it’ll include any latency when you recorded.

To export your beat, you just mute your vocals and leave your beat on.

Also make sure you highlight from the start of your song again!

Double Check

How

Before sending your tracks make sure you’ve listened to them for any glitches which may have occurred during the exporting process and to make sure that their timing is right.

You can do this by loading the tracks you just exported into a new session and seeing if everything lines up.

It’s good to do this as you don’t want to waste time and bandwidth re-uploading your tracks.

Music editing is much like tailoring: you measure twice, cut once.
