Unmute all of your previously recorded tracks and you should now have a tempo click track embedded in your mix. Like I said, make whatever adjustments you need on your mixing board to make sure the click track is loud enough in your overall mix. Mix it down to mp3 or wav and send it to your drummer.Hit Record and record that click track all the way through your mix from beginning to end.Mute all other tracks in your mix and focus on the click track to mix it the way you want.Create a blank audio track in your project.Audio cable out from PC in to MIXING BOARD on an empty (available channel). In my case I added an extra 8 count of clicks at the beginning so he knew exactly where to come in. For that I just mixed my entire project down to. wav, created a new project, recorded an 8 count of clicks and added my mix after. Mixed it all down to mp3 and sent it to him. I hope this helps someone somewhere who is frustrated with all the workarounds figure this out. It’s essentially just adding an audio track to your mix of what your computer is playing back which in this case is your tempo track. Reaching the ‘0’ mark on the “K-14” meter means that your mix is something near -14LUFS and so when you run it through the normalization during export, Mixbus can then reduce it to meet your deliverable needs.Without a mixing board I have no idea how to do this because you need a soundcard on your PC that can render a midi track as clicks. This will help ensure that your average-to-peak ratio is high enough to meet your medium/broadcaster’s expectations. You should first develop your mix so that the master bus’s “K-14” meter is reaching near the ‘0’ meter during the loudest part of your mix. This is highly subjective and can change with the industry, but as it stands now, there are a few practices most mixing engineers follow and we make that easy to adhere to in Mixbus! (another side note: Mixbus’ K-14 meter is an instantaneous RMS meter, not LUFS but if you mix to the RMS level it should get you in the ballpark of desired LUFS) Best Practices Normalization can only adjust the final measurements to prevent exceeding your maximums. Said another way: normalization has no effect on the sound or quality of your mix, or its perceived loudness. It does not change the peak-to-average ratio of your song. The important point is: normalization only provides clean gain (either increasing or decreasing the volume for the entire file). (side note: if the LUFS normalization would result in a signal above your peak target, then Mixbus normalizes to the peak, not LUFS … this is why your resulting file is not reaching the LUFS you want) If we normalize a file to -9 LUFS, we know that we have a very loud mix indeed!īut: there is a limit with LUFS normalization: if Mixbus increases the loudness too much, it will push your “peaks” into clipping. You can have a very peaky file that still sounds quiet whereas LUFS takes the “average” level into account. Normalizing to LUFS is a better solution, because it is a much better indication of “perceived loudness”. This is pedantically useful in many cases, but not really important step for a deliverable mix. For example you can have a single loud peak in a 10-minute file, and the normalization function will decrease the level of the file so the peak fits in without clipping. However, a single “peak” digital sample has very little to do with the perceived loudness of the file. That means the loudest sample of the resulting file will reach exactly 0dBFS. Traditionally, the most common usage of this feature is to set the peak to 0dBFS. The normalization process will apply a single “gain” value to the whole resulting export file, so that the loudest part of the file reaches the desired target peak or loudness value. Mixbus’ export page allows for easy customization of loudness targets that help you meet the loudness standards of the medium you will eventually end up in, whether it be a Redbook CD, Streaming, or other client specifications.
