Part One
Getting everything right
- File format needed: .WAV or .AIF
- Keep the sample rate at the source sample rate (up to 192Khz).
- If your project contains samples at a sample rate lower than 44.1Khz, leave them "as is".
- Do not convert any files.
- The same rule applies for the Bit Rate.
- Double-check that the levels on all the channels are safe (-2DBFS True Peak maximum).
- Be logical when labeling the channels (e.g. by using common terms such as “drums”, “keys” and so on).
- If you have channels of the same kind, clarify them by their respective roles (e.g. for keys: "Lead”, "Pluck”, “Pad”, etc...).
- To make things easier, export all files in a single folder and name it accordingly (Artist Name - Title - Version).
- If you are unsure or have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me.
Part Two
Export The Tracks
- Before anything else, if you have a raw mix, export it as a stereo file.
- Bybass unecessary plugins.
- Only keep the plugins used to design the individual sounds.
- Double-check those on your master track as well.
- Bypass any unnecessary automation, but keep those that deserve your track.
- Turn off any normalization option (check your DAW's user manual).
- Keep Individual channels in their respective output format (mono ⁄ stereo).
- Export an extra copy of the unprocessed vocals (I need the raw track(s)).
- The same applies to any tracked instruments through D.I. and amps.
Part Three
Compress and upload
- Wrote down any late ideas in a text file.
- Provide at least one reference track.
- Compress the folder using the following formats: ZIP, RAR, or 7z. *
- Upload the compressed file using the provided upload link.
*I recommend using the ZIP format for its cross-platform compatibility and its native support by various Operating Systems.
