MIX TEMPLATES

USER GUIDE
Here are detailed explanations for an easy and intuitive 4 steps process:

STEP 1 - DOWNLOAD
Choose the relevant style of your song and download the relevant MIX TEMPLATE designed for that style. By clicking
on any of the MIX TEMPLATES, you can find specific details for each type of product in our offering, including specific
product/plug-ins requirements, template specs, list of channels provided as part of the template, and more.

Save the file in the relevant location in your hard drive and open the file. Once file is opened in Cubase, it will first ask
to locate the audio folder where your recorded files are located. You can also choose any other folder in your hard drive
but it is highly recommended to use the specific folder of your recorded files.

Your MIX TEMPLATE is now ready for your imported files. You will now see a long list of pre-mixed channels, properly
named and ready to be set up on your recorded audio files.

STEP 2 - DRAG & DROP

Drag your recorded files (or use the 'import audio files' function) to the relevant channels on the MIX TEMPLATE. Some
channels may not be relevant for your song, you can simply ignore those or delete, other channels you may want to
duplicate, simply adjust as needed for your specific project.

STEP 3 - LISTEN
After all files have been dragged (or imported) to the relevant channels, align the tempo of the project file with the tempo
of your recorded track (please also see important note below), and simply listen to your MIX TEMPLATE result.

Now you have an amazing and professional sound to your mix! MIX TEMPLATES provides the best platform for a
great mix, but your song is not finished yet.

IMPORTANT:
Please verify sufficient wave size (input volume) of drum channels (specifically BaseDrum, SnareDrum and Toms), to make sure these are
aligned to the gate level applied to these channels. If you do not hear a specific drum, adjust the wave size until solved (you can do that by
simply dragging the upper boarder of the presented wave in your project layout).

Wave size adjustment may also be required for vocal tracks to align with compression levels, and other channels as well. Simply adjust
until reaching your optimal level as required.

In addition, make sure you align the project tempo to the actual tempo of your track, this will affect also certain plugins which are configured
to align to the project tempo.

STEP 4 - PERSONALIZE
You've reached the final stage, now it's time to make it your own! MIX TEMPLATE provides the professional platform
for your music, but it doesn't mean that your song is completely ready.

Now it's time to add your own touch, it's time to make certain modifications, as the pre-mixed channels cannot perfectly fit
every recorded guitar, drum, keys or other instruments. All that is left for you to do from this point, is to simply fine-tune
as needed in order to get your perfect personalized mix. You're DONE!
WHAT IS A MIX TEMPLATE?
MIX TEMPLATE is an easy to use Cubase project file, which has been pre-engineered by sound experts, to provide the
end user with a ready-made template to deliver the aspired sound, by simply adding the relevant recorded tracks to the
relevant channels in the template.

By choosing our MIX TEMPLATES solution, You get a full Cubase project file ready with a variety of channels, all pre-
arranged and prepared with the appropriate plug-ins, EQs, compressors, limiters, effects, groups and more. These have
been engineered by professionals for different genres, all offered here by us.

You recorded your song and now have all your files and channels ready for mix, now the question is, how to mix? what
comes first? which plug-ins to use? how to use them? in what order? Learning how to mix requires knowledge, expertise
and experience. Access to this knowledge and experience means spending money and investing a lot of time and effort,
you will need guidance and lots of experience and you may get frustrated along the way. MIX TEMPLATES is a great
solution to getting immediate access to how sound professionals manage their mix, you will get instant visibility to how
each channel is engineered, how each compressor, EQ, EFX and more, are tailored in order to get to the professional
sound that you are so eagerly seeking.

After adding your recorded tracks to the template, you will instantly hear a professional sound for your mix, it will
immediately sound amazing with that magic touch to your music. While MIX TEMPLATE is a generic template per each
genre and style as chosen, it provides you with the flexibility to adjust every single parameter in the template to both
bring your own touch to your mix, and address specific changes that you feel are required to get your perfect
personalized mix. Instead of trying to go through the mixing process from scratch, and getting amateur results, with MIX
TEMPLATES your starting point will be from a whole different level, you will go directly to focusing on fine-tuning, and
enjoy best practices and methodologies in sound engineering already embedded to your song.

Have no mistake, each song is different and each recorded sound used in your mix needs to be treated differently. As
part of MIX TEMPLATES, we have prepared in advance for each channel in the template, the relevant sound preset
that best copes with that recorded track and to get as close as possible to the perfect end result for that channel. It will
most likely sound completely amazing already when using MIX TEMPLATES as it is, but obviously it all depends on the
quality of the original recorded track, which may require your own fine-tuning. We strongly recommend not to 'over' fine-
tune, you may find yourself overdoing it. For any special tracks that you feel are not addressed within the template you
purchased, contact us and we will be happy to assist you and provide a more custom solution for your specific needs.

Our MIX TEMPLATES offering is currently available only for Cubase. For simplicity, as many plug-ins are available to
be added on Cubase, we prepared our generic templates using only the plug-ins that are provided with the original
Cubase version, this is so you will not find yourself unable to enjoy the MIX TEMPLATES solution due to not owning a
specific plug-in.
