Prepare Your Files

Choose your DAW to see how to prepare your files


STEP 1: Bounce A Stereo Rough Mix (WAV or MP3)

If you haven't bounced a rough mix of your song(s) now is the time to do so. The rough mix is very important.
It speeds up the process by providing me with a blueprint of how you imagine your song(s) sonically taking shape.
Without a rough version the mix can be taken in a thousand different directions away from what you imagine.

Save the rough mix to your desktop and name the file using this format: Artist Name_Song Name (Rough Mix)


STEP 2: Remove Unused Clips

Removing unused clips can greatly reduce the file size of your session, making it faster to upload.

Open the CLIPS pane to the right in Pro Tools and click the downward arrow button and choose Select > Unused.
Your unused clips should now be selected in the clips list.

Click the downward arrow button again and choose Clear.
In the pop-up window that appears click Remove.




STEP 3: Freeze All Tracks (Requires Pro Tools 12.4 or later. For older versions skip to STEP 4)

Freezing the individual tracks will retain any plugin fx you used in the rare occasion I don't have the same plugins.

Select all tracks except the Master track.

In the top menu click Track > Freeze


STEP 4: Save Session Copy

In the top menu click File > Save Session Copy In...

In the pop-up window make the following selections:
Format: Session (Latest)
Audio File Type: BWF (.WAV)
Sample Rate and Bit Depth: Make sure they are the same as the session
In the Items To Copy section check Audio Files

Click OK. A window will pop-up to name and save your session. Navigate to your Desktop and save as:
Artist Name_Song Name (Mix Prep)
(i.e.) Michael Jackson_Billie Jean (Mix Prep)

Click Save. Your session folder will be created on your desktop.




STEP 5: Zip and Upload Files

Without a rough version the mix can be taken in a thousand different directions away from what you imagine.

Artist Name_Song Name (Rough Mix)
(ex.) Michael Jackson_Billie Jean (Rough Mix)

*I prefer to have both processed (wet) and unprocessed (dry) files,
but if you only have one type it's okay to just send those.

STEP 1: Create Folders For Wet & Dry Files

On your desktop create a new folder and name it using this format:
Artist Name_Song Name_TempoBPM_Mix Files
ex. Michael Jackson_Billie Jean_117bpm_Mix Files

Open the folder you just created and create two more folders inside it. Name one folder "Wet" and name the other one "Dry".
That's it for now. You can open your song in your DAW.


STEP 2: Export/Bounce A Stereo Rough Mix (WAV or MP3)

If you haven't bounced a rough mix of your song(s) now is the time to do so. The rough mix is very important.
It speeds up the process by providing me with a blueprint of how you imagine your song(s) sonically taking shape.
Without a rough version the mix can be taken in a thousand different directions away from what you imagine, 
and making it a significantly longer to complete.

Name the file using this format: 
Artist Name_Song Name (Rough Mix)
ex. Michael Jackson_Billie Jean (Rough Mix)
Save the rough mix file to the first folder you created on your desktop in step 1. 



STEP 3: Export/Bounce Individual Wet Tracks (Audio with FX)

First, make sure you name each track.
Export the individual track files in your DAW, leaving any plugins and fx you have used engaged.

Keep the same sample rate and bit depth as the original session.
File format should be WAV
Save the files to the "Wet" folder you created in step 1.



STEP 4: Export/Bounce Individual Dry Tracks (Audio without FX)

First, make sure you name each track.
Export the individual track files in your DAW with all plugins and fx bypassed/disabled.

Keep the same sample rate and bit depth as the original session.
File format should be WAV
Save the files to the "Dry" folder you created in step 1.



STEP 5: Zip and Upload Files

On your desktop, the first folder you created in step 1 should now have inside it the rough mix along with audio files in the "Dry" and "Wet" folders.

Right-click the first created folder on the desktop from step 1 and select Compress (Mac) or  Send to > Compressed (zipped) folder (Win). 
You should now have a zip file on your desktop with the same name as the folder:
Artist Name_Song Name_TempoBPM_Mix Files.zip

Upload this zip file using the upload link provided in the next step or in the welcome email we sent you.
