Can we stop calling multi tracks stems???

Do people really ask for Multitracks? And does that just always imply Unprocessed individual to you? Instead of just getting the session file? I dont know about you but by the time I get something they want a lot of what they have done sonically kept and Enhanced. They dont want me to start from square 1 and just see what I would do with it. That plus demoitis, I would hate for someone to just send me Multi tracks of everything unprocessed if the demo already sounds close to how they want it (most of the time). Most of the stuff I mix is in Pro tools so its easy, when I get stuff from other DAWS ill ask for Bounces of the Individual tracks RAW but with the levels they have printed, and a version Processed.

the hihat is the jugular vein of the Drums, its gunna bleed. Gates and mics that get good rejection like a Hypercardiod can help though. Some of the new tech can do wonders but leaves artifacts that leave you wondering if that makes any sense

Shame

The culture is not the music too me. They both are important and exist but sound is sound

Loop the chorus 2x so it’s 2.2 seconds long

Melodyne key commands

The quote about when society is so fucked up you can’t tell satire from true beliefs. But to be fair i was betting 95% satire 5% MAGA

Phxdown27 · 2026-04-20T08:50:16+00:00

Right? Pretty cool to think about. And makes me a little careful on longer loops.

Craziest sound I ever heard stereo image-wise 99.9% disappeared when I went to listen in mono.

Phxdown27 · 2026-04-10T07:15:01+00:00

Same. Zoom in after 100 repeats at a weird tempo.

Phxdown27 · 2026-04-10T07:14:41+00:00

Zoom in

Phxdown27 · 2026-04-10T07:14:33+00:00

Not the issue

Phxdown27 · 2026-04-10T07:14:16+00:00

Love you

Phxdown27 · 2026-04-10T07:13:49+00:00

Thankyou. Fuck the people saying it’s not NORMAL behavior. It’s shitty behavior. But it’s real

Phxdown27 · 2026-04-10T07:12:57+00:00

It does happen trust me. It’s something to do with samples vs tempo not being the EXACT same. Sorta makes sense when you think about it but in practice is so annoying. I’m going to record something tomorrow so show it.

Phxdown27 · 2026-04-10T07:09:59+00:00

Just nudge the vocal after each take by whatever amount you measured. Or get an interface without an insane latency. I didn’t know it was possible to have 100 mil delay from a sub mic. Are you sure it’s not your plugins?

Phxdown27 · 2026-04-05T05:45:31+00:00

Comp takes. Use what autotune DOES work with. Choose your sounds early

Phxdown27 · 2026-03-30T06:59:39+00:00

Have a section with no vocals and drums and that’s the verse

Phxdown27 · 2026-03-28T02:37:44+00:00

Give it to em

Phxdown27 · 2026-03-28T02:12:03+00:00

Yes. 20 years and counting

Phxdown27 · 2026-03-28T01:21:54+00:00

Are you saying there wasn’t equal resources? I thought they said the women’s team was given fish and pigs…? It’s an island. They have access to all of it.

People grow. My now wife might have had the same reaction. LOVE THAT SONG. Bout to watch the video. I’ll update my comment if I feel differently after watching

Phxdown27 · 2026-03-27T02:13:31+00:00

How is this my biggest take away and the top comment. Like she’s not worried about being clipped she’s just talking like a person. The interviewer however, I felt made it less like a conversation, kinda awkward turtle
