Basic Mixing

Our basic online mixing service allows you to mix a song with less than 15 audio tracks. This service is mainly designed to mix vocals recorded on a 2-track instrumental. But it is also suitable for piano-vocals, guitar-vocals or any project that would contain less than 15 audio tracks (stereo or mono).

With our basic mixing service, your song will be professionally mixed by our mixing engineer. A high quality audio file (WAV) will then be ready to get mastered by a mastering engineer (not ready for streaming platforms!)

As soon as you have sent the needed files and they have been validated by our mixing engineer, we will start working on the mix. If it’s a vocal project recorded on a stereo beat, the sound engineer will focus on the vocals. We will make them sound more exciting, warm, bright and we’ll be as creative as we can, as it is our signature here. But we will also usually process the instrumental to make it fit with the vocals.

With a basic mixing service, a first version of the mix will be sent within 3 to 4 days. Except if a too high workload does not allow us to be in time. IDeez will send you directly a message if such is the case. We offer 2 free revisions to all our clients, without exception.

For basic mixing services, we work exclusively in digital, with the very best plugins on the market. Universal Audio, FabFilter, iZotope, Slate Digital, Waves, Antares and Arturia are the main plugin manufacturers we work with.

Analog processing can be added as an option.

Here’s the audio processing included in this online mixing service:

• Balance
• Advanced automation
• Noise removal
• Breath cleaning
• Dynamic compression
• Equalization
• Tonal compression
• Soft saturation
• Auto-tuning
• Adding effects (reverb and delay)
• Special effects (chorus, phaser, flanger,…)
• And any tool to would boost our creativity for mixing music

Not included (unless checked in options.): Manual tuning / radio editing (for censored versions) / live show versions / tempo editing / drum editing / stem export / analog processing

All mix and master files will be sent via Google Drive through a link dedicated to your project. In WAV and mp3. These files are archived after 1 year.

Here is all the information you need about the options of our online services.

Rush order: This option allows you to reduce the turnaround time of a service by 2 or 3 days. Unless for mastering services, which will be reduced by 24 hours. Please contact us before you tick this option, to make sure a sound engineer is available for a rush order.

Unlimited tracks: You have more than 15 audio tracks to mix? Then please tick this option to remove the limit and mix projects with as many audio tracks as you want!

Analog mix and/or master: This option allows you to add an analog touch to your mix and/or master. If ticked, we will use the hardware gear we have in our studio for your mix and/or master.

Manual tuning: You want to correct the pitch of your lead vocal with precision but without the robotic and digital aspect of autotune? You want to enjoy a natural pitch correction instead? This option will give you that advantage. We’ll use Melodyne 5, the leader in this field, to manually tune your lead vocal.

Stem export: If you need to receive all your mixed audio tracks separately, then please tick this option. We will then take care of exporting each track with all our audio processing incorporated. All files are exported in stereo WAV format.

Clean version: If you want to be on the radio, you’ll have to have a clean, censored version available. By ticking this box, you make sure you have a clean version on hand just in case.

Live show mix: This option will allow you to enjoy a version of your mix in which the lead vocal level is reduced by a few dB. This leaves room to place a live lead vocal over the rest of the instrumental.

2 stems or more (for mastering): This options allows you to master a mixed song separated in several stems (up to 5 audio stems). We will then use each stem to master your song and make it uploadable on all streaming platforms.
