LO4

For the following  mixes I found the originals on a copyright free website. I download each song as individual tracks and imported them in to Cubase which I then edited. I altered the volume, added pans, fades and some reverberation to each track to make it sound better than what it already did. 

Mix one 





Mix two 






Mix three DRAFT






After hearing back this track without headphones on I realized that is was extremely distorted and the  
sound was very UN professional 
Below is a booklet I created showing all print screens taken throughout this process It shows you exactly how I created them. 








Below is my screen shots of when I had to go back and change my mix 3 sound

Evaluation 

During the length of this project I had to mix three different tracks. I downloaded them as separate tracks from a copyright free site. I imported them into Cubase in which I then started to mix them. My first mix had six tracks, it was easier to mix than my third mix as my third mix has many more tracks. I listened to each instrument separately and and firstly started experimenting with the software. After my teacher had instructed me on what I could add or improve to my track I started to use fades and transitions so that when people hear the track through headphones it would fade from the left headphone to the right. I kept my first track quite simple especially as it was only around one minute. When it came to my second and third track I added more  challenging components to the track, this included reverberation and distortion.
