Minimal Mix Train #1

[bumtsch]

So, how are we doing?

edit:nvm, Hypernia's part got uploaded two days ago - I'll listen to it on my commute. I should be getting my audio8/x1/timecodes back today...

There's 7 mins of dead air at the end that I forgot to chop off btw.

[Woah]

Hm, I'll be doing the mix with just cdj's recording it straight into audacity, but I'm worried about the audio levels, how do you go about getting the levels and such just right so it doesn't sound like crap?

[Hypernia]

I did the same, but with goldwave. I just kept an eye on the waveform as it recorded so I had a reference for volume. Other than that, I can't help. My recording came out a little bassey I figured it was fine since minimal tends to have a bold emphasis on the bass line. If your issue is relating to equalizing there should be an equalizing tool in audacity. I've used the one in goldwave to fix shitty recordings, but there is only so much you can do with it. Just avoid clipping and distortion and you should be fine.

The most important part is to watch your levels. It's better to record it a little quiet all the way through and then boost the volume in Audacity when your done.

Will post process (snip/merge/level) and upload tomorrow.

Uploading to dropbox as we speak (man, is this thing sloooooow).

Steve Bug - Play My Game
John Tejada - Mono On Mono

Matthew Dear - Hammers
Lucio Aquilina & Gabriel Del Prete - Pret A Porter
Mike Dehnert - Lautschrift
Gaiser & Heartthrob - Nasty Girl

Added the tracklist to an extra txt in the folder following Hypernia's lead.
And I think for future mixtrains I'll stick to sync... unless I can get my hand on an affordable pair of 1200s with clean faders.

Post here when it's done uploading Bumtsch. I just checked and there's just two track lists in there now.
