I have been using Pro Tools as a songwriting tool for the last 10 months and would love to get some help in setting up my system with a mixing template or two. Previously to this I have only recorded to 2" tape and the engineer did all that stuff for me! My template that I made has some virtual instr tracks, a midi keyboard controller track, as far as the audio tracks go to buss all my tracks to a stereo bus that goes to a stereo track called submix and the assign the output of submix to a master fader. On my audio tracks the first plug I use is Analog Chan AC1 Consule 3. my mixes are OK but a good template could save me years of learning, to give you an idea of what Im after in the mix: the records I like are the two UNKLE albums both very well mixed and state of the art in the indie/dance genre My system consists of PT HD2 G5 Dual Core Plugs: HD1 pack, Revibe, H3000 factory, Oxford EQ, Analog Channel, Channel G, Fairchild 660, McDSP Synth One, Pure Pitch HD The templates I need are a PT sessions with a few blank tracks showing me plugin settings etc and bussing Starting point for Stereo Mix to go to mastering house Starting point for Stereo Mix with limiting compression to go to record company as demo Starting point for Stem Mix of six stereo tracks to go to mastering house Another option I would gladly pay for a complete remix of a tune if I can get the entire Pro Tools project back email contact thanks in advance Dave
