Hi:
This is a question for anyone who is a Mix Engineer.
I'm presently done tracking and am looking to send my tracks to a mix engineer. As I look for an engineer, I wanted to start the process of readying the tracks to send. Personal preference aside, I'm guessing most Engg's have a standard format they follow. I was hoping that someone here could perhaps answer some of the Qns I had so I can be decently prepared and not waste my Engineers time !!
All my pieces are recorded in 48/24. All tracks are being bounced from 0:00 to the end of the song.
As a Mix Engineer is your preference from your clients to
Anything else I can do to make my engineers job easy and any other advice would be most appreciated !!
Thanks so much in advance !

- A lot of the tracks have EQ, reverb, delay, pan setting, volume setting / tracking [envelope], fade ins and fade outs.
- The heavy guitars and lead guitar have delay and verb and sometimes phasers and such.
- Some tracks have percussion which were sent to a plugin to beef up the sound and increase the bass.
- The Drum tracks are panned for my rough mixes
As a Mix Engineer is your preference from your clients to
- Render each WAV without effect and without fade-ins and fade outs ?
- Render the Heavy Guitars with distortion, but without delay / reverb ?
- Send the original percussion without the plugin Or send with and without the plugin ?
- Send the plugin name they were using to get a certain effect ?
- Request all tracks be sent with 0 pan and at 0.0dB volume so you can set it as the mix requires
Anything else I can do to make my engineers job easy and any other advice would be most appreciated !!
Thanks so much in advance !
