View Full Version : Using Logic Pro 8 for Continuous Mix?!?!

Hey All,

Some friends and I decided to have a "Slow Mix" contest: 12 songs, 3 songs per decade starting from 1970 to present. Anyway, I decided to play with Logic (trying to learn) and do the mix all in software instead of using Serato. So I have about 15 audio tracks in logic (3 tracks of sound effects, like rain storms). What I'd like to do is keep the volume levels steady throughout the mix since I plan on burning this to a CD (with markers, separate tracks).

Has anyone done this before? I know I could have made one track with all twelve songs slapped together one after the other (using cross-fade) but I thought it'd be better to keep them separate.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

~ Izm

It sounds like you know what you are doing. Having each song on its own audio track (mixer channel) will make it easier to get your over-all volume level constant.

Get the mix recorded as one long stereo aif or wav. Afterwards you can do the chopping into separate tracks for CD burning in a basic audio editor.

Thanks a lot. I'll probably just split it up in Peak Pro. I thought you could do it in Logic though. No problem.

Peace....
