this is a dream come true, can’t wait to dwell into this session and hopefully win! 🤘🤘🤘
Me either
I’m really looking forward to to this NTM track this month !!!!! gonna be sick !!!
It also says “12 comments” but I can only see 3.
I have the exact some problem ‘Adrian’, however I did sent a ticket through and they yet to respond, they did send an auto reply stating that it can be tough to reply in the beginning of the month. So all we can do is wait, but Ill try and keep this post informed with any more info I get.
same and same
Guess I won’t be working on this session for a while.
Guys everything it’s going ok since yesterday (May 2) I’ve alredy done with my first mix. so everything it’s working! session is open and download it’s ok!
I love the new layout
New layout is awesome! Can’t wait to get started on this months tracks!
So thankful to be able to mix one of my favorite bands from when I was in High school. Thank you for getting these guys into NTM. This track is legendary!
BTW, Anyone notice the “pops” in the guitars? There are a bunch of others throughout the other instrument and vocal waves but I was trying to fix some of these pops in the guitars but Each repeat section throughout the song has the same problems. Solution? Work around? Should I just retrack those parts myself?? Super curious. Thanks for all the help, if you can PM me here or on facebook I would appreciate the help and insight. Cheers.
They were placed there intentionally. We covered it in the QNA and also in the Facebook group several times. Go check there.
Jusus. Sweet migration
I just started mixing this track yesterday and I’m almost finished. It’s an awesome track to mix!
Every time I download the tracks there are no wave files that populate in my DAW once I load them in. Is anyone else having issues with the wav files being blank?
A bit of a noob. How can do I use the tempo map properly?
I cant open the zip file which unzip app do i need to unzip this?
You should just be able to unzip via the normal unzipping utilities included with your operating system. If it did not work, please try to re-download.
Does anyone experience a lot of clicks in the audio?
Had a blast mixing this song! Finally got a good template setup and hopefully i’ll finish the mix this week!
Beau’s mix has some super solid low end and is great all around, I can’t wait to watch the live feed.
Anyone else notice the click/pops on a guitar track and at the end of a vocal track? I thought I was clipping something until I looked at the waveform lol. Had fun mixing it otherwise. I look forward to the class and more mixing!
Whoa, all bass tracks are different performances. And looks like kick drum was recorded separately. URM never fail to surprise me with different production styles every month…
Hey Guys. Anyone else experiencing clicking noise in some of the stem files?
I am, but it’s not too big of an issue for me
I did, yes. A lot in the guitars but its sounds a bit more natural there than they vocals. I put Waves “X-crackle” on the vocals and it took care of any cracks or clicks I was experiencing.
Yes. I’m assuming that is part of the challenge to mix this song. They won’t make it easy!
You are correct!
yes there are some clicks and pops
Yes. Almost all of them. Had to spend some time cleaning it up.
Hey Jay, i’ve also noticed clicks and pops on some of the stems. Anyone else experiencing this? Should mention this isn’t a sample rate/latency issue as you can hear them on the raw stems/see them on the transients.
They were actually itentionally placed there by Beau so that he could cover ways to fix it but more importantly, so that the community would figure out ways to fix it and help each other out.
Yeah man there are a few in there. I just went in and cut them our surgically and popped in some millisecond fades. Not ideal, but seems to have tidied it up.
By the way, for those who are using Reaper, there’s a relatively new feature that shows spectre instead of just waveforms. Helped a lot, you can find all the clicks just by eyeballing the spectrum.
I did the same
Finally joined NTM and wouldn’t you know it my internet isn’t good enough to download the session without failing.
Hello Zak,

How do you know if you made top 20 or top 50?
You’ll get an email that you made the top 20 or top 50 once the polls are live.
