“Melodyne had been set to A-432 as per the request of a previous client who also happens to be a person who thinks the earth is flat.”
HAHAHA That’s pure gold!
This was f****** hilarious
I burst out laughing when I read that.
Saw these guys in Manchester UK, stoked to be mixing them!!
Yes! I can’t wait to get home from work and start on this. I really like abr, and I’m anxious to hear the raw guitar and vocal tracks from them. Thanks guys

Hi guys, the European session contains a bunch of short tracks (mainly drums, a couple of guitars) that are either not supposed to be placed at the beginning of the song or not supposed to be on the session at all, I’m loading the files on Logic not PT…could someone please check?
Hi Davide, I’ve downloaded from the European link and everything seems good here. 113 wav files (inc split stereo files). I think the second set of shorter drum tracks are a recording of each drum at different volume levels to be cut up and used as samples in case you need them anywhere in the mix. A common practice but I’ve not seen them included before, so kudos to Carson Slovak and Grant McFarland for looking after us so well! A real privilege to be mixing this, thank you!
Ok thank you!
I also found a couple of short guitar tracks I’m not sure what use they have, but I’ll figure it out.
The short guitar tracks are garbage. delete those. The short drum tracks however are sample sessions in case you need to replace any drums.
I think it’s the recording of the drum in case you need to replace a hit and it’s bleed.
Hey dudes! Downloaded the session, there’s no midi files or tempo maps. I have a .PTX session and .WAV files. Tried to re-download, send me to a does not exist page.
try downloading it again
I rejoined this month and i can’t find the multis for this session, any ideas?
Hello,
I just made sure your account was properly up to date – please log off and login.
I’m having the same issue Amrish, may you please update my account as well. Thanks Brother
If you log off and log into your account you will see it 🙂
Now it works, thanks!
same problem
Pumped to get to work on this one!
It keeps redirecting me to the old site, which I don’t have access to 🙁
If you log out and log back into your account you should be able to go to the Nail the Mix section and view the material on the website 😀
Damn, can’t seem to get access to the stems despite having Enchanced, anyone else having issues?
Hello Ravian,

thanks for including the midi info. this will be fun 🙂
PRO TOOLS BRETHERAN….. DO ANY OF YOU KNOW HOW TO MAKE THE MIDI TRACKS TRIGGER IN SLATE TRIGGER 2? CAN’T FIGURE IT OUT
I’ve never been able to get Trigger to work with MIDI in. Easiest workaround I fuck with is use the MIDI to make a lil drum hit from something easy like Boom and set the release pretty short. This basically makes a DIY trigger audio for Trigger!
I’m not a PT user but can offer the following: edit the MIDI tracks to determine which MIDI channel and note value they use for each instrument you want to use with Trigger 2. On each Trigger 2, go into the Settings and configure the desired MIDI channel and note values. Myself, I use a specific MIDI map in my sessions and will change the MIDI channel and note value in the provided MIDI tracks to match rather than reconfiguring Trigger 2 and Kontakt to match the session. Make sense ?
Thanks for the reply. I went through every single note value in trigger 2 and the sample never triggered. 🙁
Hi I’m sorry for being late on this topic but if you’re still looking to figure it out. The first easy to do it for Trigger 2 is to put trigger on an instrument track and paste the midi information to the instrument track. Make sure you know what piano note the midi notes are falling on. Snare usually D1 but could be different. THEN open Trigger and on the left click settings, make sure “MIDI In (channel, note)” is checked on and set the channel to any and then select the appropriate midi note for whatever instrument you’re doing so its listening to the right piano note. I personally didnt use the midi channel for snare on this one but I looked and its on F#5 so if you’re doing snare make sure to set it to F#5 and you should be good to start loading your samples. If you’re trying something else let me know and i can show you how to route it/set it up properly.
Hi guys, I don’t have access to the session, tried to log off and log in but is still the same.
Hello Edgar,

Really enjoying this months session. Thanks guys xxx
I submitted a support ticket, but I’ll post here as well. I can’t get into this session. I can’t download the files.
Hello Loren,
If you log off and log into your account you should be able to see it. I just checked my records. If that doesn’t work please clear your browser cache and cookies and it should work. Another way to test it is in private browsing mode.
The tracking is a work of art in this session, I’m having a blast mixing it!
Hi can anyone tell me where to find the link to the files? I am a new member as of yesterday and I can’t find the link, the session for Return to Earth is open for though.
Hi Kevin,

I’d also like to comment and say that I can’t access the files. Logged in and out, tried a different browser as well. (Note: Not pissed off, just being a squeaky wheel)
Hello,
According to my records you should have the proper access, can you please try using it in private browsing and see if the issue persists after logging ing?
It won’t let me download August Burns Red. It keeps trying to get me to sing up again. Please Help!
Hello Dave,
If you log off and log into your account – you should see the content, additionally I e-mailed you at [email protected] with a question if you don’t mind answering when you get a chance!
Ya Amrish, I can’t access the session either. It’s taking me to a “sign up now” page. I’m definitely signed up so I’m not sure what the issue would be. I’ve signed out and signed back in on multiple browsers too.
Hello Mike,
I have gone ahead and adjusted your account, you will have access now to the content, additionally I have e-mailed you over at [email protected] as I hope you can help us with an issue!

Amrish, any idea what’s going on in my situation?
My download always seems to fail…
Hello Jonah,
I would suggest trying the multiple links we have available – if you are trying at various points of the day and are still having issues, please reach out to support at urmsupport.com
I’m also having the same issue as you. Also with the previous months multi-track. Are you from Asia/PH too?
Can’t download – a purchase page is opening instead. Am I doing something wrong? Thank you
Hello,
According to my records – it looks like on the 7th you requested your account to be cancelled.
I believe this FAQ article to best describe how our subscription services work. I will also ask for you to refer back to the cancellation message on the page you filled out –

Same here hmmm
I can’t open this session. I have tried multiple browsers, private browsing, logging out and in, etc. I can open some other earlier sessions. I sent in a ticket to URM support on Sunday and haven’t heard back. Any help would be appreciated!
Hello Tyler,
I e-mailed you a special link – it’s a split zip file, use a program like KEKA to put it back together!
Thanks for your help, i’m able to open the session now 🙂
Hey Amrish, I’m having a similar problem with not being able to see the content.
Hey Austin,

Hello Brian,
Please log off and log into your account and you will see the content 🙂
Is there any way you guys could send an e-mail reminding us of the deadline. I was late to the last one and it’d be nice if that was possible.
Hey Caleb, we may just do that but here’s a question for you – are you in our Facebook group?
I would love to join a FB group id there is one. What’s the name?
Hey homie. You can use your phone to set up reminders for you if you have the voice assistant activated. On my android I just say “Ok Google. Remind me to submit to nail the mix on november 26th at noon” and my phone will pop up a reminder that sunday. so I remember to submit today. 😀
true. haha.
Hello! New member here.
Regarding the mixing poll submissions… Should it be mastered or do I send just the mixed unmastered mp3?
That is totally up to you
Totally up to you
I joined NTM yesterday and just finished the basic mix of this track. Had so much fun with it! Much better than random multitrack covers by random dudes you find on the internet!
A man who gets it! Thanks for being here!
I Had fun with these tracks, I don’t get to submit much ( maybe 1 or 2 over the last year) but I had a day off and said F it ! I Just submitted , good luck to all and thank you URM.
just joined this. were do i find the multitracks to mix ?
It’s on this page 🙂
I finished to mix the song. Where do I upload it?
Hi Luis,
Sorry for the late reply but the submission instructions are always on the page that you downloaded the stems from 🙂
Submitted my mix an hour ago and accidentally picked the file version that still needed a little tweaking. Sent a second version and then learned immediately after that there’s no mulligan, just to finish a third version that sounds substantially better. Oh well, live and learn. Still an incredibly fun song to mix and these stems alone were worth the money spent. Can’t wait to see the live mixing session, and good luck to everyone who’s submitting!
Just submitted 1 minute before deadline. Mixed in <3 hours (without template). Track sounds like it's mixed in <3 hours lol
Awesome files, what’s next month? 🤘🏻
Hey,
is it possible that I sent my mix, recieved the “submission recieved” e-mail, but still I couldn’t find my version on the voting site. Not in top 20 neither in the rest. Thanks a lot for answering 🙂
Hello David,
Out of all 502 submissions in November 2017 – only 50 people were notified. The top 20 and the other 30 being our secondary poll.
If you did not make it – that just means your mix didn’t make the cut this month. Give it another shot and see how it goes!
So is there anywhere that we can access this poll and listen to all the other mixes or is that internal only for you guys? Or is there somewhere where we can access the voting site?
When the months pass we usually hide the previous mix polls, but if you wait until the next one is posted you can search backwards by changing the date in the URL.
I know I’m a month late but this mix session has been the best for me so far. The way that Carson and Grant mix really suit my music. Keep them coming guys!!!
Why im i getting some snare hits out of time? I just got this one as a gift, but i don´t understand how to get the song right to mix, i did already the midi map thing, and it was all well, but im getting these snare hits out of time and i don´t know why… Somebody could help me with this?
Sadly, my computer’s CPU can’t handle this :/
