Missing required files
The lead vocal double, guitar DI, or ad-lib track never made it into the folder.
Turn your mix-prep checklist into a client upload link that collects the files, notes, and references you need.
The 6 file handoff problems that delay mixes
The lead vocal double, guitar DI, or ad-lib track never made it into the folder.
Files do not all start at 0:00, so the session becomes detective work before mixing starts.
No arrangement map, no quick vibe check, and no easy way to spot what is missing.
The client says “make it hit,” but gives you no taste, tone, or direction.
Editing, tuning, comping, and deliverables are left for you to chase down later.
Lossy files, mixed specs, and names like “audio_47” slow down import and review.
How it works
Required files, rough mix, references, export rules, and project details — saved as a reusable intake link.
Missing files, wrong formats, unclear naming, and unanswered confirmations are caught before submission.
Clean files, notes, and references are all in one place. Download and start mixing.
