volumes if they clip. sometimes transitions are louder than the separate tracks, so i'll lower the sound on those too. obviously the silence in the beginning and end. but i won't copy/paste transitions. gotta do it right.

I purchased Cubase so I could clean up my mixes (and I bought it because I want to start producing soon) a little and make them sound crisp and clean. Also, someone on the boards told me before that he runs his mixes thru a program called T-Racks. I don't know much about that program, but I think I am going to be checking into it soon. Cubase is going to take some time to get used to.

i master my mixes, i've even edited a bad transition
editing in the music world is like airbrushing in the modeling world
pretty much any "mix" that is released commercially has been done in pro-tools
they'll use the tracklist and probably the same cue points but it will be mixed using a computer
i also sell my cds, this is me putting my best foot forward, a record of what i've done
because not only am i putting this out as a dj, but as a professional producer as well
i totally see your point of view Tony....and agree - i appreciate the flawless, professionally produced mixes.
only thing i'd like to say is that i like the feeling of being able to hand out a demo/promo mix that came straight off my decks, real-time...i like knowing that people are listening to my skill on the decks - it's what they are going to get when i play live...and i am not handing them something that's so perfect i can't live up to.
^ i think what he meant was that by him selling his cd's he would not want to sell anything less than perfect, (not saying your mixes are'nt perfect either) but if it's just a demo your giving to someone you already know, i would'nt worry about the finishing touches, but if it's an 'album' or 'mix cd' for commercial use, then fuck ya master it and finish it to the best of your abilities.
