I'm surprised...I can still hear you quite well over the songs as loud as they are. I would have thought you would have to lower the levels on the songs to talk over them and come across clear.

[musicradiocreative]

That's a great point and something I didn't cover in this video. It's a good idea to lower the levels on music tracks so you can hear the voice over with more clarity. My latest tutorial is on video on volume & stereo pan. I hope it compliments this video!

Excellent video. I think you should produce another beat mix montage but I think myself, and others, would like to see you produce a more challenging beat mix montage because you must get orders sometimes and wonder how on earty am I going to pull that one off!

[musicradiocreative]

Thanks! It can take anywhere from half an hour to half a day or more depending on the type of tunes involved. I love beat mixing dance and pop music because the beats are easy to identify and match. Rock music, for instance, presents a bigger challenge.

Is there ever a time when you think "oh god, this will be a bad beat mix montage!" or, after seeing their order details, do you think "the beat mix montage will never be possible I will email the client and ask them to re-select their songs?"

[musicradiocreative]

I'll always look for a way to make any idea work. I've not had Edith Piaf vs. The Prodigy yet... but I'd love to give it a go.

what a garbage tutorial

it does not show you how to beat match at all

[slinkipie]

and if the two tracks are a different BPM????????

[gm20102010]

So what exactly are you teaching us hear? I thought you were going to show us how to mix together 2 songs with different bpm's into one particular bpm...

Does anyone else notice what that last audio wave looks like?

[rocket933]

just go buy a used copy of acid pro 3. or higher for 50 bucks

[jbx907]

I hope demonstrate how to modify and beat mix different bpm sources

[DJFROGi]

@dmsthf9 I've uploaded a video that shows you how to beatmix songs of different tempos in Audition, this video is kind of useless...

[gauthamseran]

Hey, love your tutorials. I'm using Audition 5.5. I'm trying to adjust the tempo of loop files from adobe loopology and I'm unable to do that. Can you help me out Mike?
