Stereo Mixing Calculator
Stereo Mixing Calculator
I build a calculator for setting up a stereo mix.
It includes at the moment a calculation for reverb and delay.
Later I will add
- eq and compression informations for each instrument
- an ableton live project with presets to control the parameters calculated in the tool
- an explanation or video and
- if I'am good enough, everything controlable via Max (here I need assistance).

If you have advises, advise me.
CHROME does not show the images for description.

Mixing scheme
This is the mixing scheme, which I want to share with you as an ableton live project in the future.

Version 0.50 - Compression settings
I released an update of the tool.
Now it includes simple compression setting informations.
Later it will include a setup list for attack and release for each instrument type.

Stereo Mixing Preset
I have created a preset file "Stereo Mixing Preset" for Ableton 11.2.10 (Download link below).
This preset has three main sections.
1. Composition (Arrangement)
2. Routing
3. Mixing (Mixing, FX = seperate send effects , X = Delay, Y = Room height, Z = Room depth)
For more informations look at the scheme above.
A friend of mine composed a little example for the preset. It shows how it is applied.
We used Ableton standard sets for the instruments.
Settings of the example for the calculator you can copy from the notices of the info track.

Version 0.52 - Graphic update
A beautification update and some small other optimizations.
Version 0.55 - Feature update
New features:
1. change instrument setting
2. copy instrument setting
3. move instrument setting[/list]
1. change instrument setting

Version 0.60 - Feature update
New features:
1. Gate settings
2. Plate settings
3. Compression settings
Gate and compression are still work in progress. At the end these features include settings for hard, middle and soft configuration.
Some presets I will optimize in the future.

Version 0.61 - Direct Delay
I have added a delay information in the instrument settings panel:
Distance of the instrument to the listener for emulating the delay of sub bass or over tones.
This is the third dimension for recognition the instrument in the room. It represents the delay of the sound of an instrument, which the listener recives.
I made a correction of the layout in the instrument settings panel too.
With the next step I will integrate pictures to visualize the main eq triggers for every instrument type.
It is not a tool for myself.
So give it a try.

Version 0.80 - Equalizer
With this version I release eq settings for each instrument in the mix. Thanx delamar.de (my all time favorite source for mixing informations) for the most of the eq setting informations. Some thoughts of mine are presented here too. The scheme is not finished at all, but I think 80% are.
For future features I have to think about. For me this is the final alpha version.
Have fun with it.
