Have you ever wondered: what is the best song instrument Splitter? Maybe you're seeking answers to the questions: what is the difference between Logic Pro and RipX DAW, how do you separate songs into stems, how do you extract stems from Logic, what is an AI stem splitter or maybe just what is a song stem splitter? Then check out EP 158 of the Inside The Mix podcast.
Can stem separation tools really make or break your music production? Join me, as I put Logic Pro’s stem splitter and Rip-X DAW’s track separator to the ultimate test using my song, "Alive," as our battlefield. I’ll dissect how each tool isolates key elements such as drums, vocals, bass, and other instruments, paying close attention to qualities like snare impact, reverb treatment, and the clarity of cymbals and hi-hats. Discover which software triumphs in delivering cleaner, more precise stems, and which one falls short with issues like Logic Pro's phasy snare.
I'll also zero in on the bass and vocal tracks in this episode to determine the ultimate victor. Hear how Logic Pro’s bass separation, with its mid-range frequency emphasis and somewhat underwater sound, stacks up against Rip-X’s richer, bass-heavy output. When it comes to vocals, see why Logic Pro’s thinner, high-pass filter effect is no match for Rip-X’s vibrant clarity. By the end, Rip-X clinches the win with a 3-1 score, proving its superiority in both bass and vocal stem separation.

Have you ever wondered: what is the best song instrument Splitter? Maybe you're seeking answers to the questions: what is the difference between Logic Pro and Gaudio, how do you separate songs into stems, how do you extract stems from Logic, what is an AI stem splitter or maybe just what is a song stem splitter? Then check out EP 154 of the Inside The Mix podcast.
Discover which stem splitter reigns supreme as I dive into a detailed comparison between Logic Pro's stem splitter and Gaudio's stem splitter. I reveal the strengths and weaknesses of each tool, especially when dealing with key elements like the kick, snare, and reverb tails in a synthpop remix. Learn how Logic Pro maintains the kick's power but struggles with phase issues and muddiness, while Gaudio offers a balanced high-frequency output but sacrifices some snare body. Your remixing needs could be transformed by understanding these nuances!
In the latter half of the episode, I venture into the intricate handling of guitars, synths, drums, bass, and vocals during a chorus. Hear firsthand how Logic Pro falters with guitar prominence and synth clarity, whereas Gaudio delivers a fuller, more vibrant sound.Send me a Message

Have you ever wondered if it's hard to organise a synthwave music festival? Maybe you're seeking help on the topics: how to start a music festival, how to create a budget for a festival, or what makes a good festival. Then check out EP 153 of the Inside The Mix podcast.
Can you imagine transforming your synthwave studio project into a live performance at a historic castle in Schloss Bevern, Germany? Join me for an intriguing conversation with Rainer Aschemeier, aka UAP, host of the "Let's Talk Synth... Seriously" podcast, as we explore his ambitious journey from the studio to the stage. Rainer shares the challenges and strategies of coordinating international collaborations with artists like the Martin Brothers from Switzerland and Katie Tich from the USA. We also touch on the often-overlooked power of traditional promotion methods, such as posters and flyers, in the digital age and how these can be crucial in bringing a local event to life.
Sound design lovers, this one's for you! We discuss the art of sound design and the transformative impact of live performances on music production. Drawing from insights from Rainer, we highlight how live shows can inspire more intentional sound choices and elevate your recordings. Plus, hear about Rainer’s discovery of Katie Tich through Landr, and the logistical hurdles he overcame to bring her from the USA to Germany for a concert. This chapter underscores the importance of live mixing and the creative opportunities it opens for artists.
We also dive into the nuts and bolts of planning and executing live concerts. Rainer walks us through his two-year collaboration with Katie, from recording their single "Talita" to the financial and technical challenges of bringing their project to a live audience. Learn how they navigated financing through gig salaries and a Kickstarter campaign, with expert insights from Brian Hazard of Color Theory on mixing and mastering. Whether you're an artist, a sound engineer, or an event planner, this episode is packed with practical advice and motivation to elevate your music projects.
