  • Received: Your vocal is thin, so Nova's rule applies: no top boost, warmth at 200 Hz. Then her Juice chain: vocal up 4 dB, high-pass at 90, her plate at 30%, the slap delay for the shine, ad-libs darker behind it. One picture after each 👇
  • Before → after · 5 changes
  • Sent: less reverb
  • Received: Plate back to 15%. Did it work? Yes or no. That's what Nova's Juice WRLD-style mix is ranked on.

MixPilot

  • Sent: here's how I do a Juice WRLD style vocal mix
  • 🎤 Voice note · 11:40
  • Received: Here's what I got: “A Juice WRLD style vocal: bright, wet and melodic, sitting on top of the beat.” 6 steps: 1) clip gain first, never the compressor… 2 rules, 1 drill. Tools: the stock EQ, a plate and a slap delay. A few quick ones, one at a time. Skip any.
  • Received: A thin, nasal vocal comes in: A) boost 2–4 kHz for presence, or B) leave the top alone and add low mids? Why?
  • Sent: B. Boosting the top makes it harsh. I warm it around 200 and let the delay do the shine
  • Received: The ad-libs: A) the same chain as the lead, or B) darker and wider behind it? Why?
  • Sent: B, the lead has to be the brightest thing, like on Lucid Dreams
  • Received: Do you ever de-ess before the compressor? Yes or no.
  • Sent: No. After, always
  • Received: On a very fast song, can I shorten the slap delay? Yes or no.
  • Sent: Yes
  • Received: Saved, in your words: 2 rules, 1 never, 1 exception. I tested it on a sandbox project: every step runs in BandLab. Try it on one of your own songs, then say “make it public”.

What happens

Four texts from their sound on your song.

  1. 01

    Say hi

    MixPilot answers as itself and asks what you're working on. Signing up is a minute, by text: a name, a username, your age (13+).

  2. 02

    Pick an engineer, name the project

    Whose sound you want, the BandLab project, and how far to go: a little or a lot. The first time, you log in to BandLab yourself through a secure link; MixPilot never sees your password.

  3. 03

    Watch it work in your BandLab

    The engineer's method, applied to your song, one change at a time, with a picture of the mixer after each. Before and after at the end. Nothing is published, shared or deleted unless you say yes to a picture asking for it.

  4. 04

    Say whether it worked

    Yes or no. That's what the engineers are ranked on, and the only thing you ever pay for is an engineer you subscribe to.

An engineer's taste, not a preset

Their taste, MixPilot's hands. Use a style, or make yours.

Use one

Tap an engineer's branch link, pick one from the roster, or ask MixPilot for a sound, and it mixes your song the way they would: their chain, their order, their rules for a song like yours. No engineer in mind? Just tell it to mix your song from scratch.

Make yours

Sign up with your number and text MixPilot how you mix, or send a voice note. It organises your steps in your own words, asks the judgment calls as A or B and the standards as yes or no, tests it, and gives your branch a link when you say so. You keep 75% of what it earns.
