I had to take this week and do what I had to do in the studio. That way, moving forward, there would be no hiccup with Mixstein and what I'm teaching it to do right now. This is where I'm currently at.

Logic gang, Reason gang, Studio One gang, I see every one of your comments. You thought I forgot about you. This is what this week looked like. That's all I'm gonna say for now.

Most people will watch this and lock onto the speed. That's not the part that matters. The part that matters is what it didn't touch. I just dropped a video showing MIXSTEIN gain staging a 50-track session and running a '90s boom-bap dimension recipe. Live. No hands on the mouse. But watch the 50-track pass: it gain staged 41 tracks and left 9 alone. On the recipe, it put moves on some individual tracks, some on the buses, and skipped the ones that didn't need anything. Then it told me why. That's the whole thing. Every other AI tool processes everything, because all it does is pattern match. Mine makes a call about what to leave alone. That's not data training. That's 20 years of my decisions baked in. It's role-aware too, so it knows a snare from a sample from a guitar without me labeling a single track. Full walkthrough's in the video, link below. I'm opening beta testing soon and only pulling a small handful out of here. If you want a real shot, drop a comment on this post so I know who's serious. One question: when you're cleaning up a mix, what kills your momentum the most? Gain staging, de-essing, or balancing faders? That's the first thing I'm pointing MIXSTEIN at. ://youtu.be/r2yLN3h4Tic

I'll go first. I'm TouchTone DSG — 20+ years behind the console. Hybrid studio running Neve 5059 Satellite, SSL Fusion, FATSO, Lynx Aurora N, MPC Live II, and Ableton. I came up on boom bap, fell in love with anime/LoFi remixes, and I geek out over signal flow and compression topologies more than any normal person should. Right now I'm building an AI-powered mixing assistant trained on everything I've learned in 20 years of sessions. You'll see that journey documented here first.
