DubStemMix does one thing: a live dub mix of one tune's stems, on a console. Here is how it compares with the software people already use, and when the other one is the better pick.
Why DubStemMix
- Made for one thing: the dub version. The stems of a tune on six faders, three dub sends each, the throw, the drop, the spring crash.
- Ready as it opens: nothing to build, nothing to map on the Akai MIDImix.
- Stem separation included: any song becomes drums, bass, instruments and vocals.
- Free and open source, MIT.
