I have just finished recording a song on Protools and it sounds good. However, I can’t seem to mix it down to a professional sound quality. I am interested in paying a professional recording engineer mix down my song. Can anyone tell me what is the average price range for getting a song mixed?
Thank you.

Before I went and spent money, or more should I say, I would have to ask myself what am I going to do with this recorded piece of work once it is "mixed."

If the answer is "I'll prolly just give a copy to me buds and me mum" then you have two options.

One:
Have some fun and learn to mix the thing yourself.

Thanks but I have to submit some music to well-established Record Execs and its mandatory for my music to sound professional. I do not have time to deal with a learning curve. Does anyone have a good idea what is a descent price for me to get a song mixed? Thank you.

Great mixing is essential these days. If you havent got the skills yet but your talent lies in production or playing, its best to hire someone. But if you've got time its worth learning. These days its not that difficult to get tracks into film and TV but they need to sound polished. I've been getting tracks into major film / TV and games for years and do all the mixing as well as the production obviously, having taught myself over the years.


Good luck
