Dear Fellow Audiofanziners!

I'd like to take this opportunity to present to you a super mixing contest that is going on right now organized by our friends at Puremix.com .  The GearFest Mixing Contest - quite possibly the biggest ever audio mixing contest is ON(!) with over $18K in high end Pro Audio equipment to be distributed to the winners.

Launched April 16th 2013, the race for mixing the best sounding version of Liza Colby Sound’s song ‘Oh Baby’ is on. The contest is free and is sponsored by the following companies : Dangerous Music, Focal Professional, Universal Audio, Blue Microphones, Presonus, Lauten Audio, Vovox and Sweetwater.

Tracked live on stage in front of a rap audience at Sweetwater’s GearFest 2012 during Dangerous Music’s recording seminar, ‘Oh Baby’ will keep contestants on the edge of their mixing chairs. 

The contest is completely platform independent: any DAW, any platform is welcome. The pureMix.net team and Fab Dupont will pick the 16 winners. Judges will focus on mixing skills and taste to pick the winners, not on what equipment was used.

Prize list, audio stems, and contest instructions are available for download at GearFest Mixing Contest | pureMix.net after free registration. As part of the contest package, contestants can watch a free video on how the song was recorded, complete with stepby- step explanation of every move, courtesy of pureMix.net .

The contest runs between April 16th 2013 and June 1st 2013. Winners will be announced at Sweewater’s GearFest 2013 on June 21st, contacted via email and announced on pureMix.net homepage.

Good luck to us all and free feel to discuss the contest, mixes etc. here in this thread
