Yesterday we talked about how inspiration and motivation are meaningless factors for productivity.

The power of taking action reigns supreme for becoming a more productive home studio musician and this week I'm talking about productivity to celebrate the launch of my latest guide, Better Mixes in Less Time, and eBook that teaches you a solid workflow to become a more productive mixing engineer.

Now, one of the things us mixing engineers need to sharpen our skills are songs to mix.

Painters can paint from an empty canvas. Writers can start with the blank page.

But us mixing engineers...we need multi-tracks otherwise we're screwed.

If you've been needing more multi-tracks to practice your mixing skills have I got a RESOURCE for you!

You might have heard about Mixing Secrets for the Small Studio by Mike Senior.

It's a great book that shows you how to create great mixes in even the smallest bedroom studios.

But what you might not know is that his book has an amazing companion site, complete with countless multi tracks available for download and practice.

Whatever genre you're interested in, from Bubblegum Pop to Electronic Punk, he's got it.

Simply download the files, import them into your DAW of choice and start practicing your mixing skills.

What Should You Do With These Multi Tracks?

If you're starting out, it's hard to showcase your mixing skills when you haven't done any work for anyone.

Also, it's hard to take advantage of all these production tips that you read online when you don't have any tracks to try them on.

There's no better way to hone your mixing skills than to work on a wide variety of different projects. With all these different genres, you can try every mixing trick you've ever learned or read about.

So take advantage of all these free multi-tracks and really dig into making your mixing skills shine.
