Nashville, TN (April 29, 2024)—Focusrite and ADAM Audio, part of the Focusrite Group Professional, Americas, will take over The Gallery at Starstruck Studios and host a pair of expert panels on immersive music mixing and mastering as part of Mix Nashville: Immersive Music Production II, to be held on Saturday, May 11, along the famed Music Row, followed by a nighttime Studio Crawl in the nearby Berry Hill neighborhood.
“We will certainly be showing the latest in RedNet technology, and at the Studio Crawl we’ll be playing engineer-curated tracks through a full 7.1.4 ADAM Audio monitor system at GC Pro’s Custom House, but during the day, with so much talent on hand, we think that it’s important to talk about the creative aspects, the big picture, the techniques,” says Dave Rieley, Director, Focusrite Group Professional, Americas. “Immersive music is still pretty new, and there is a lot of knowledge and expertise out there. Let’s talk about it!”
The panels and panelists at The Gallery, Starstruck Studios, include:
Demystifying Immersive Mastering
While mix engineers are embracing and creating amazing immersive mixes, the step of mastering for immersive is being mostly ignored. Our panel of professional engineers have a proven track record of mastering audio in the immersive format and will discuss why it is critical to have your mixes mastered by a mastering engineer who is familiar with the format and challenges that could arise.

The State of Immersive Mixing
This was a very popular panel at last year’s Mix Nashville immersive music event. This year, we’ll be revisiting the topic of mixing in immersive to discuss developments to the format and key technologies that assist in the mixing workflow. It is clear that immersive is here to stay; this group of professional mix engineers are working hard to keep immersive audio growing while also encouraging the next generation.
