How to Get a Radio‑Ready Mix with an AI Assistant in Your DAW

Use this repeatable framework to hit commercial loudness, impact, and translation across systems—without losing your creative edge.

Checklist

  1. Reference selection and target loudness (LUFS‑I).
  2. Gain staging and bus setup. Ask MixingGPT for starting points.
  3. Source repair: clicks, noise, sibilance, resonances.
  4. Balance and panning pass; commit automation early.
  5. Genre‑appropriate compression and saturation on groups.
  6. Mix bus finishing: glue, tonal balance, and headroom.
  7. Translation checks: earbuds, mono, car, and low‑level listening.
