Automix in Post

[Mike Southworth]

Hey everyone! I know this will probably be contentious so I will start by saying that in a perfect world post production shouldn't be using 'automix' BUT is there a similar plugin or system to how the Sound Devices Automix or Dugan Automix works for post production? Sometimes I get a bunch of ISOs and I need to get out a clean mix quickly. There's not the time for going through and automating all the ISOs. Recently, I've been running tracks through my 633 in realtime and recording back in the Automix. But since this is a digital process it has to exist in some plugin form. I know Waves has it but only for live production desks as far as I can see. I've tried using sidechains and gates but haven't found anything as good as the SD automixes. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Dugan automix is also available as a hardware unit. You could run outputs from tracks into the Dugan unit and record the output, kinda like using the 633, but as a more permanent, mains-powered solution.

Isn't that a plugin for live-mixers supported by waves? So not for a DAW

And(!) already mentioned in the original post (which I should have read more carefully) - sorry everyone.

Ask Dan.  He'll probably be @ NAMM in person.
