Collaborating With Others in Atmos
Im mixing a music award show in Atmos soon that will involve other music mixers independently doing their own atmos music mixes and sending me the files to incorporate into the rest of the show. In the past, I’d always just ask for 5.1 stems - but since this year we’re in atmos, I wondered if anyone else has been in a similar position on collaborating with other mixers in atmos.
I could ask for 7.1.2 bed splits to make it easy on myself, but I also want to give them the freedom to do their own automation - or work in objects who’s automation I’d retain by importing into my own session - yet I can see there being a huge hassle of importing their sessions/input assigments/track count/plugins/etc…. So Im tempted to just ask for stems which I can either assign to objects (to keep scale) or beds (for ease of bussing).
This is a fast turnaround job…but would love to hear some of your thoughts and best practice reco’s.
