We can assess your project for FREE. Just select "Send for Review - Free" as your product type, before clicking "Send to Engineer."

Answer:
Yes, they do.
Answer:
For GarageBand users we offer all the instruments available from Apple via their JamPack expansion kits. All other MIDI sounds are Roland Fantom X sounds.
It is recommended that users who have MIDI in their projects bounce their sounds to disk. Otherwise, the mix will be rendered with one of Roland's excellent studio sounds.
Answer:
It is highly recommended that you bounce your sounds to audio files. Clearly, this will take much longer to upload, but in the end it will likely save time.
That said, we have the standard VST instruments included in Cubase 4: Halion One, Prologue, Spector, Mystic, Embracer, and Monologue - along with various others.
If your project requires a specific instrument, and you don't want to bounce your sound to an audio file, please contact us to verify that we have the appropriate VST instrument.
Answer:
Delete the project that contains the incorrect files. Then start a new project.
Alternatively, you can simply add instructions in your project's description, asking the engineer to ignore the unneeded files.
Answer:
Most sessions will be mixed, mastered, and available for you to download within 5 business days.
Answer:
Only WellMixed.com employees and/or paid consultants will ever hear your music while it is in our possession.
Your files will never be copied to media that is not owned or contracted by WellMixed.com. 10 days after your final mix is rendered, your session files will be deleted from all media owned or contracted by WellMixed.com.
Answer:
We only edit material to enhance notes and rhythms already present in the music. We will correct pitch and timing issues if it seems appropriate, or if instructions to do so are given in the project's description.
If you are interested in composition, arrangement, or remixing services please contact us directly.
Answer:
At this time we do NOT support Reason or ReWire products. Users must bounce audio from these products into a supported format.
Answer:
You WILL be satisfied. Customer service is the top priority of WellMixed.com. Just let us know what you want changed in your mix within 10 days of it being completed.
It is highly recommended that all clients provide WellMixed.com with a working phone number, so that engineers may contact them personally. Revisions will be prioritized as new mixes, and as such will typically be completed within 5 business days.
