==Definitions== |
|||
A '''recording''' is defined as a unique '''mix''', where a '''mix''' is the result of '''editing''' and '''mixing''' one or more '''stems'''. |
|||
A '''stem''' is one or more raw audio tracks, typically captured from a studio performance, but possibly created from other audio sources. See [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem_%28music%29#Production the Wikipedia article] for more information. |
|||
For the purposes of MusicBrainz, '''mixing''' is defined as changing the volume of a particular stem relative to other stems. It also covers things such as volume fading, or muting a track completely. |
|||
'''Editing''' of stems generally takes place before mixing, and is more to do with changing the positioning and duration of each stem. Moving a drum solo from the end of one chorus to the end of the next is an example of editing. Shifting background vocals along a few seconds so that they start at a different point in the song is another example. |
