You're first. The beta is open, and it's free.
I told you the Board Room gets it before anybody. Here it is. It goes on my socials after you've had it. The MIXSTEIN beta is open to anyone who qualifies. It's free while it's a beta. And you don't need a call with me to get it running. There's an install page with a video I recorded on a clean Mac, start to finish. About ten minutes. Who qualifies right now: Ableton Live Suite, or Standard with Max for Live, on an Apple Silicon Mac. That's wave one, and you can have it today. Logic, Studio One, Pro Tools, PC, Intel: you're wave two. Lock your spot anyway and you hear first. Nothing to pay either way. What you're stepping into: put it on the mix bus and it reads the whole session. Not the words you typed. The session. It names what's fighting, with the numbers, tells you why, and makes the move in Ableton's own devices on your track. Then it goes after the vocal the way my hand does. 37 cuts on one take, and it found 16 of my 18 within milliseconds. On price: I'm a new company and this isn't a premier product yet, so I'm not charging like one. Founding members lock a spot now and keep that price for life. Nothing is charged while it's a beta. The number's on the site. If you locked earlier, you got the new one. How you get it: go to mixstein.com and lock your tier. Your download link comes with it. It's yours and it works three times, so a bad download or a second Mac is covered. Each beta build runs 30 days, then you grab the next one. Still free. Install questions go in the pinned thread so every answer helps the next person. No date on the real release. Undeniable, not early. What's the first fight you think it'll find in your mix? — DSG

MIXSTEIN install help. Ask here.
Installing the beta? This is the one place for install questions. Post what you see on screen, word for word, plus your Mac (M1, M2, M3 or M4) and your Live version. I answer here in public so the next person doesn't have to ask. Start with the install page and the video: mixstein.com/install Three things that fix most installs: 1. Quit Live before you run the installer. 2. In Terminal it's the word bash, one space, then drag the file in. Hit Return once, at the end. 3. AbletonMCP not in the Control Surface list? Your User Library lives somewhere else. The fix is on the install page. — DSG

Two seats left. Here's exactly who they're for.
Ableton Live Suite, on an Apple Silicon Mac, and you mix for real. That's wave one. If that's not your setup, you're wave two, I'll come get you when it's real, and nothing to pay either way. What the build learned this week, so you know what you're stepping into: I cut 37 pops and esses by hand on one vocal. It found 16 of my 18 within milliseconds, and it now pulls each one to the level of the words around it, the way my hand does. That's the bar. It has to match my hand before it ever touches yours. The two seats: you get it running on your machine on a call with me, dialed to your music. Founding price locks for life, $29 / $59 / $149 a month. Nothing paid until it's delivered and running. To raise your hand, comment three things: your DAW, what About This Mac says (M1 / M2 / M3 / M4 or Intel), and Suite or Standard with Max. That's it. I DM the ones that fit. No date. Undeniable, not early. And tell me the one thing in your mix you'd hand it first. — DSG

I'm picking four of you. Closed beta.
Here's how it works. Tonight I found two bugs I'd never want a founder to hit. One: MIXSTEIN forgot the fights it had already found the second the engine restarted. Two: it was quoting a distortion number on a full mix that only means something on a single tone. Both fixed tonight, and the build is rebuilt. That's the bar. It survives a restart on your machine before it ever gets to you. So here's the move. Four people, hands-on with me. You get it running on your machine on a call with me, dialed to your music. Your founding price locks for life: Essentials $29, Pro $59, Studio $149 a month. Founders keep getting feels and updates the rest of the room never sees. Who I'm picking: you mix for real, in Ableton Live Suite, on an Apple Silicon Mac. That's wave one. Logic, Studio One, PC: you're wave two, and I'll tell you when that's real, not before. How: comment FOUNDER or DM me. Already DM'd me? You're in the pool, no need to do it twice. I pick the four this week and message each of you directly. Nothing to pay to raise your hand. No date on delivery, same as always. Undeniable, not early. First thing you'd put it on: the mix bus, the vocal, or the low end? — DSG
