CustomMix® Information

A CustomMix is a downloadable stereo audio file that can be used anywhere that can play stereo audio files; including DAWS, Audio Players like Apple Music and Windows Media Player, and even our Playback app! CustomMixes can be downloaded into the free Playback app to use with any other tracks you own!

CustomMixes are a great way to get a little further customization beyond an accompaniment track. With a CustomMix, you can select any of the 12 keys for the tracks, and then you can turn down or mute certain instruments in the song to build your own custom stereo audio file. When more flexibility is needed, we'd recommend looking into the AppTracks or full Multitracks.

Additional Information: With a Cloud Pro subscription, you can download a CustomMix purchase in all 12 keys at no extra cost.
