Episode show notes:
So, it happened. AI mixing is (almost) here.
Maybe you've heard about it. Mark "Spike" Stent, a very successful, amazing mixing engineer released "Spike AI". And it caused wild reactions and very emotional discussions in the pro audio community.
Here's what their website says about Spike AI:
"In a world where AI wants to steal your voice, our mission is to amplify yours like never before.
Spike AI is an ethical AI-driven platform that revolutionizes music mixing by providing every artist access to high-quality, professional-grade mixing services typically reserved for platinum-recording artists.
We don’t just harness the power of artificial intelligence; we amplify human creativity. Our mission is to ensure that artists maintain their unique voice in an industry where AI is often seen as a threat to individuality.
Driven by a commitment to ethical AI, we prioritize transparency, inclusivity, and creative empowerment, reshaping the future of music production for the better. With Spike AI, artists are free to focus on what matters most—creating their art."
