Sound Editing For Visual Media Ep11: How to set up and do an SFX Pre-Mix (in REAPER)

Hey folks! This video is all about setting up for a pre-mix, sending it to your mixer and some useful hotkeys for pre-mixing. I will also show you a way of using REAPER's native features to send your edit session to a mixer using Pro Tools or another DAW.
