    I'm not an editor really, but I've given my shot at mixing music. I tried using the FYC and OST to make a chronological edit for The Force Awakens, but I wanted to do it without having tonnes of small cues, so I did a lot of blending. It's a a lot of fun, and I admire people who do that professionally. It's not easy, I know.

     

     

    it may not be easy, but it sure is fun. I also love putting in unused cues. My personal favorite was hearing the original "Trapped on D Deck" in context. I can see why they did all that tracking.

    It's fun to talk about! It's always interesting for me on projects, because I come from an editing background as well, so on one hand I totally get some of the things that end up happening. On the other...MYYY MUUUUSIC!!!!

     

    Yeah, same here. My dad is an editor and I inherited a lot of his editing talent. That's why I do those projects where I mute the dialogue and just have the music. I can study the music and get practice editing. And let's not forget the fun.

    Do composers generally approve/know about tracking?

     

    I'd imagine so. The first half and very end of "A Tug on the Line" in Jaws is a combination of several chords separated by about 5 seconds of silence. It looks to me as though it was written so that the editors could place those chords wherever they fit in the scene. Correct me if I'm wrong, I am far from an expert on the subject and it very well may have been intended to play exactly as it does.

     

    Also, I compose music for trailers and in that business tracking is what you want because the more places your music can go the more you get paid and the more you can put on your resumé.
