Line Mixing Lab

Add a script

Paste a script below. The first up-to-7 distinct speakers become DCAs (bound to Z, X, C, V, B, N, M in order they appear). Public-domain scripts only.

How to play

Line mixing is what a live A1 does on a musical: open each performer's channel (DCA) only while they speak or sing, so the mix stays clean and feedback-free.

• Every character sits on a DCA bound to a key: Z X C V B N M.
• Each line falls as a bar with a faint lead-in zone below it and a trail zone above it. Open the channel as the lead-in zone reaches the mix line, hold through the line, and close as the trail zone passes.
• Opening early and closing late (covering the whole zone) = Perfect. Just catching the spoken part = Good. Opening the wrong DCA hurts your score.
• You can also click/tap the DCA buttons at the bottom. Space pauses and resumes.
• The current line's words light up as they're spoken — use that to time your opens and closes.
• Advanced hides the falling lanes so you mix from the script alone. Pace sets how fast the dialogue runs.
• Practice runs one random scene with no pressure. Quiz runs 5 minutes from a random spot, scored like Guitar Hero — finish for a certificate.
