The soundtrack that elevates your runway
Time the music to every pass, align tempo with the collection, build your show's sonic identity in minutes.
Quick overview
A fashion show tells a story in music. Tempo follows the model's walk, the transition between two collections must be invisible, the final drop must hit on the star pass. Mixly lets designers, fashion schools, brands and show producers build that soundtrack without going through a studio.

Why Mixly
Tempo on the runway pace
Runway pace is steady. Trim songs to keep a coherent pulse from start to finish.
Invisible transitions
Crossfades avoid cuts that would break the audience's focus on the pieces.
Coherent loudness
Normalization keeps the level even: the audience hears the music without saturating the venue.
PA-ready export
320 kbps MP3 or high-quality WAV, ready for the venue's or showroom's PA system.
How to do it, step by step
- Step 1
Define the mood
List songs that match the collection's identity. Plan one song per 5-10 passes.
- Step 2
Hit the duration
A show often runs 12-20 minutes. Count passes, multiply by 30-45 seconds per pass.
- Step 3
Pick the transitions
Crossfade for a fluid show, hard cut to mark a collection or season change.
- Step 4
Export for the PA
Get the final file, ready for the venue's sound engineer or the show's DJ.
Pro tips
Pick from the collection's soul
A couture collection calls for strings, a streetwear collection calls for electronic. Sonic coherence reinforces the message.
Spot the final drop
The last pass is what sticks: time the musical peak on the arrival of the showpiece.
Avoid loud lyrics
Intelligible lyrics distract from the runway. Prefer instrumentals or foreign-language vocals.
Run a tech check
Test the mix on the venue's PA to verify volume and stereo balance.
Frequently asked questions
How many songs for a 15-minute show?
Between 4 and 8 songs depending on pace. More fragments the show, fewer wears out the audience.
Can I use a recent popular track?
Yes, Mixly imports any MP3/WAV. Check the rights if the show is broadcast online or on TV.
How do I match tempo?
Note each track's BPM. For a fluid show, stay within a ±10 BPM band between two songs.
Does Mixly do spatialization?
No, Mixly outputs standard stereo. Spatialization is handled by the venue's PA.
