The soundtrack that lets the kids shine
School, club, after-school, charity: stitch the kids' routines into one soundtrack, with no dead air and no manipulation during the performance.
Quick overview
The year-end show is a big moment for the children, their parents and the staff. But for the booth, juggling 15 different songs across 15 routines quickly turns stressful. Mixly lets you build a single soundtrack: the booth presses play once, and the show flows. Perfect for preschool and primary school, clubs, after-school centers, sports associations or charity shows.

Why Mixly
One file to launch
No more juggling between 15 songs. The booth clicks play once, the show unfolds.
Timed routines
Trim each track to fit the planned time per routine (typically 2-4 minutes).
Kid-friendly volume
Normalization avoids loud spikes that would startle young kids on stage.
No install
Everything runs in the browser. No software or special hardware required at the school.
How to do it, step by step
- Step 1
List the routines
Get the list of routines from teachers: music, duration, order in the program.
- Step 2
Upload in order
Drop each song in the right order. Rename if needed (01_Preschool, 02_Year2_Dance…).
- Step 3
Trim long songs
Many tracks run 3-4 minutes while routines run 2 minutes. Trim to keep the main chorus.
- Step 4
Export for the booth
Download the final MP3 and hand it to whoever runs sound during the show.
Pro tips
Plan applause time
Add 5-10 seconds of silence between routines to allow applause and stage changes.
Test the volume on site
School halls don't have great acoustics. Test the day before with the actual PA system.
Save on two media
The exported file on a USB drive plus a phone, just in case.
Hand the order to the booth
Print the running order so whoever is running sound can follow the show.
Frequently asked questions
How many routines in a school show?
Between 8 and 20 depending on the school's size. Allow 2-3 minutes per routine with short transitions.
Can I use Disney or popular kids' songs?
Technically yes (Mixly imports any MP3). Verify the rights with your institution (most countries cover school events under public-performance licensing).
Can teachers use it themselves?
Yes, the interface is simple enough for a teacher or volunteer parent to pick it up in minutes.
Do I need an account?
You can try without an account. An account is required only at export time to keep your projects.
