Mixing from 6B to 12B

How to mix this transition

Bring in the 12B track on a phrase boundary—ideally at the start of a new 8 or 16-bar section in the outgoing 6B track, not mid-phrase. Use a sharp EQ kill on the 6B bass and mids 4–8 bars before the swap to strip harmonic weight, then introduce 12B's kick and low-end cleanly; a 2–4 bar blend is typical, but you can go faster (1 bar) for maximum shock value. Watch the pitch relationship: E Major sits a tritone away, so melodic elements will clash harshly if both tracks play simultaneously—isolate the bass and kick swap, and let the new track's melody dominate quickly. Common pitfall: holding the 6B track's harmonic content (pad, synth, vocal) too long into the 12B entrance; the dissonance will sound broken, not dramatic.
