When does the tipping point of an object occur?

The tipping point is reached when the weight force acts through the corner of the object. At this point, angles θ and ϕ sum to 90°. θ + ϕ= 90°. The angle θ is the angle of the plane at which the object tips, i.e. θ = 90° − ϕ. The angle ϕ is the angle between the bottom edge and the line joining the corner and the.

Can you mix 10 tracks into one bus?

You could do this track-by-track, or route all the background vocal channels to a bus. In doing so, you mix down all 10 tracks into one stereo channel (let’s name it “BG Vocals”). This bus would, in turn, output to the “Master Bus.” Add your distortion plug-in to the “BG Vocals” bus, and bam.
