As a Free Member you can receive, read, and reply to messages sent to you from Premier members. However, to initiate contact you must upgrade to a Premier membership. When you are logged in as a Premier Member, the member\'s contact button (located below the user\'s audio player) will open a pop-up message window. After completing your message, an e-mail will be sent to the member to notify them they have a new message atBandMix. All members (free and Premier) can read their messages.
You can become a premier by logging into your account and clicking on “Upgrade” in the red bar at the top of the page, or the blue “Upgrade Now!” button in the Dashboard area of your account.
Currently, the pricing for a premier membership is EUR 9.95 / 1 month, EUR 25.95 / 3 months or EUR 69.95 / 1 year.

There are multiple ways to find musicians and bands on BandMix. You can find musicians in your area using the Search and Browse features at the top of the page. You can also receive lists of musicians/bands through our automated Match Mailer emails.
To perform general searches, select the account type you are looking for: Musician, Band or Industry. Choose your category or instrument, then enter your city or zip code in the Search Area box. For more specialized searches, click on ‘Show More Options’ to see a list of filters.
The browse pages are divided by state, then by city. First, select your state, then, in the right side panel, you can use the drop down menu to narrow by category, or choose a city. Click “View All” at the bottom of the Most Popular Cities to bring up a list of all the cities in that state.
In your account area, click on “Music” in the gray navigation menu. There are two methods you can use to upload music.
You can also directly upload audio tracks to your BandMix profile. The built-in player on your page supports mp3, ogg, m4a and wav files, but this varies across different browsers. Although wav, ogg and m4a files are supported by our player, the capability varies between browsers (Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, FireFox, etc.) Mp3 is the most reliable format and will play in all browsers. We recommend converting your files to mp3 files for the best streaming results.
For each file that you upload, you will have the option to allow Streaming and/or Download. Other Formats: We also accept .mpeg, .aif, .wma, .wmv, .rm. However, these files will have to be made available for download or they will not show up on your page.
BandMix only accepts videos from YouTube at this time. To add your video, copy the URL from your YouTube video's page (https://www.youtube.com/___) and paste it into the “Video” page in your account area. Be sure to remove the 's' from 'https://' if one appears, as this is a security feature and will restrict your video from being able to upload. Our system will also not accept URLs that are formatted for a mobile device: 'm.youtube.' instead of 'www.youtube.'
Download or purchase CD ripper software (there are many trial or free programs on the internet) convert your tracks to mp3 or wav files and upload from your hard drive.
In your account area, click on “Photos” in the gray navigation menu. You can drag a file from your computer into the dotted box, or click the red button to select an image from your hard drive. Picture files must be in JPEG format.
The calendar feature allows premier members to add events to their profile.

There is not an option to hide the age displayed on a musician profile. Although this is an option on band profiles, as the members of a band vary in age. Bands can hide the age on their profile by going to “Options” then “Privacy Settings”. We understand the desire to hide your age, however, as an example we have members that are involved in specific-age groups or other situations of similar nature for which it is necessary that members are able to filter search results by age.
