1. A method of preparing pyrotechnic compositions comprising:
selecting a first pre-mixed composition ingredients comprising at least one fuel and a binder curing agent;
selecting a second pre-mixed composition ingredients comprising at least one oxidizer and a binder resin;
preparing a first pre-mixed composition by mixing the first pre-mixed composition ingredients at a first predetermined mixing setting using resonant acoustic mixing with a resonant acoustic mixer (RAM);
preparing a second pre-mixed composition by mixing the second pre-mixed composition ingredients at a second predetermined mixing setting using resonant acoustic mixing with the RAM; and
preparing pyrotechnic compositions by mixing the first and the second pre-mixed compositions at a third predetermined mixing setting;
wherein the first pre-mixed composition and the second pre-mixed composition each comprise a non-explosive, partially processed multi-part binder based pyrotechnic that is storable and has a longer storage shelf-life than a shelf-life of the prepared pyrotechnic compositions formed by mixing the first and the second pre-mixed compositions.
