Immaculate (but just a little dirty) - Mixinthecloud - 04-02-2016

This is another grand execution by the folks at Telefunken.

With lots of mic options to chose from, this one was surprisingly easy to vet. I didn't try to do anything unusual with this mix as it laid itself out very nicely. I did struggle with the drums until I was able to gate all of the individual drum mics to corral leakage and ring which was poisoning the low end. The vocals on this song set the environment into which I placed everything. All I did for that was insert a room on the master buss and played with it until I found what I liked for the voices and everything else fell into place (at least for me).

It is here for your enjoyment and review. As always the comments of the esteemed community are valued and I look forward to your input.

(Hint: Turn it up just a tad)


Immaculate (a little dirtier) - Mixinthecloud - 06-02-2016

I did a little re-mix here with added volume automation and automated guitar effects plus a full remastering. The first go wasn't bad but I wanted a bit more punch when in the refrains.

Here is a very different approach to mastering of this. Let me know what you think, please.

This one hits the mark. Good job. Love the punch on the drum and bass together!

Another approach to the mix and mastering of this song.
Streamlined guitar and piano parts and automation of levels and effects on the acoustics for better definition between sections of the song. The bass was also attacked differently with heavy bandpass filtering top and bottom.
