Promises and Lies - suprovo - 22-05-2016
Hey guys,
Just mixed this. Lemme know if I could do anything to make it sound better!
RE: Promises and Lies - Fru Kitaar - 27-05-2016
Overall a pretty good sound, solid work!
But there a few things I'd do different:
- The Solo Guitar is a bit boxy, and lacks some highs. So cut some low mids, and add some highs/high mids to let it cut through more.
- The vocals sound a bit "boring". I would also add some highs (maybe run an exciter?) and some nice subtle reverb or delay would be nice. Also maybe some subtle 1176 compression, which adds some high mid aggressivenes (preferably Rev. A style plugins, with fastest release)
But I want to end my feedback with sth. good:
I really enjoy your kick sound! It cuts through pretty good, but it isn't ugly and plastic sounding like many metal kicks. Good work!

Thanks! Will definitely fix it!
