Timo and the Timezone - Just Don't Talk - juanjose1967 - 16-10-2016

Here's my point of view on this song. Any comments and advice to improve the mix will be highly appreciated!

Beautiful sounding solid mix Juan ,sounds great on my monitors ,one very minor thing is the bright guitar at around 2.10 is jumping out a touch.
I have to start again you have done lot better sounding mix than I ended up with Blush

Well Done Big Grin

I'm glad you liked it, Don! yes, you were right. I had that guitar part automated but not in the right way.

Now I think it's been fixed!

Thank you!! Wink

The guitar sits better now Big Grin

Sounds great to me. You concept works much better than my experimental version.

I think I’m hearing a bit of ”too small room”-sound in vox. Short 80ms darkish tape-echo might fix that. It should not be heard as a echo, only felt as a thickening effect.

As this song has a strong country bass, it’s natural that it goes to the lowest area 40-80, but then it might work better if the kick stayed more around 80-160 area.


Guitar around 1:10 sound weird, or at least it doesn’t have a ”country” sound.

Hi, Olli! thank you for your comments! I added a guitar amp to the DI track in order to make it sound warmer but I didn't think about a country sound at that time. Now I think I've fixed that.

The small room you were listening was a small-room plate on it, but now I've made it bigger.

About the bass and kick, I've tried to make them dominate in different areas now.

I hope it's now better Smile
