Candlebox 'Happy Pills' (EquilibriumMIX) - Equilibrium - 01-09-2019
I will be glad to hear critical comments and assessments.
V.2 — LFs are filtered out, plus some other changes to compensate for the changes. Does V.2 sound better? It is at your discretion. Leave a comment.

The kick is pretty lost,there is no definition the bottom end. Also sounds like you have used a clipper that works a bit over time in the choruses

I'm listening on earbuds so I can't really comment on the bottom end but I will say I 'feel' the kick and while I thing it could be more defined it works well with the bass. I like the snare.
I do find the pitch/modulation effects on the guitars and vocals pretty distracting and makes it hard to focus on the vocals and lyrics of the song.

As I expected, by solving some problems, I automatically created others. )) V.2 - an attempt to find a compromise: LFs are filtered out, plus some other changes to compensate for the changes. Listen to what happened. Should I make more radical changes?

So VOX should have been made louder?

I think having less of the effect on it would let the vocal be more clear.(02-09-2019, 12:19 AM)RoyMatthews Wrote: I'm listening on earbuds so I can't really comment on the bottom end but I will say I 'feel' the kick and while I thing it could be more defined it works well with the bass.
