Roar - Retchid Gretchin - 28-09-2019 Great arrangement and vibe. RE: Roar - Roy - 28-09-2019 Sounds good to me. Tonally, it all works. I think the only thing mixing is an extra little bit of excitement in the vocal. Without getting gimmicky (because this isn't that type of song). But the vocal could be a little more...aggressive? Maybe some saturation or parallel compression. A slap echo could be appropriate. The chorus could feel bigger. It's such a straight driving rhythm that needs to be offset with some more dynamic interest. I like the reverb decay at the end. It just needs to fade out. RE: Roar - Retchid Gretchin - 28-09-2019 Thanks, Roy There is parallel compression on everything I have a parallel for every Group, reverb and delay on Vocals, More saturation than you can shake a stick at + Tube distortion... always have a double vocal panned at R20 at 5db lower withought distortion so makes it more natural (or I put it on the double and crank it). Glad you did not notice - subtle is best unless you want reverb and delay to be heard. The reverb at the end is on the Indian chant Eventide Blackhole Preset "Biggest Reverb Ever@ or something like that. It really does go on forever ... I automated the mix bus volume down but ended up bouncing down without checking (or should I say noticed but said sod it) Not a great lover of sidechained Reverb but did use it on the last upload "Drag me Down" (1st time ever did that) sort of worked.

That said, maybe things could be a little less subtle? Like I said, it's a good mix but just overall could use something more.

Except as a backwards gating thing. But I can see it working on reverb. RE: Roar - Retchid Gretchin - 28-09-2019 understood I did distort the vocal a lot but pulled it back a lot as it did not suit it. Maybe yours will or maybe have the same feeling but who knows until we try. I left a very positive post on TAKKA360 last night and give him 5 stars .... he then posted saying he is leaving and not coming back .... he has since deleted that post dunno was it something I said ... Forums can be funny places. People take offence or think you are taking the mick .....personally always found this place quite pleasant. All the best.

I suspect he has some real world stuff going on. God knows I do. I try to be pleasant and constructive...for the most part. Ha. RE: Roar - Cudjoe - 28-09-2019 Nice mix man,sounds good too me through cans,as for Takka 360 i read his comments earlier and i found it a little uncalled for,i remember him having a go at Mike Senior saying that he dont give feed back and he was going leave,in which i said its all about having fun and learning in the process,then he called me a troll! i think that he is trying too hard and needs too relax.

RE: Roar - LukasL - 30-09-2019 Hey, I like this mix quite a bit. I just think the low-end is a bit bloated (maybe from low-end reverb or something?) and therefore the bass could translate better. The vocals are fine, but maybe could be a bit fuller? Anyway, your mix nailed the tone and vibe of this song. Cheers, Lukas |
