Georgia Wonder: 'Siren' - Cefe's Mix - Cefe - 15-02-2014 My attempt at this one. Is it too bassy? I'm still struggling to balance the low end as the room I'm mixing in boost the bass quite a lot! Thank for listening and comments. Regards Cefe RE: Georgia Wonder: 'Siren' - Cefe's Mix - Dags - 18-02-2014 Wonderful approach to the mix, Cefe! I think the slow build at the start really suits the song. Especially in a sparser mix such as this where the vocals are exposed, there needs to be a bit of space put around them - reverb, delay, or a combination of both. At the moment they are very dry when they should 'pop' a little more. Reducing frequencies below 200Hz (and I also put in a dip around 350Hz or so) will also remove some of the muddiness of the vocals. The bass balance in your version is about right (mine sounds really big because I was listening to Jamiroquai before hitting this song). And I like the little rise and fall synth you have added to the song, or did you affect the cymbal wash or synth wash with a resonant filter? Very well done indeed! Dags RE: Georgia Wonder: 'Siren' - Cefe's Mix - Cefe - 18-02-2014 Hey Dags, Thanks listening and for your comments. I agree that the vocals are a bit burried. They do have some delays and reverbs sends and I try and try again but couldn't make it cut the way i wanted so I just left it at my best take. The synth that you mentioned is the Strings track, i put as insert a delay, modulation and reverb to create the fx. Also is sent to some more delays and reverb. Cheers Cefe RE: Georgia Wonder: 'Siren' - Cefe's Mix - Voelund - 19-02-2014 Very creative mix this ! What Dags said and your mix will also benefit from mutin that darn guitar playin major when the rest play minor You certainly have an ear for detail and a creative instinct. That middle part is so obviously cool that I kick myself for not havin thought of that. Great thinkin ! |
