HOPE AND SEA

[sagalegin]

Hi,

I'm still fairly new here, but I might just start the conversation, because I'm working on that one as well at the moment. I haven't posted much yet, and I'm no authority when it comes to mixing. But maybe it helps.

I actually really like your sax sound. I was struggling a bit to get it to sound right.

Your main vocals sound pretty neat as well. They might just need a little bit more depth in sense of reverb and/or delay. They feel a little "decoupled" from the rest. Also there is this plosive right in the beginning of the song, that you should look after.

Now my criticism... I find, that there is too much low-end overall. I was listening on my system with a sub and I just wasn't getting a tight response. I know it's a live recording and there is a lot of ambience. But a good amount of high-passing on anything but the kick might bring a lot of clarity to the mix. Even the bass can take it up to like 60Hz imho (as far as I was going with it in my attempt). Especially the toms seem to be a little muddy when they hit.

Hope that helps.
As I said, I'm no authority. But I'm going to upload my version just now. Maybe we can have a discussion.

Cheers, Stefan
