Knockout (Mix&Master)
#1
Hello,

I would love some feedback on this mix and master I did !
Done with headphones, hope it sounds good.

I'm open to criticism so go ahead Smile

***EDIT***

I think I've stepped up my game since last I tried mixing this song.
I gave it another go last weekend and I do feel I'm in the right direction here Smile

Please give it a listen and feel free to comment.

Hi Adamas59!
First of all, it's clear you spent a lot of time on this mix! Good job.
In my opinion voices are all very loud and "in the face", but all the music is down below them, except for the piano, and to me is a pretty shame 'cause I like very much all the arrangement and I prefer to hear all the contents they made, and preserve the dynamics.
What kind of plugins did you use for mastering ?

Hi Michele,

Thanks for your comment !
Truth is I don't know what the fuck I'm doing with this track !!
I've picked it up in 2015 I believe, mixed it, moved on, mixed other tracks in other genres to a certain degree of success, came back to this track, mixed it again and again, moved on, etc...
I can't seem to figure out the key to mixing this particular track. Not to a point where I'm satisfied anyway !
What bothers me most is that I like this track, I am a hip-hop producer myself and I just don't get why it won't work ! But to be honest I haven't heard any mix that I thought did it justice.
Still working on a new mix but I feel I am close to giving up !

As for mastering, this not mastered in any way !
I just like to slap a limiter at the end of my mix before I bounce...

Thanks again for the comment Smile

Man, you made me laugh to tears, but I get you completely!

I've made two mixes of this track and I'm a Rock guy actually, and I think it's very hard to find the balance between the different sections, 3 different voices, different moods..

Take a listen to my mix if you'd like (Knockout new issue), so maybe we can share some tips to nail this mess!

A good day

I believe this was my final attempt of all times at mixing this motherfucker !

I also believe this is the best mix I did for this song.

Done for good =)
