Remember December - C U Next Time
#1
One mix more.
Really hard to make it sound in your face and also dynamic. Can't have both so I think my mix falls to that everything louder trap. Probably real mastering engineer could do better job than me with just the master limiter.
Feel free to comment.

Versions
09: first mix
10: reduced low end
11: reduced master limiter
12: lead voc more up front and gtrs a little bit wider

Thank you for you feedback.
I made a new version where kick and bass are a little bit lower and lead voc a little bit up.
Now there is also a master eq with low shelving filter taking a db and a hpf.

I think you are right in your assessment of too much bus compression/limiting. It's causing quite a bit of distortion. You should post a track without so much for comparison.
To mix or not to mix ... mix!

It is true that I had pretty hard settings for a master limiter.
I made a new version with the limiter gain dropped 3 dB. Now it doesn't hit the limiter constantly.

Hi Moonwrist

Your music level sounds great !

I think your mix may need the main and backing vocals volume increased as sound very soft to my ears Big Grin !
