"Queen's Light"
#1
I had a good time mixing this tune. It reminds me a bit a Jan Hammer and the Miami Vice TV show, with all the lead synth breaks. The snare track was a little "boxy" and required some drastic EQ to get a snap out of it. My first mix revealed an over abundance of reverb in mastering. Then I saw a bit of resonance about 800Hz that needed to be tamed. This is where the song sits now. Your thoughts?

Hey Dave

Love the combination of tones you used, very nice
Sounds great on the Monitors. Awesome balance.
It does remind me of a Miami Vice vibe!! I think mine came out more like a video game track..lol

Great Job!!

If you have time , could you have a listen to mine?

Thanks Dave

Bass slaps and pops taken into consideration, and now more present, along with a bunch of other EQ corrections done with FabFilter Q2. As I mentioned in Kirk's post Synth 4 now moves in one short section just to add interest.
