Good song, and of course I want to do my best.
Thanks to Bandet for giving us hobby mixers an opportunity to learn the magic of mixing.
My thinking about this mix is a bit 70s.
Thank you
Hey Patschulle,
This is a great mix! I love the slight slap back and reverb on the vocals! I find the attack on the kick drum a bit too snappy and the bass a bit muddy. Except this, I think you did a great job!
Quick listen to the Mastered version. It feels pretty good. My biggest issue is the kick sample. It's way out in front and doesn't feel appropriate for the style of song. It's pretty distracting. That said, listening beyond it feels pretty good.
The guitar between the 1st and 2nd verse feels pretty weird as well. I'm not sure what's going on there or why.
I'm missing the back ground vocals.
Overall it feels really good. There are some odd choices you made that I think get in the way. Good job.
Hi Roy.
First, many thanks for the input.
The thing I learned from this mix is to never mix when you've had too many beers because then you make weird choices.
I managed to delete some files and couldn't understand how all the other mixes managed to cut and paste the solo guitar so well.
I don't have a Sample on kick, but on the other hand, I have used SD3 on the Snare to try to get some room, but even there I didn't succeed.
After yours and Antoine's input, I chose to start over from the beginning and mix the whole song sober and hope it will be a little better with all the mixingfiles this time
So, thank you very much
Hi Antoine.
Thanks for the input.
If you read what I replied Roy you have your answer
I think your mix is over eq'd and over processed in some things.
Kick is very clicky and tiny. There is some fret buzz in right guitar that are enhancing some harsh frequencies. The vocal is very midscooped. I think if you were to play this mix in a small speaker or in a cheap car stereo it wouldn't hold sonically speaking.
I like the solo edits you got here they are pretty cool. The bass Eq is very ear pleasing actually I just wanted a bit more from it.
Is not a bad mix because the balances are actually pretty solid. Just the Eq, compression, and fx choise is a miss for me.
