Some minor tweaks I might try is roiling off a very slight amount of low end from the bass and adding some distortion to the bass in the upper mid area. Nice work. Hi there , although I agree about the suggested HP filter, I do not understand your advise on "adding some distortion to the bass". The amp part of the bass guitar recording has already way to much drive/distortion to my taste!?

Some minor tweaks I might try is roiling off a very slight amount of low end from the bass and adding some distortion to the bass in the upper mid area. Nice work. Thanks for your comments. There was a preponderance of low end in Pass 5 due to a change I made to my subs. I adjusted and made some other tweaks as well in Pass 6. Your suggestion for added distortion on the bass is a valid one and one I tried in various forms ending up with some tube drive to give the added bite I was seeking. I'd like to hear your idea on it. Are you going to post on this one? MITC RE: Ja Make Ya Dance - Pass 5 - Mixinthecloud - 13-11-2017 (13-11-2017, 08:14 AM)sgwork Wrote:(13-11-2017, 06:30 AM)Rook Wrote: Really nice mix.

Nice work. I agree too on the low end which has been addressed in Pass 6. Take a listen. Adding some character to the bass with distortion is something I looked into and decided on some tube drive to reach the texture I was looking for. I mixed in the distorted bass line as well to add some grit.

I enjoyed listening! RE: Ja Make Ya Dance - Pass 6 - Mixinthecloud - 13-11-2017 Thanks so much. I worked very hard on the bass and the environment RE: Ja Make Ya Dance - Pass 5 - Rook - 14-11-2017 If there is a better mix to be had, I'm not sure how to get there.... Bass sounds great now. I intend to give this one a shot if time permits....very hectic week ahead. Congrats on a great mix. (13-11-2017, 02:16 PM)Mixinthecloud Wrote:(13-11-2017, 06:30 AM)Rook Wrote: Really nice mix.

When I did listen shortly afterwards, I thought there was something wrong with my monitors.....haha....then I realized "there's the bass distortion"! Definitely too much on the individual track, but mixinthecloud nailed the bass treatment in pass 6 IMO. Best (13-11-2017, 08:14 AM)sgwork Wrote:(13-11-2017, 06:30 AM)Rook Wrote: Really nice mix.

Thanks for the kind comments. I look forward to hearing your take. RE: Ja Make Ya Dance - Pass 6b "Final Polish" - javierpg84 - 15-11-2017 I love the edits on the flute parts! I always like to get surprised. Awesome the delay effect on the sax . Steady balance and nothing jumps out in a negative way. Solid bass and nice ideas bringing details that are lost or hidden inside the tracks. Cheers!!!

Thanks so much. I tried to wring every last ounce of tone and character I knew how to out of my mix. It is rewarding to know that it came across well. It was fun automating the moves in this. Again, thanks for the comments. |
