Amber Skye - Howlin_MST - Matt Belmonte - 02-07-2018
Greetings to everybody
I'm Matt Belmonte, from Italy, owner of the Z studio, and this is the first time I post a my mix/master here.
For the mix I've not added any other sound (just an efx reverb/delay to the vocals) and I kept all track levels as the original.
I hope you like it, Matt

Hello there
* at 46 seconds I was waiting for a huge explosion but the mix left me wanting more in that part.
*fxs are very possessive of the mix. Wish you would turn them down a bit and boost kick and bass more. So the mix is a lil more natural.
*vocals are great just the part where all the back vocals are singing I felt a lil build up of high freq. Could be essing from all of them.
*also some low end build up there somewhere. I could be wrong but I would high pass any unnecessary low freq.
Other than that this is great stuff!
Here is the original mix to compare https://youtu.be/NhpImdnb_UI

I did the mix in less than an hour and I did not spent time for fixing individual track levels. I just held the efx subgroup at -10dB, this seemed a good compromise to me.

You're right!! In fact I noticed that during the mastering but it bored me to reopen the mix project

Nope man, you're right. Usually I use DMG Equilibrium plugin for an HP filter with a very high slope at the maximum of resolution for the best impulse response in linear phase to kill subfrequencies. Here did not seem so serius so I choose to not use it. That confirm is better to keep it always on.

Thank you so much
