RE: Hannes Keseberg - You Know Better -Updated - Cwidener7 - 12-01-2019 Hey I like the feedback on your mixes....I could actually get pointers from others and apply them to your mix. My only gripe would be that you should leave the original mix and post a second attachment with the updated mix. That was I could pick up on the progress from start to finish. Thanks! RE: Hannes Keseberg - You Know Better -Updated - Spandexcore - 12-01-2019 Hey, great work in general, i think that the bvs are a touch too loud as well as the whistles at the end. cheers RE: Hannes Keseberg - You Know Better -Updated - Mixinthecloud - 12-01-2019 (12-01-2019, 05:02 AM)Cwidener7 Wrote: Hey I like the feedback on your mixes....I could actually get pointers from others and apply them to your mix.

If you have ever looked at some of my other posts, I have always left a trail of my progress with various iterations of my mixes. For some reason, I did not do that on this mix (there were only two versions). I too have asked others to leave the trail so a mix's progress can be heard.

The whistles are the top of the volume climax of the mix (just worked out that way). That was my thinking on the levels. Thanks for the listen and your input.

Bass guitar was also clear, even on small speakers, that means bass guitar mid-range is also processed as it should be. I had a great time listening to it. Thanks!

I hope there is something in my style and approach you can take away with you. In general I try not to do too much "correction" in a mix and tend to trust the artists and musicians and engineers who produced it to have determined what they recorded is what they are happy with. That is not to say I am not cognizant of phase issues and have aligned things in this mix. If I feel something is destroying the groove I will address it. However, I did not find anything in this that met that criteria. I also try to determine what the song is about. Too often I hear approaches to this type of content that would best be applicable on a metal or hard rock song. To me that is inappropriate. It is not necessarily wrong. My philosophy is listen first. My age and experience have a lot to do with my approach. Thanks for your review and effort. RE: Hannes Keseberg - You Know Better -Updated - Rob Sidhe - 12-01-2019 Very nice vocals! At the end of the contest I need to know your vocal track chain RE: Hannes Keseberg - You Know Better -Updated - Mixinthecloud - 12-01-2019 (12-01-2019, 05:01 PM)Rob Sidhe Wrote: Very nice vocals! At the end of the contest I need to know your vocal track chain No secrets here. Vocal chain is very simple. Cytomic "The Glue" compressor at a 4:1 ratio, .3 msec attack and .1 sec release, full wet followed by a Waves API 550B EQ. Vocal buss has a Voxengo stereo phase coherent graphic EQ for tone shaping (not M/S) followed by a stock PreSonus compressor set for de-essing. The vocal bus then sends to the stock PreSonus Room Reverb with a 50-50 mix of reverb and room reflections. There is a 15.4 ms pre-delay with a reverb time of 1.61 secs in a medium hall. This is followed by a stock PreSonus Pro EQ for tone shaping of the reverb. That's the jist of it. Some details have been left out to protect the innocent! Note: Cytomic's "The Glue" compressor plugin is probably the best plugin purchase I have ever made and the pointer came from Mike Senior of Cambridge.

At the end of the contest I need to know your vocal track chain Thank you man! For me the vocal track is the hardest to make sound good in this song, there's a lot of energy in the lows (maybe proximity effect) and a lot of sibilance too, but I really like the performance and the timbre of his voice, so I'm not at all happy with my result! "The Glue" is the first plugin I buyed... after using only stock Reaper plugins in the beginning and from the moment I discovered the wonderfull world of beautiful and expensive plugins! RE: Hannes Keseberg - You Know Better -Updated - 3ee - 13-01-2019 very nice mix! Sounds "easy", pleasant to the ear... nice reverb sound too, what did you use for reverb/ambiance? ... cons: Bass seems a tiny bit too "radiant" meaning, a bit too upfront or the very low freqs are more upfront. The whistle part at the end there is too loud IMO. Still a good mix though! |
