Directions - SpedeMix - Spede - 18-01-2014 Hi! Here's my mix of this nice tune. It's pretty straightforward; not a complete overhaul in sonics (as some of my other mixes have been lately). I spent some 2-3 hours with this one (tweaking the vocals quite a lot to make them sit properly). RE: Directions - SpedeMix - Voelund - 18-01-2014 Sounds great here. Your mix suits the song. RE: Directions - SpedeMix - Olli H - 18-01-2014 What a nice mix! I like intimate feeling and the balance feel nice all the time. The bass fit's just perfectly to this song. Only two moments bothered me a little bit. (And they were a problem to me only because I was listening with headphones.) The moment when sound opens to stereo at 0:33. The sound before and after sounds perfect to me, but the moment of change distracted my focus from the singing. The opening of solo guitar at 01.58 feels to me that as if the there reverb send is in mute mode by accident. But when my ears get used to that sound it felt good. So very good mix to my ears. RE: Directions - SpedeMix - bmullen - 19-01-2014 Very nice! I like your panning choices on this one. RE: Directions - SpedeMix - Dags - 20-01-2014 Another great Spede mix The intimate space you have created really suits this song. You achieved a much more present and natural mix than I could manage on this song with my limited experience of 'small dry space' mixing Did you use an impulse reverb with a really small delay time or something else? It is very effective. Probably the right hand-panned reply guitar in the section at 2:07 could come up about 1dB or so but that's about it! (Could also be my dodgy ear playing up) Nicely done indeed!

Apart from the perc track (which is 50% right) everything is LCR. (20-01-2014, 05:21 AM)Dags Wrote: Another great Spede mix Thanks. Yes the vocals are the only thing here that have some verb in them. When reverberating vocals I usually like to start off with this kind of reverb here: a delay'ed extremely short (less than a sec) plate with some early reflections in front of them. The reverb algorithm in an EMT 250 is probably one of the most famous examples of this kind of reverb (probably why it's so popular on vocals) but you could create a similar kind verb with any algo verb. RE: Directions - SpedeMix - Ricks2006 - 29-01-2014 Great Mix Man That's all I got to say.. Love your panning on the acoustics! -Ricks |
