Secretariat - Borderline - filipandrei - 29-03-2023

Did this a few days back, but forgot to upload itĀ  Cool
Let me know what you think

Cheers


RE: Secretariat - Borderline - Mammy - 29-03-2023

Hi filipandrei.I love your mix so much.You made a great mix but I wanted to remaster your mix .Hope you like it .Tried to make open ,warm,wider sound.


(Applied mid-side adjusments,some saturation effects,linear phase eq adjusments,tonal balance settings and mammy's magical handsĀ  Big Grin )


RE: Secretariat - Borderline - filipandrei - 29-03-2023

Hey Mammy, thanks

Love the saturation you've added, it brings the guitar a bit upfront and more present.
And also love the name of the file Smile

If I was to be a bit "picky" the same saturation kills a bit the snare hits, but in the end, it's a bit more glued

Thanks again!
Cheers

RE: Secretariat - Borderline - Mixologist? - 09-04-2023

Warm, a really smooth enjoyable listen. I would love to know how you got the (first) acoustic guitar to sound so warm and detailed.

This is a great mix, hats off to you!

The performances are so dynamic, I found that the song can easily sound fragmented, you've really brought everything together into a cohesive whole.


RE: Secretariat - Borderline - filipandrei - 09-04-2023

Hey Mixologist,

Thanks a lot for listening and for your kind words, and I'm happy you like it

As for the acoustic guitar, I've opened my mixing session and my process was:
(first of all, I always gain stage my tracks to -18dbVU, so my settings match my gain structure)
- I'm sure that 80% of the sound is actually in the recording phase, so the production gets the most of the credit Smile

- All Acoustic guitars tracks bussed to an AC GTRS BUS
1. LA-3A (Reduction 6.5 / Gain 6.3)
2. Blackbox Analog Design (Saturation 26% / Pentode 70% / Triode 67% / Output 32%)
3. SSL Console 9000J (HP 90Hz / Hi Gain -2.1dB Freq: 5Khz [Shelf] / HMF Freq +3.1Khz Gain:+2.8db / LMF Freq 240Hz Gain: +0.4dB)
I also have a send to a parallel bus using some more saturation (Klanghelm -> and then DBX 160 ) this bus is used to add some transients, and it's blended just a bit with the main bus

Cheers

Oh wow, is this all in the box? I'm still impressed by the solidity of your mix.

If you have a sec would you mind giving my mix a listen, any feedback at all would be appreciated: https://discussion.cambridge-mt.com/showthread.php?tid=46318 Bes as rude as you like!

RE: Secretariat - Borderline - filipandrei - 10-04-2023

Hey Mixologist,

Yeap, all in the BOX... Wink
Alright, sure I'll be glad to listen and give feedback to your mix...so I guess I'll "speak" to you on the other side Smile
