KlangBild-mix of Spektakulatius's 'What Child Is This' - klangbild - 11-11-2014 Hi all, here is my mix of Spektakulatius's 'What Child Is This'. Please comment this! Have a nice Christmas ;-) Best wishes, Martin www.justmixing.de RE: KlangBild-mix of Spektakulatius's 'What Child Is This' - azwayne - 22-12-2014 Lots of reverb up front. Nice touch. I experimented with getting that piano to sounds distant as well but couldn't make it work out for me. (Couldn't get around the buildup at ~2k acceptably.) You have the vocal coming in a little strongly compared to the rest of the tune. I've set my volume by that and then had to turn it down when the singer came in. I find that this vocal, after setting a few pre-amp automation tweaks, responsd pretty well to a compressor. Slow attack, slow release and shooting for 2-3dB gain reduction in the general case but using that to gain a handle on the power sections. Nice clean mix, you've got though. All the EQ and so on seems good to me. Just dynamics that stand out. RE: KlangBild-mix of Spektakulatius's 'What Child Is This' - Obelix - 22-12-2014 Too much reverb on instruments, you could have better put a lot of reverb on backing vocals (so it will sound like they are singing in church), too much bottom end on sides. Good piano sound. You could put a bit of delay on main vocal (so it does not sound dry, and is separated from backing vocals). All in all, good mix. RE: KlangBild-mix of Spektakulatius's 'What Child Is This' - corykeys - 25-12-2014 Great mix! I like the presence of the guitar in the intro. Nice balance through out. I think reverb is a matter of taste and I find myself always backing off a bit. Was just thinking that low mids (200-300hz) could have had a little attenuation i think, especially when the song gets busy. But that's just a taste thing, but you can try and see if you like it! I had to be careful in my mix, because the noise hiss from the guitar track was bothering me a lot. So I used side-chain compression with a low pass at about 2khz. I like that the lead vocal stands out front and not swamped in reverb. Again a taste thing… Great job though, I think this is one of the best mixes I've heard so far! |
