Can i get some feedback on my mix? - Hxc-mixer - 23-01-2015 Hey guys, I've been practicing my mixing techniques on "Daisy Daisy" for a few days now. It's actually one of the assignments i have for school. I did a lot of automation on this song, and i really tried to get the drums to sound punchy but i never achieved it :\ (I did parallel compression and compressed the original tracks too) let me know what you think RE: Can i get some feedback on my mix? - Mixmasterwannabe - 25-01-2015 Hi Hxc-mixer. Welcome! Just my personal thoughts: - Too much reverb on guitar - Guitar fade in works well i the into, but elsewhere is anti climactic. - the delayed guitar after the first verse is too intense. - The drums do sound punchy. I like them. - Love the bass too. - I would have the second vocal track sit lower For a punk song like this, I believe less is more. I would love to hear you do a dryer version of this song: Less reverb and no delay. Overall, I think you did a great job though. Thank you for sharing. I look forward to hearing more of your mixes.

Hey Mixmaster, i took your advice on the guitar reverb + delay and vocals. I also compressed the guitars and added a flanger to the solo guitar. Did a small master compression too. I would definitely try to do a dryer version as soon as i hand in my mix to school. Anyway here's the recent fix, let me know what you think : RE: Can i get some feedback on my mix? - Mixmasterwannabe - 01-02-2015 Hi Hxc-mixer; I just had listen to your new mix. Love the flanged guitar solo. However, the master compressor is pumping away at the mix. I think this happens with the kick and bass guitar. |
