I started out compressing all the things. Then compressed less things. Pushed some faders and this is what came out.

Hey adgreen,
thank you for mixing our song! It's a cool mix. You have managed to get most of the critical things right, but there is also a lot of stuff that you can do better ![]() The Background vocals are too loud throughout the whole song - their quality is just not good enough to be in the spotlight. We only recorded them to give the main vocals more beef, but they shouldn't be used as a "hey, listen to me, I´m interesting"-spotlight for the listener. Rule of thumb: as soon as you can clearly hear them, they are too loud. The hihat needs to come up - Dirk Verbeuren is playing so many interesting variations that I sadly can't hear in your mix. Overall the cymbals are too quiet. Hope that helps - have a great day and keep up the good work ![]() Dirk

Some of the changes I made to V2 based upon your feedback: - Cymbals up. I had pushed the HH low because it sounded like a drum machine to my ears, I added a phaser and some verb to the hats track and was pretty satisfied with turning them up - Swapped a couple guitar tracks to verb instead of compression to add space. - Lowered BGVs - Literally inverted the EQ on the snare to get a little extra punch - Stuck on a master limiter with 2db gain I think the changes make a pretty big difference in the quality of the mix. Thanks again for the feedback. |
