Creative Stereo Mixing
I enjoy strategically placing instruments in stereo mixes where I feel they'll do best!!
I enjoy hearing competing stereo, like two guitars L & R stereo channels. Drums don't make a good stereo feature, except with panning!! Some people are creative with stereo mixes, panning etc., but most shy away from it, it creates more work!! Listing to Johnny Nash - Hold Me Tight, backing vocals shift L & R channels, nice well thought/composed stereo, too!! Anyway, feel free to grade my stereo mix, you'll hear where everything is at, neat type of intro!!!... The Doors, Love Me Two Times, 1967. http://www.angelfire.com/empire/abps...veme2times.mp3 Jack |

The Doors, Love Me Two Times, 1967. http://www.angelfire.com/empire/abps...veme2times.mp3 Jack Another Subject: Okay, many or most everyone claims there were two specific jobs dealing with audio at Big Boy record companies. One would "mix" and another would "master". But, as you know, everyone under the sun seemed to have problems with "remastering" (sometimes up to 3 remasters), originally a "mastering" job. For example, Amazon shows the song "Jump" by Van Halen was just 2015 Remastered (again). Same with some of Alan Parson's material. I TRY to logically think what went on, okay? IF I had someone "mixing" that created a lot of audio (mastering) work downstream, he wouldn't last long working for me! Besides, it would degrade audio quality with additional sound reprocessing. That's why I do not believe people who did mastering had to "fix" much audio, maybe tweak here and there, or maybe just arrange songs, period. I firmly believe remastering, maybe by SPARS definition, was meant to include remixing. That is, create a new master tape. Thoughts? Thanks. Jack |

Hearing one guitar panned hard right and a totally different guitar panned
hard left is, in this instance, really irritating. You end up listening to the crap production rather than the band, who actually made the music quite well. More irritating is the fact that someone (You) has panned all the other stuff Willy Nilly just for the sake of it. I think you're having a laugh, this sounds crap and you know it. Gareth.

Gareth, I learned outside of usenet is where I received the applause. To me, it sounds like Surround Sound!! Wasn't my favorite song, not sure how original was mixed, but it made it only to #22 Billboard. I do thank you for your opinion, good or bad. I want to download [Van Halen's] "Jump" (2015) Remaster from Amazon and compare it to my mix!! Note to Mike: Engineers on YouTube don't teach me much, but one hit an Award status when he mentioned getting your mix as close as possible before further audio processing! I sometimes don't have enough vocals or bass and remixing everything is a chore/pain. So, I thought, why not take the stereo .flac file I created, bring it into mixing software along with bass line [audio track] and all to it.. Syncing is perfect. It was NICE!! Digital rules, in my mind! Jack Thanks. Jack Gareth. "JackA" wrote in message ... I enjoy strategically placing instruments in stereo mixes where I feel they'll do best!!

It was I who was asked to send a HQ version of one of my (re)mixed hit songs to a HD Radio station? I know people here think mixing is only for the pros, but I plan to end that fallacy. Unlike the costly My Pillow (list $99+ YIKES!), my mixing is free. As Denis would say in another usenet group, Made In America baby!! Jack Jack Gareth. "JackA" wrote in message ...

I always have done, it was one of those tracks that formed my present being. I merely presented it here to demonstrate 70's panning, given the subject of this thread. It is rather good though, even though this is now 2015. You would not get away with this kind of stuff today. Gareth. |

My guess, the (Hocus Pocus) single version got some momentum on the record charts, but nothing of US Top 40 quality. The album version gained a LOT of interest.

Whoever claimed my Van Halen "Jump" version was loud, it is tame compared to the actual (2015 Remaster) $1.29 stereo mix. They used a lot of echo tracks for a bolder, denser sound, while I tried to maximize stereo content. Jack |

Jack, we are not agreeing. I like the Hocus Pocus studio track a lot. Like you, you probably remember it while it peaked on the record charts. I had the album. Back in those days (in the UK) the kind of music I liked never made it into the charts. The only radio that played that kind of stuff was the pirate station Radio Caroline. There was a "Friday Rock Show" on radio 1 that played some album tracks, but that was about it really. So we all used to go round each others' houses, get stoned, and listen to album after album after album. Often you would take some of your own albums round. So everyone got to hear all sorts of stuff that simply was not available to hear anywhere else. Then you would go to "Downtown Discount" in Basildon and sometimes find the album you had listened to round your mates' house on a cheap import and buy it. Sometimes the import packaging was a little different to the official UK version, but they were usually a few quid cheaper. I think Richard Branson started Virgin Records by driving his van across the Channel and buying loads of these cheap imports, then flogged them to hippies in a small record shop on Tottenham Court Road.

Jack Once I'd heard this live album I just could not listen to any of their studio albums without thinking "this is lifeless ****". A very fine album indeed IMHO. Plus a lovely gatefold sleeve to add to the ceremony of playing sides of 33.3rpm vinyl. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEwVz6P7lZg Gareth. |

Listing to Johnny Nash - Hold Me Tight, backing vocals shift L & R channels, nice well thought/composed stereo, too!! Anyway, feel free to grade my stereo mix, you'll hear where everything is at, neat type of intro!!!... The Doors, Love Me Two Times, 1967. http://www.angelfire.com/empire/abps...veme2times.mp3 Jack Jack, there seems to be a terrible hum at the beginning of this track. Do you think you could remix it out? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEmnqqFO1Gs With my MS tablet and ($12 Jensen)earbuds, I don't hear much of any hum. Will download later where I can better examine and/or repair. Jack Cheers, Gareth. That would be great. Bear in mind though that this is UK hum at 50Hz. If your better earbuds only go down to 60Hz you might have a problem. The package states, 16 - 20,000 Hz! I guess this album is not on CD? You feel it's a "Mains" hum? Not a bad song. As it opened, I'd never guess a Rock looking group. Jack Cheers, Gareth. |

I enjoy strategically placing instruments in stereo mixes where I feel they'll do best!! I enjoy hearing competing stereo, like two guitars L & R stereo channels.

Yes, not a bad song at all - if a little clumsily performed. The album is on CD. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quark,...ness_and_Charm Cheers, Gareth. |

There's also a lot of analogue clipping on the louder passages later on in the track. I suspect the output from the turntable preamp was too hot for the input on the soundcard, or the input gain was turned up too high. There's a better quality mp3, converted from the CD version of the album available on Amazon, though it may not match the "warmth" and distortion of this version. Anyway, a slight 50 Hz and 100 Hz notch should do the job. Thanks for the pointer. I've just bought the Quark, Strangeness and Charm mp3 album it's on for listening to later. I'd forgotten how good it was. -- Tciao for Now! John. |

Sort of reminds me of the group, Nazareth. What I'm asking, you think the hum isn't on CD? Not sure what I was listening to on YouTube (vinyl/CD). Jack Cheers, Gareth. |

Listening to the hum and general distortion on the Youtube file, that's a rip from a vinyl LP. The mix balance isn't quite the same as the MP3 (Which is presumably from the CD version) on the Amazon site, either. -- Tciao for Now! John. |

Proper Scotch is an Islay single malt IMHO. Laphroaig is rather nice. Tastes of Peat and The Sea. Having lived in Glasgow for a few years, I know what really winds Scotch people up. Gareth. |

Much more subtle than the Laphroig, and was my introduction to the single malt. It really is worth paying for the older ones though, the difference is huge. As is the price unfortunately. McGareth. |

I played your (YouTube) tune (as 256k MP3), the one with supposedly 50Hz noise, but I didn't detect any. Sorry. Jack It really is worth paying for the older ones though, the difference is huge.
