The art of mixing or how to make a good song sound good
Hello, here's the noob again!
I made some songs and wanted to have feedback about the mix in my songs. Another guy just did it so I though I'd just in the bandwagon. This is not about self-prom, it's about becoming a better mixer. (compression / EQ primarily) Well I'll give you the link. CHECK THE TOP ONES FIRST PLEASE (ie: Everytime a heart stops), THE MORE YOU GO DOWN THE MORE IT'S OLD (and the more it sucks I hope) http://www.soundclick.com/bands/page...?bandID=265287 Thank you so much for your help. p.s.: The top one is an experiment at electric voice |

The first one had an original indie sound. The 2nd one reminds me of a cross between Talking Heads and Ween. I can't really give any advice on mixing because I don't think I can rely on my monitoring room. The style of music is so unconventional on the second song I think you'd be well served to let some people that are into underground music preview it and give you thoughts on it. I know that doesn't help much. |

I know that doesn't help much. Well at least you took some time to listen to my songs and that's appreciated. I know I can do better... In fact I'm getting better and better with every new song I record! |

Disclaimer is that I'm not familiar with this style of music. Everything sounded distant, I found myself wanting more variety in the depth. Vocal I thought should be more up front, it seemed to lack presence. Watch your tuning. The song didn't really settle into a time "pocket"... Partly because the kick stuck out in the mix (didn't sit well) and because the time seemed a little shaky at points. Dave -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

When you talk about tuning, it's about what? Vocals? Guitar? Also, you think I should lower the bass drum volume right? I'll try that. ( I used compression on the BD and no reverb, so maybe that is what you don't like) Anyway I'm not even sure what song you are talking about, so I'd need more info. I suppose it is "Everytime a heart stops", but you should try "Swiftle" instead. A much more "finished" track imho. |
