Awesome! Like the chorus and solo very much! Solo remind me of Luca Turilli, just he usually don`t use wah.

Just like that, removing and not adding. Edit, you'll probably have to boost channel's level afterwards, less trebs or whatever always results in less volume as well. I followed your advice in this sample - and to me it is now more pleasant to the ears...what do you think? (basically I applied it to the whole mix - as the treble came from the mastering software, so that's also where I reduced it) Also overall levels are lower now as you predicted - but they where on the edge of distorting before, so it doesn't hurt. a_loner_master12.mp3 ( 1.02MB ) Number of downloads: 237 Awesome! Like the chorus and solo very much! Solo remind me of Luca Turilli, just he usually don`t use wah. hehe thanks! Yes I decided it was time to use the dusty wah pedal once again |

Awesome thanks so much for the advice Muris - I'll tweak a little more and create a new mix! You're very welcome Kris! On the other side, tastes are soo different and there is no "perfect" mix whatsoever but we can always tweak a bit, that's for sure. -------------------- Youtube

Sounds good, specially the chorus & that killer solo. Voice sounds great but it's maybe a bit hidden by the riffing.

The song is really great Kris, the only thing is though, it hurts my ears a little bit

Thanks Kris I'll try to master this one as well if you like..? I'll add an explanation this time around as well, totally forgit about that last time I'm afraid Absolutely - I'd love to hear how it sounds after your touch! If anyone else wants to have go that would be very cool as well. a_loner_no_master.wav ( 52.85MB ) Number of downloads: 222 Solo is awesome Kris! The song as whole is very catchy too, I get a little BLS vibe from it too. I agree that the second mix is better and and has a bit more bite to it. Imo, I think the drums could use some more bass to give it a much heavier sound. Like Muris said, opinions will vary and I think you did a fantastic job with this one Kris. Thanks Steve! The BLS sound might come from the artificial harmonics - love those. Greaaaat tune, chorus is very catchy and as already said reminds me a bit of SOAD too. I think your voice could sound even more awesome recorded and mixed up in a studio. But great quality for home recording ( ? ) anyway! Great one again, congrats for making me some fun this evening Thanks! Yes home recording (but under improvement!). |

Well, here's my quick take
Loner Master Test: master2.mp3 ( 7.93MB ) Number of downloads: 233 I added some lows, and removed a little mid with a equalizer. Added a little tube excitement in the output, as well as a stereo expander.. And finally I used one of TC electronics mastering tools where I added some limiter, compressor, a little highs to sweeten it up () and removing the clipping that came with the additional plug-ins The stereo expander doesn't work as well as it should when only having one track to work it's magic on, but it does ok still.. You're track is too loud to begin with actually, asyou can see on the wave file. It's very compressed, but I think I worked my way well around that and did a good master The best would have been to have all the tracks, with no plug-ins on them so I could mix them myself and master it, but I'm sure you wanna be in control of mixing your own song Anyway, hope you like it Skenningtons take was also good, although I find it to be too wide when dubbing tracks and working with it that way. That's why I like a Stereo Enhancer better, makes it more subtle, but still very noticable But good work Skenny, just turn off you Antivirus next time This post has been edited by audiopaal: Apr 19 2009, 08:52 PM |

The 2nd Kris's version sounds better than first one!
Master mix from audiopaal sounds great too, I think it is a bit too boomy tho. A more subtle compression would be better. This post has been edited by Ivan Milenkovic: Apr 19 2009, 09:00 PM -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE
