Definitely sounding good now.
I do agree with Storm that thinning out or pulling down the guitars in the choruses is probably a good idea. Even if it's just so that you've got somewhere to go in the last chorus. -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

And there I was thinking you'd do the original solo but as harmony lead guitar
 The tweaks are good there's more clarity in the chorus now -------------------- My SoundCloud

Todd, I can't believe how this started and how it sounds now. The difference it's huge and I really like the result.
I tried something on your track (because I don't have your original track, I had to stole it from your Soundcloud and go with this through a convertor ). After the mix is ready I usually use an external plug-in (Cool Edit Pro) to make some tiny tweaks and give a sound closer to the commercial music (a radio kind of feel). Anyway, I made just a test to show you guys what I was talking about.

Cool Edit Pro I started my digital recording journey with that. Are you also Peter Quistgard?

QUOTE (Monica Gheorghevici @ Dec 7 2021, 10:57 AM)  I like to use Cool Edit only for final tweaks. Haha...from what I know I'm not Peter Quistgard. I think I have less fans and enemies than him. That was the user name (and serial number) that was passed around the internet in the 90s/ early 2000s for the pirated version/ -------------------- My SoundCloud

Thanks for taking a listen and making a tweak
sounds like a mastering pass? I haven't gotten that far yet since it's still being mixed. I sometimes put a mastering chain on the master bus but I didn't want to impact the mix quite yet as it's still in flux. I like how it's sounding though! I do plan on doing a mastering pass on for sure.QUOTE (Monica Gheorghevici @ Dec 7 2021, 05:35 AM) Todd, I can't believe how this started and how it sounds now.

Number of downloads: 69I hadn't thought about using side chain compression but it's a good idea!! QUOTE (Caelumamittendum @ Dec 7 2021, 10:48 AM) Could the vocals in the verse be just a slight pinch louder? Or perhaps some sidechain compression (ducking?) somehow between the vocals and snare drum? I'm not an expertise on those things or know if that's something that's usually done between vocals/drums. I've seen it done (and used it myself) between other instruments. Or just lower the snare a bit in the verse? I feel like the vocals are just ever so slightly too low in the mix in the verse parts. It's such a small amount though, but almost like they're not the main focus - like I think they should be there |
