Hi
I have been studying mixing and mastering in Sonar the last few weeks, to get my recordings to sound a little better. I used this Satriani cover I recorded few months ago to practice on, but there´s plenty going on in that song. Superior Drummer 2 used for drums, Guitar Rig 4 for guitars and bass. The new mix sounds ALOT better though it´s not perfect, but i´m getting closer. Here is the old mix: Forgotten_Part_II.mp3 ( 6.91MB ) Number of downloads: 287 And here is the new mix: Forgotten_Part_II__Master_.mp3 ( 11.48MB ) Number of downloads: 267 Enjoy. -------------------- Electric Guitars: Gibson SG 61´ Reissue, Gibson Les Paul Classic, Fender Standard American Stratocaster (2008 OW RW) , Fender Standard American Stratocaster (2003 2TSB MPL), Ibanez Prestige RG2570E, Warmoth Telecaster (BlueBurst), Warmoth Custom (CherryBurst).
Accoustic Guitars: Ovation Custom Legend, Ovation Legend (12 string), Martin 000-15M. Classical Guitars: Jose Ramirez 125 Ano (Cedar), Manuel Rodriguez Model D (Spruce). Bass: Ibanez SRX500. Keyboard: M-Audio Keystation 88es. Recording interface: Focusrite Saffire Pro 24 DPS. |

Performance and song sound good to me but I think you need to look at the mix again.
Some of this may be partly down to poor summing in the mp3 but even allowing for that you´re mix is clipped and distorting and so also sounds a little sharp and thin. So you need to lower the track levels either at recording and/or mixing. I´d also suggest that you watch the sub bass region and the mid around 4-800Hz. -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.

Wow great song man! I like the mix as well. It a bit too sharp/bright on my system. But overall sounds pretty professional

Tony gave some great notes here so I don't have much to add other than well done on the performance and
post the tweaked mix when you can so we can all give it a listen Todd |
