Hi All, it's been quite awhile since I've posted anything. I've been working on my recording and mixing skills, and trying to soak up anything I can that will improve what I'm doing, and I have a new song and mix to share that I'm excited about and hoping that you kind and generous people will...

Hi All, It's been awhile since I've been on the forum, and I hate to ask for mix feedback when I haven't been active lately, but I'm hoping you'll forgive that and still help :) I've been working with an artist in my home studio, which is a first for me, and we're completing the last couple of...

Hi All, I've recently started working on producing and recording a singer songwriter. We've got one song near finished, and I'd love to have any feedback on this mix. Best, Dave DeWhitt

Hi All, Here is a new song from my trio that i just finished mixing, and I'd welcome any feedback on the mix, the performances, the song, etc. Thanks in advance! https://soundcloud.com/davedewhitt/we-are-one Dave DeWhitt

Hi All, I received great feedback from you guys on the initial mixes of my trio's song "Heavy" a few weeks ago. Since then, I had my bass player finally come over and record the real BGVs (previously they were placeholders that I sang), and I also updated the mix a little bit to bring up the...

Hi All, This is a new track I just recorded with my trio in a live format using real, honest-to-goodness mic'd guitar and bass amps and drums (everything I've previously done has been using software sims). I would appreciate any feedback on the mix, as I'm at the point where I'm too close to...

Hi All, It's been awhile since I posted in the clinic. I haven't written much since I finished up my CD last year (a self-imposed break!), but recently I've started playing around with some instrumentals in various styles. I've posted a couple up on Soundclick, and I'd welcome any feedback...

Ah, ok...my bad. The way I read your post I thought you were looking for both audio and video comments :) I think your approach is certainly valid and you may be absolutely right about the busyness of too many cuts in the frames. I have some lighting being delivered to my door sometime this...

I think the site looks very nice, and it's well-laid-out and clear. I definitely agree with VHS that the stretched cymbal banner could be improved. I think a banner there is a great idea, just maybe try to incorporate the cymbal with some other visuals in a layered format? Good luck with the...

Hi Chris, I think this is pretty cool, and you are a great musician with good timing and a laid-back feel, so it's very easy to listen to and enjoy. I am just starting to think about putting together a video like this for a song or two from my album, so I'm very interested in the whole process...

Hi All, I have finally completed my first album, Signs of Life, and it is now available for shipping and/or download from CDBaby.com. I want to to say a HUGE thanks to everyone on this forum who provided me with so much awesome mixing feedback and advice over the course of the last couple of...

Hi All, I have an album pending release, so I figured I should create a website to have some kind of starting point for people that are interested in my music (if there are any...ha ha). I used weebly, which is definitely limited, but other than the domain registration fee (which seemed high...

Hey All, Does anyone have any super cool secret tips and tricks for recording keyboard-generated string parts that sound really nice? I'm not necessarily talking about particular samples or patches that are preferred, but more about techniques. For example, I read somewhere on this forum at...

Thanks, Greg. BigRed360 - thanks for the listen and the comments - two very good points :) Here's the mix with no compression on the stereo output, and the exciter removed from the lead vocal track. This is what I'm sending to Jan in stem format. Thanks, everyone, for the input and...

Hey Guys, Thanks for listening! I'm scratching my head a little bit on my end, because I'm not hearing any of the things you are describing. I have some compression on the stereo mix, but not really that much, and honestly, when I'm listening here it's sounding like the best mix I've ever done...

Hello All, It's been awhile since I posted a new tune, but I just finished one last night that I think turned out pretty well, and I'm hoping to get feedback. It's called "Last Straw", and you can find it here: SoundClick artist: Dave DeWhitt - page with MP3 music downloads Lyrics are on the...

Here's what I was hearing in my head...well, at least the piano was...the harmonica is pretty basic...if you like it, I could try to come up with something a little more melodic and try to play it better. I didn't spend a ton of time on this, so it's a little rough. The timing was somewhat...

Hi All, This is a song I posted awhile ago in the clinic, but this is a new mix, and I would love to hear any thoughts/comments: http://soundcloud.com/davedewhitt/take-me-home-v0-25 Best Regards, Dave DeWhitt

Hi All, I apologize if this topic has already been covered here, but I've skimmed through the threads and didn't see anything that directly answered some of my questions, so I figured I'd start a new one. Mainly, I'm just trying to figure out if there are any mixing guidelines that are helpful...

Hi All, Here is a new song called Moving On that I just finished. I'm looking for mix feedback and any comments are welcome. This is my first time recording a uke, so curious to see if it turned out ok. http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=10626552 Based on some of the comments below, I...
