Hey everyone,
I wanted to post this mix of my current band and see what you guys think. Any constructive criticisms about anything you hear will be most helpful in the future. Although I did preliminary mixing on the drums, our bassist mixed the rest of this on an Ensonq Paris. We ran into ALOT of complications on the Paris software concerning DirectX effects application and we did alot of things in a roundabout way that I don't have the space to explian right now. Does anyone else here use the Ensoniq Paris and is there any way that we can use different software to mixdown on? I personally use N-track Studio on my home PC and I think that it has a more simplistic, WYHIWYG (what you hear is what you get) approach to everything as oppsed to the Paris and was wondering if we could capture our audio through the Paris and perform mixdown through N-track after the fact? This was one of our very first recordings we performed through the PAris and while we've improved light years since then, I just down't like the workflow of the Paris software at least for what we need and perform on it. The hardware does an excellent job of capturing clean audio but I just hate the software.
Although we did everything in the digital realm, we tried really hard to give the song an almost analog feel at the same time. Then name of the song is Spookie Jar.
Only the bass drum was resampled through a DM5. The drums almost sound like we were running into some phasing issuses with the drum mics. I was wondering if the drums have an odd chorus-y or almost a "tinhorn" sound to you and if it does, does it stand out too much to distract from the rest of the song?
Anyway, here is the link to our Spookie Jar song on Soundclick:
