Hi all,
I heard yesterday one of my songs played through a big PA system in a club. I was shocked and horrified how it sounded: The overall sound was shrill and some parts were not audible at all. I have heard the song through various systems before and this was the first time I noticed there's a problem.
The PA system shouldn't pose a problem as everything else sounded good. Also I have heard another songs of mine, made with the same equipment and under all the same conditions through the same PA and they were also fine so that would rule out the possibility that I would have a problem with my monitoring set up.
I made a (another) mono compatibility test with the problematic song. Everything was audible, except most of the reverb. There's a big reverb throughout the song, on purpose.
I posted the song to SoundClick so you can hear what I'm talking about. The URL for mp3 download is http://www.soundclick.com/util/downloadSong.cfm?ID=2475745
You can also access the song through my artist page http://www.soundclick.com/bands/9/chaosresearch_music.htm
I figure the problem has something to do with phase. I would appreciate it very much if you could check the song out with your system and tell me what you think the problem is exactly. Any suggestions on what I should do to correct it would be most welcome!
