Thanks again easlern. Do you hear that "effect" all the time or is it there only in some points? There is some kind of the "natural distortion" in my voice and it's hearble especially in choruses. In my lead vocal channelstrip, there aren't any other effects than short / long delay and reverb + Slate's VTM, VCC, Eq, 2 compressors.Yeah, seems like it's still there. I wonder if you might try posting a short sample w/out any effects on the vocal at all? Just to rule out anything in the daw that might be causing issues.
The mp3 sounds better than soundcloud btw, the instruments come through so nice.
Link's not working.
Massive improvement.
More thoughts?Ok, I just uploaded the new mix version to SC, less compression and limiting in the mixbus > more dynamics and I think it also changed the vocal sound slightly....a lot of other minor changes as well

Any improvement?
BroKen H, thank you for your kind words. To be honest, I do not hear it either but I'm maybe used to it? I know there is a kind of "my natural distortion" on some notes but I guess that's not what some guys are hearing. Would like to hear some more feedback about this....Listened to the remix. Guitar tone is epic. Everything sounds very good. Whatever people were hearing in the voice is either gone, or my ears are not hearing it (and others have not heard it as well). Amazing song. very professionally written. Thanks for sharing!
Vocals remind me a bit of Oasis.
Reminded me of Paul McCartney. This mix sounds really good. I hope you'll take time to listen and offer comments on other tunes posted here at the clinic.
It would be good if you can edit the original post and put the remixes there - I kept having the pick the latest version down in the thread - just a personal request.
Anyway - last mix sounds perfect - no mix issues. Great songwriting as mentioned before and the arrangement is excellent. Sounds like a pro effort
