Took another stab mixing from scratch last night using some of the tips people had suggested. Before, my fiance couldnt hear my vocal words but now she can, which is a good sign that it's at least better. Definitely still some tweaking to be done (bass sounds a bit loud through airpods but...

I will give it a shot and post something eventually

Thanks for the feedback. There's a lot of instruments in the song that I want to keep, but it's proving challenging to give a pan/frequency space to everything... The vocals in particular I am fighting hardest with to make them crisp and clear. As @Papanate has said the vocal doubling also...

Love the groove/concept! +1 to The pads are a bit overwhelming, especially when the vocals are singing. I like the part at 2:15, the pause from the standard chug At least to my airpods, I feel like the final guitar solo could be a bit more up front to slash our souls.

Love the tone on the guitars at "The Who" entrance. Would love to hear a rocker voice come on the scene and sing some sweet nothing's... The strings/FX that come in starting around 1:36 feel a bit cheap to me. The solo at 2:51 is a bit muddied and I think could be cleaned up/brought to the...

Been spending a long time on this western epic, would really appreciate some feedback. What sticks out?

So sounds like you need to stack a *lot* of vocals then to get this level of smooth.... 10? 100? a million?

Hey all, For all those expert engineers out there, I am trying to understand how to replicate the female vocals that come in panned at 1:19 in the chorus - . They are so luscious(!!) and wash over you but I have no idea what the "special sauce" may be. My guess is you need a long-tail reverb...

For any of y'all interested, here is the final mix - Added some arpeggio piano to the "climax", and tried to incorporate the suggestions mentioned here.

Overall sounds pretty well mixed. Maybe my pop conditioning, but I think the main vocals could be a touch more up front. It doesn't feel like the "front layer" in my face unlike most pop mixes. The guitar that comes in at 1:29 feels a bit thin, would be nice to add a bit more punch to rip...

Hey all, Been (trying to) come up with a moody track as an outlet for some of the 2021 winter cold/isolation I (and many of you) have collectively been going through. Would highly appreciate a bash / some feedback. I feel like I have some good vibes but still room for improvement. E.g maybe my...

What is the technology status these days of taking a WAV file of recorded guitar (no other instruments) and converting it to midi? Is this a solved problem and any midi transcriber should do? Or do some do this really well and others do not? Is the midi converter robust to FX (delay, reverb...

Sorry for the delayed response, glad you enjoyed it :)! I was going for a Daft Punk Homage :) :)... I used Bitspeek VST - Sonic Charge - Bitspeek - with basically: - tracking all the way to 0 (perfect tracking) - detune close to 0 (mostly in tune) - pitch set to 0 (12 o'clock). Could also be...

Nice, this sounds great overall! Most of my comments will be nit picking - Love the vocals, it could maybe use a touch more reverb/presence to make it sound like youre in a stadium, as well as maybe a touch of autotune/melodyne here and there (though maybe that's just my pop music standards...

The vocals could use a bit of work I think... it feels a bit in the background (while the piano in my left ear feels very much in the foreground). Maybe "I dont want your" could have vocal doubles to add emphasis? Would love to hear more low frequency/bass sounds fill the empty bottom as well...
