I thought this was really good. Great playing. Tones on things are very nice. I liked the levels and balance. @Papanate mentioned the low bass level. But I thought it was appropriate. Just a difference of opinion. He also mentioned he didn't like the drums. Agree with that - they're not...

I think mix #2 is an improvement in one way. The excessive high end in the instruments is reduced. But I think the vocal is possibly even more muffled than in mix #1. And yeah it's hit very hard with a limiter. It sounds like almost everything in the mix is competing to be front and center...

Good energy. Some cool parts to the instruments. Like few other people, I thought things were a little bright. In particular, the synths/snare/brass were very bright. But then the vocal is missing quite a bit of top end. And so it lacks that clarity and sheen that the top end provides...

Well I hate to say it, but your attempt at sarcasm was completely lost on me. :) Oh well.

I thought this was really good. Vocal sound and performances were excellent. Liked the breathy backing vox. Drums sound great. Except the kick is a little woofy. The guitars that kick in at 1:54 sound terrific. The bass has great articulation of the notes. Perfect. What do you mean...

I thought things sounded pretty good. The drum compression didn't bother me. I liked the guitar sounds. I thought the bass was a little rumbly. Maybe take the low end down just a bit. Little vocal pitch issue around :44. A bit sharp. A few others later on. The stereo delay in the vocal...

It sounded really good. Excellent quality on all the recording. Great clarity and tonal balance. Good performances. Only one minor point... There are times when the violin is playing that it causes the mix lean to the left. I think you might be able to balance that out with the level of...

I wouldn't turn up the bass a whole lot. But I think you could get away with a 1-2 db boost and it wouldn't get boomy. Or yeah, try a boost in the 1.5 - 2K range to see if that brings some definition to it. On the cymbals, I'm guessing they're in the overheads. Maybe do a small shelf cut...

I thought guitars sounded pretty good. They could maybe use a bit more "chug" tho. I wonder if you could use a compressor with a long-ish attack time (like 80-90 msec), 2-3 db of gain reduction, and get a bit more chug out of them. Particularly the rhythm guitar on the right. Some pitchiness...

OK I put a "Mix" 2 at the top. But there are no "mix" changes per se. I had a couple of spots in the double tracked guitar that I wanted to get more in sync. One track rushed the beat and the other was right on beat. Originally I moved the "rushed" stab back to the beat. That gave that...

I think I know what you mean now. Let me see what I can do.

Thanks to @Seafroggys, @PorterhouseMusic, @DM60, and @R D Smith. As to the "dragging" thing on the instruments, I'm not 100% sure what you're talking about. I don't think it's an effect - all there is is the typical EQ/compression/reverb stuff. Is it a timing thing? Is it going on throughout...

This is a song I did a few years ago. I redid it at a faster tempo, different guitars, and different harmonies. Thoughts? MIX #1 Mix #2 Boob Job My girl know just what she wants And she ain't the kind to hesitate That girl's at least a solid seven And on a good day she might be an eight...

Damn. I wanted to steal the idea. You can't steal a happy accident. damn.

I didn't think it was bass heavy. And if I don't think it's bass heavy, it isn't bass heavy. I think everything is bass heavy. I thought it sounded pretty good. Is there any reason why the vocals drift from the center to the left, and then back to the center?

I wondered that too. Flanger? Chorus? Something else? It sounded cool and I'd like to steal the approach sometime.

I thought it sounded nice. Pleasant tone on everything. The only thing I might suggest is to nudge up the harmony vocals just a bit in the chorus.

I really like the song. Great melody. Nice vocal performance. Love when the low end kicks in - nice. Huge improvement in mix 3. Before that, the guitar was way too tinny. It sounds much better in mix 3. But low end kicking in is not as well in mix 3 as it was in mix2. I think whatever...

Great mix. Excellent performances. Nice tone on most everything. Great production ideas. The only things I'd think about... The lead-ish guitar in the intro is a bit bright/crispy. The tempo is a bit fast. The vocal is just a bit rushed. If the tempo were a bit slower, the listener could...

Maybe keep it to the left, but just not quite so far? Just a thought.
