I have no idea what it's called. So, I'll try to explain and hopefully someone will be able to understand and help. I have looked on youtube and can't find a video for what I want to do. This is ONLY an example: I have 3 guitars on the right side. Acoustic is panned 100 Rhythm is panned 50...

If you've ever read any of my posts or listened to anyone of my mixes, I ain't normal. It's not a good or bad thing, it just is. Listening to the album I just mixed, 7 songs are right in line, 1 is a bit loud (easy fix), 2 have low parts that are just too low (which might be a harder fix)...

The song is called Beautiful. I have one question: The break is strange. The ending of the solo is dissonant. There's good and bad dissonance. When I recorded this, I thought "this is it". It tops off the weirdness that is the break. But, I have a few friends that hate any dissonance in pop...

This is the last song I recorded before starting the album I'm working on. It's the first "The GC Star" song, and was mixed by Mr. Don Casale a wonderful lifelong engineer. His most famous album engineering is Iron Butterfly's In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida. I've known Don since the 80s. Relax | The GC Star

I thought I was done recording for a while. But, this song came to me. Perhaps it's because it's my newest song, I think it's pretty cool. I think the mix is there. But... One Mistake by Frances Farmer My Hero | Free Listening on SoundCloud

I was told a while ago that the pledge was so badly out of key that many wouldn't listen to it. They thought the rest sounded fine. I replaced the singing class pledge (taken from youtube) with a spoken version of my own. So, hopefully the out-of-key stuff is gone. But, with me, you never know...

I keep my Master Fader at 0. None of the tracks are recorded hot. They're all recorded well (as well as I can do). None hit the red on 0. I never have to push them up for them to be heard. I can blend fairly well. Maybe 2 or 3 times in a song, usually on a vocal word, the meter will nudge...

This is hopefully the last one I need to ask opinions on. It's a mammoth. The one thing I do know, I hate the opening and closing vocal. The reverb drenched before the lyrics come in. Spree C by Frances Farmer My Hero | Free Listening on SoundCloud

I used to follow The Muffs around the east coast for years. If you're a fan, you know Kim passed away in October from ALS. I made this video tribute. It's nice, if you're a fan.

I do believe this is the final mix for this song. I had two up originally, but one sounds weak next to two. Any thoughts would be appreciated. BTW: The avatar is a painting by a magnificent surrealist painter Naoto Hattori. That painting with such detail is roughly 2.5" x 2.5". Ashleigh's...

This song is a tribute to my God. Who apparently HATES this song. Because when I think it's where it's suppose to be, something else is pointed out. BUT, I think this is it. YES, there's dissonance in the guitar work (not bass), for once I just really like it, and have decided to keep it in...

I have Pro Tools 6 and only have the reverb that comes with it. Small/Med/Large - Hall/Room 1 & 2/Ambient/ etc I'm mixing, and I do NOTHING with any true knowledge. I listen to what I like and leave it at that. I have one professional who rarely likes the amount of reverb I use (I just love the...

Never mind. There should be a way to delete a thread like this.

I aimed to do a deconstructed break. It's weird. I like it, but I'm not exactly sure. Maybe a different effect on the vocal at that point. I don't know. The BG vocals are they in key? Believe by Frances Farmer My Hero | Free Listening on SoundCloud

For the most part Ramones songs are under 3 minutes, and the early stuff is under 2 minutes. They are what's known as the exception to the rule. There are others, but very few. Since I don't speak in musical language, I hope I can make my point clear. Because it can only help when recording...

Besides the mix, if there's any blaring off-key vocals or anything, let me know. I wanted to try something different. Depending on the level, I started this in mono. I'm a little strange. The lyrics are in the soundcloud notes, if you care. Partners by Frances Farmer My Hero | Free...

I can really use some open-minded opinions on this. I always send a copy of my songs to select friends to guide me on my out-of-key notes. It's always my vocals. I knew the guitar parts were weird, because of the fluid acoustic chords. I didn't know they were dissonant. There is good dissonance...

I have Pro Tools 6. When I want to upload any audio file (usually exported from melodyne) it never works. So, I right click on the audio file and choose open with Pro Tools. The audio file is uploaded and everything works great. I changed a live drum track in melodyne to a midi file. I tried...

I'm probably not going to explain this correctly. But, I'm hoping someone will be able to recognize what I'm looking for. Somewhere on a thread someone mentioned a "plug in" that shows the range of waves while mixing, so you can be sure you're not to high or low, and that your mix has a proper...

You ever record a song and like it one minute and can't stand it the next? Maybe I'm getting too picky, or maybe not picky enough. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Partners by Frances Farmer My Hero | Free Listening on SoundCloud You were unruly Left me in charge of the moon I didn't notice...
