    Yeah, this feels better. Damn. It takes a village sometimes, yeah?

    Old Tennessee -Final Mix-

    Nice listen, Mark. I'd like the vocal(s) up a taste, but that's just me. The singing's the obvious focus of the song, and I like it to be prominent. It's a thought/preference not a crit/suggestion.

    My Dutch reggae project (reaching out to old friends)

    Better than good. Be proud. They're all great, but Track 6 is my fav. Just saying. (Or rather, not saying, because I can't pronounce it.) On another site I frequent, I listen to tracks by a Welsh country band - they sound like Nashville, but they sing in Welsh. Welsh cowboys, Dutch reggae -...

    Round and Round

    I think it's short for 'pokey out sostenuto'.

    Need feedback (Half Completed Demo)

    Yeah, I agree with this. My preference, however, would be for a slightly bigger bottom on the kick, b-u-t... that's always a subjective call with this stuff. I heard somebody say something interesting about instrumental music like this - he said he didn't want to make an instrumental track...

    Round and Round

    That clicky rim shot(?) in the first verse really pokes out, even moreso on small speakers. Maybe make it less pokey out? That's all I noticed, cuz mostly I was listening to the song itself, which is really good news mix-wise. I think this one's one of your best, that I've heard anyway. Oh...

    The Prince Of Nothing

    On the monitors I listened to the Stones 'Angry' and then an AC/DC track. This kind of music's always better through bigger speakers. Yours sounds better through the big speakers by comparison. Noticed the verb on the guitar this time. Like it. Noticed the side vocals. It just sounds better...

    The Prince Of Nothing

    I listened on the ipad through both its speaker and earbuds to your tune and a couple of AC/DC tunes. Your mix is, interestingly, clearer but crispier. I prefer the AC/DC sound. I'll run the same AC/DC A/B (nice alphabetizing, yes?) later on the big speakers and report back.

    Feedback on a song in progress

    I like it. It sounds good through the big monitors and also through the mixcube, but interestingly, I think it's a touch better through the mixcube. Why? I think it's because the vocal's more present because the big drums are smaller. This is a pop song, after all. A good pop song. It's really...

    Trouble With the Leaves...(The Dark Side Of The Cheese)

    The wah chorus bits would do better if they were more in sync. It sounds like the groove is falling apart. Really, really like the groove and the vibe you got on this one.

    General opinions on this track

    Knowing what you like and what you don't is one of those beginnings of integrity. The alternative is to applaud when the person next to you starts clapping.

    General opinions on this track

    Don't apologize for how something lands in your mind, in fact, trust your first impressions is usually the way to go. So, if you were producer, the song would be different? Always true. So, what kind of singer would you bring in to do this better? Also, imagine you weren't the producer, if...

    Dynamic EQ adds a threshold to the EQ setting, so it kicks in only when the signal's relatively loud. I like it better than static EQ usually. I think you discovered it by the back door.

    Thanks. Sounds like dynamic EQ.

    General opinions on this track

    Perfect pop, perfect video. What's not to like? How did I end up with a gerbil? How, indeed. World class. Too good for this place, but thanks for posting. I really enjoyed that.

    Don't Wait (chilled version) SubVibe collab V -REMIX-

    I've never ducked anything (except insults), but that idea of ducking the reverb is intriguing. How would it work? When the vocal's a strong signal, it reduces the verb level which then comes back up on the vocal tails? Is that the idea?

    Don't Wait (chilled version) SubVibe collab V -REMIX-

    Second listen: It's better through big speakers. No surprise. That hihat or ride is still trebly, but okay. But I wanted to hear more of the backing vocal through both listening devices. What happens to the mix if you drop the main vocal a dB?

    Don't Wait (chilled version) SubVibe collab V -REMIX-

    Really good tune, good collab, good performance. My earbuds are hyping the high end of the mix, and stuff like the snare comes across as a bit clicky/hissy. I'll listen through monitors in a bit and report back. Also, there seemed to be a big jump in levels between the intro and the start of the...

    Mr Trip, why do you think the de-esser works better than EQ?

    Listening through the VXT8s now. Well, since I get to pick one, I favor the sound on this one. But they're both good. I wouldn't describe the other one as having a harsh vocal. But this vocal has a less edgy sound. Stuff like this is so much better through bigger speakers.
