I'm calling this one done after uploading this final mix. I Really appreciate everyone's help! If I make any further changes I'll just edit the OP and wont bump it back up. moving on .. mark

@Serendipity Records , Thanks for the drums suggestion. I'll probably play with them a little more later. @dachay2tnr , I'm not hearing excessive reverb on the Vox tracks even with them soloed. I think a lot of the verb was coming from the close to centered tremolo guitar track. Great call on...

The link now reflects Remix 1. I tamed the drums a little using 1/8 instead of 1/16 patterns (except for the outro) and lowered them a bit. Added a shaker (needs further work) and reduced the reverb on the electric guitar and Vox tracks. Thanks for the suggestions so far .. Still a work in...

Yep , and if you did anything to the overall compression settings on the main mix , it would effect it also. Whatever you did worked well.

This mix sounds much tighter and smoother. The guitars seem to be glued together better in this version as well. Well Done.. mark

@JAPOV , Thanks for the listen and the suggestions. I have pretty minimal reverb settings on the Vox tracks. I think the frequency's where they live got boosted in the mastering phase. I also felt a few phrases needed shorter tails. Easy fix as well as the main Vox EQ. Done . I'll have to...

Hello , here's a singer songwriter type of country ballad I co wrote with my former bass player. This the final mix on this very simple song. Thank you all for helping me get this to completion ! I'm calling it done .. mark https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=14693407

Very Nice mix. No crits or suggestions. I loved the short midi guitar section. Amazing what a simple part can add to a mix. Enjoyed it .. mark

Yowie , It took me about 5 seconds to realize I was going to "Love" this one. I really liked the stereo delay on the sax you put in when the song got going . I think a "little" bit of it would be nice earlier on. I may have tried some different panning on the first minute or 2 on the...

Welcome yowie. Yeah .. feedback and more ears on a project is a "must" for me. Some of it you get will be what you need , and some will have you chasing your tail with no good results. If what you get is an honest opinion , and thats what they really feel , it should be explored. If you are...

Keith , Thanks for the reply back. I've got a fairly large amount of IR reverbs to choose from in Cakewalk , but have only actually used one of them. I'd never heard of the mic's you used , so I researched them. They are "for sure" too far out of my reach. I'll have to stick with my AT's and...

Hey , I'm listening on very "slightly" bass hyped headphones and everything sounds Great to me. I enjoy "any" genre of music that's done well , and I think you hit the spot on this one (for me). On the suggestion side .. I have a pet peave about a song starting as soon as I press the play...

Keith , Excellent performance ! I was Super impressed by the tone and clairity of both of the instruments. I loved your choice of reverb. Just the right amount of decay and brought out the rich overtones. What did you use on this one if you don't mind sharing ? Enjoyed it .. mark

Thanks , I only recently started officially releasing my originals. I did one yesterday , and while I was in there I checked my streaming bank acccount. So far I've made $ 82 cents ! I'm Well on my way to buying a new Apollo interface. Soundcloud and SoundClick will always remain intact. ms

Yeah .. and I'm feeling like the village idiot ! Thanks guys .

@HumanPlanet Yes ! , that is the way it was originally recorded. No pause , just jumped straight from 68bpm to 80bpm. I was convinced to put the pause in by members on a different forum and they are Normally right. Now I Don't like the pause and the faster bpm part doesn't have the same impact...

@HumanPlanet , Yeah .. thats the problem I had with it. I Kept thinking it sounded right (or acceptable) but , kept getting bad comments about it . I had to get away from it for a while to get a better perspective. Thanks for all the Great comments on my Soundcloud page. @dobro , Thanks for the...

Thanks @JAPOV , I've always been a Doobie Bros fan. I've done a Remix and probably the Final . I Finally got the pause at the tempo change the coorect length . Don't know why this was such a problem . Thanks .. mark

Hey , I Love the low end in this one . The bass stabs were real nice. For sure was a nice lead break with the FX and proper EQ on the guitar. One thing I noticed about this mix compaired to your others , is the Highs being a little more subdued. Nice! They sound cleaner without the piercing...

@Serendipity Records , yeah .. I went back and listened to the shakers pretty close. I thought they were where they should be. I figured it was during the pause before the tempo change that was your concearn. Still thought it was ok. The pause before the tempo change section was a nightmare to...
