    Composition Recording for Class

    I like the composition as a whole...great Piano playing... As for the song...I'm a Country & Christian Singer/Songwriter so Lyrics are really important to me in my Genres, so take my opinion with that in mind....I personally would rather the subject matter be different...People can relate, but...

    Like A Rolling Stone....in a fashion.

    Listened 2x and I love alot of the elements in this....The melding of influences.....It's like you are backed by the WHO, and you sing it as a mish-mash of Daultry & Dylan.......Really cool vibe.....needs a break-up in the middle....................Heck you could bust out a RAP on this one...

    Here we go again....

    I think the Lead VOX needs to be up a Smidge....I am a Country & Christian Artist myself and in BOTH my Genres the message is so important....You are doing CCM here so IMO the message needs to be heard a little teensy bit more....we gottta hear and understand the message without straining to...

    Song Recorded, Mixed & Mastered on TASCAM DP24 Digital Multi-Track

    Thanks for the input & yeah....The Volume is a concern....I peaked at qbout to -4Db on the mix....Then Mastered.....This was unfortunately recorded at 16 Bit 44.1 Hz....(Didn't know better) so I mixed it there....Not concerned with the LOUDNESS WAR...but I would like this one up a couple of...

    Song Recorded, Mixed & MASTERED entirely on Tascam DP24

    unfortunately the original mix is gone...i did a INSTRUMENTAL TRACK mixdown...the DP24 lets you keep one Master at a time...I just learned to save all work by transferring to the Computer.... I guess I could post the direct MP3 that i did...I use SWITCH SOUND FILE CONVERTER......

    Song Recorded, Mixed & MASTERED entirely on Tascam DP24

    Well...thx for the crit. I had to look up what you meant by Artifacts....Usually this is why I don't do my own stuff...But hey can't pay for ALL the songs I write to dress them up and use the PROS... So I figured I'd try a few tunes myself.....It's a learning curve to be sure thx

    Song Recorded, Mixed & MASTERED entirely on Tascam DP24

    Hey All Posted this in MP3...But I need clarity on the MASTERING aspect of this one....First time MASTERING...I left about 3-4 Db Headroom on mixdown...recorded at 16 Bit 44.1 HZ...(I know, I know...long story won't happen again).....Thoughts on the Mastering are what I'm looking for here I...

    Transmit The Dead [Modern Rock/Metal]

    First off...Being TITLED Metal...With a DEAD in the title, I almost just passed as I would not be the best expert on this as a Country Artist....I'm a Singer/Songwriter... Mix is well balanced...What I liked most is the Vocal...Cool relaxed vibe, fits the track perfectly...like the changes...

    "Sharp" - Any feedback is great.

    Sounds like me breathing and makin noises at the beginning.... Even with this style of music there should be clarity and distinction to it....Drums are too low...Vocal too loud.... Re-mix this puppy.....

    My Track Sounded Awful On Internet Radio

    Straight PRETENDERS vibe....from vocalist to stylistically.... My stuff gets a lot of play on the NET...and even my most critical works seem to not sound quite right...people love it, so maybe we just crit ours more harshly.... For example on Computer speakers I never hear the BASS whether...

    Song Recorded, Mixed & Mastered on TASCAM DP24 Digital Multi-Track

    Hey All Country & Christian Artist here, who normally uses my Producer & Session Players for my releases....Can't afford to do that on every single tune... So I forced myself to do a song entirely by myself on the TASCAM DP24 Digital Multi-track to see what I could actually do on my own and on...

    Acoustic Rock Album, Please Critique

    Playing Dead is what I listened to.... I would can the high pitched airplane? sound.....drums are off in timing....need to be replaced... Guitar is out of tune.... Did you know it took Bruce Springsteen 5 years to get a recording of "BORN TO RUN" to get to his liking? I would give this one...

    You - feedback please

    Vocalist has a Burton Cummings sound in your face...cool Track is full for so few instruments Clear mix...I would probably want a little more arrangement-wise mid-way through to the end...but that is personal preference My thought would be I would've added Orchestral strings at the...

    Noob need advice on mixing, please review my mix

    Well....You did yourself a huge favor by making it a sparse arrangement....Jazz Guitar is fine volume-wise...I think the BGV's could be up a smidge.... Not thrilled with the EQ on the flute...needs to stand out more.... Love the tone of the Vocalist....But the ad-lib at the end "Could it be...
