    Something I'm actually proud of...

    I love the overall sound...very professional and together sounding. (The "unmixed" version, your first finished song isn't available anymore.) One critique I do have though on the song itself...to me it was a bit boring because of just two chords and such a basic beat. I know there will be...

    Please help me improve this mix! "This Is Not a Snipe Hunt"

    Here's my self-critique: On the positive, I like my lyrics and melody. I think the I like the arrangement. Negatives: I fear the effects I added to my voice are unpleasant to listen to. I felt they were necessary because I'm a female and because of the type of song it is. What do you think...

    Please help me improve this mix! "This Is Not a Snipe Hunt"

    Hi everyone, I am new to recording and mixing. I just downloaded Logic a couple months ago and here is the result. ("This Is Not a Snipe Hunt", first song.) https://soundcloud.com/jessicazin I would really appreciate any pointers to help me improve. Maybe I'll do another post to outline all...

    gimme hell!

    Wow, I think you have a lot of potential. You can clearly sing, i.e. hit the notes reliably. I think the lyrics are quite good, intelligent, different and evocative. Now my advice... I don't know if I can explain this correctly, and it's only my opinion: it sounds amateurish because it sounds...

    Can i sing? if not, how can i get better?

    Well the positive is that you have a deep, interesting voice that I think would be interesting/pleasing if recorded. Agreed, this is not a good test. Sing without playing. Once you can do each separately, well, then try putting them together. But you don't even need to, really. Record each...

    Frills - Alt Rock

    I thought it sounded great. I also thought the vocals were a little bit too low. I like the instrumentation, the overall sound, and the 3/4 time. Lots of variation and very interesting.

    Art In The Fire - New Song

    I thought this sounded great overall. The only thing I'd improve if it was my baby was some of the vocals in the verses are a bit out of tune. I love the overall sound of your voice though. Awesome song!

    Debut mix! Opinions wanted

    Sounds relatively professional to me, but what do I know, I'm new here too. By the way, I loved your intro/disclaimers to this song, very funny... Here are my critiques... The combination of the drum/guitar/vocals sounds old-fashioned to me, the tone of the instruments and voice or something...

    I am making songs with nothing but my voice and MIDI instruments...is it hopeless?

    It sounds pretty good to me, but is that hopelessly amateurish? Or is this something that people do? My ultimate goal would be to get my songs as polished as a I can and then make a video and post to Youtube. I guess my question is, if I don't find a real bass player, and instead use midi bass...
