    Feedback on New Mix?

    I loved the song! To me, this is obviously an acoustic guitar song...so I wouldnt worry about the two acoustics in stereo. The bass could come up a little bit, maybe you could just add some low end, like 2 or 3db on 60hz and you wouldnt even need to raise the volume and you would actually get...

    Velvet Underground -- Heroin (Cover)

    I think maybe the drums could be a little bit brighter. Maybe do a shelf at 10k or something...but is not bad sounding at all...maybe it could use a little air. I dont think the vocals are that upfront. It sounds nice and it fits the whole thing really nicely. My only suggestion is that the...

    New Song (Original)

    Maybe the only change I would do to this mix is to raise the acoustic guitar a little bit. It sounds a little buried to me. But the drums and bass sound really good and tight. You've got the bass right in this mix. It almosts complements the kick drum...its really nice sounding. Love the...

    Sm57 diy

    Hey guys! Hope you're all doing fine. I had this broken SM57 for a while here at home and I decided to try and fix it. I found out that the problem was the diaphragm and that it was pretty hard to fix it and I might aswell just buy a new capsule. Well, I'm saving money for a proper capsule...

    u3

    I'm sorry I took so long to answer you! I record upright only with the top opened. I think, due to my not perfect english, I may have said something wrong. I dont point the mics to the keys...I point them on the top of the piano (at each end so then I can pan them L and R) straight to its keys...

    New Song: Mix Critique please

    Really dig the drums in this one. I agree with VHS on the acosutic sounding better on the left. Dont know why...maybe its an EQ thing. You've did a good job in this mix and the song is really nice to listen too. Welcome to the forum, btw!

    i'm sorry i'm a junkie momma

    I like the dry drums. It sounds so counter-intuitive. Its not the obvious thing to do in a song like this, but IMO it fits really well. The mix is sounding really good. I kind of dont like the delay you've panned hard L and R, bit the vocals themselves sounds great. Wonder which mic have you...

    a new one, "Road to Tabriz"

    Yeah, I can feel the you really loved this guitar, because the clean guitars sound really good and upfront. But the distorted guitars, IMHO are sounding too harsh. Drums sound nice and real. Would love to know which setup you've used. Bass sounds good to me aswell. I dont like the song...

    Could use mix feedback (Original Song)

    I like the vocals a LOT in this. Very intimate sounding. The guitars too, they sound really nice. I like the bass on this, but I think its sounding too low...I know this is weird to hear, but I miss a little bit of the bass mid range. This song reminds me of Dinosaur Jr...so much, I love it...

    u3

    I record piano sometimes. My friend has an upright piano aswell. Usually I have some trouble due to the fact that is really hard to get low end on these things. I like to record using spaced pair dynamic mics, so it doesnt sound so bright. I record it with the mics pointed to each end of the...

    tips to make a deep voice sound better ?

    You can also simply use a brighter mic. Voices are like fingerprints...one of a kind, so I suggest you experiment with other microphones. For example I like to record my vox on a Shure SM57. I've tried using condensers, other mics, but when I use the good ol' 57, I'm always pleased with the...

    BLUES ROCK MIX! Would love for some feedback and advice!

    Like VHS said, vocals are the big thing in this mix. Although I dont like the amount of effects on it, I have to admit you guys done a great job. Drums are really buried, bring them up. That being said, I think this is way more hard rock, than blues rock.

    Tall Order with easlern and ibleedburgundy

    Vocals sound great, really liked it. Which mic you guys used? It sounds clear without being over bright. I really like this dry drum sound. It sounds real and I love it. My only critique should be...I think the bass could have a more "beefy" sound. But thats just me...the mix sounds really...

    New rock song.... Mix critique needed please

    Sounds really good. I guess the mix is a little bright for my taste...but there is nothing wrong with that. One thing I noticed is, the guitars are kind of messy. Too much gain on them, so it lacks a little bit of clarity, IMO. If you could back of the gain on that distortion a little bit you...

    Live hardcore punk-rock band.

    thanks, ibleed, that was really helpful! Will do that and see if the mix gets better. VHS, Daryl Jennifer, bass player of Bad Brains cleared them out in an article I've read once. He is a good drummer, but he should hit the single kick drum notes harder...cause when he doubles it...it just...

    Live hardcore punk-rock band.

    Hey guys. So, I have to mix this live performance of a hardcore punk-rock band. The recording setup was: Drums - Two Overheads using recorderman and one kick drum mic. Guitars: Mic right in front of the amp. Bass: DI and Mic in front of the amp. Vocals: Do I really have to say? I'm having...

    60's style song, Fun with Ric.

    hey man, programming drums its not really a problem...and your mixes will definately get better if you keep practicing. If you really like this, there is nothing stopping you and you will do some good work anyway... If you can get a chance of recording a drum kit...you really should. Its the...

    Cha La Head Cha La - Glam rock ft. VHS and Greg_L

    yeahm it sounds too dead on the click or something. But that is really subjective...I know Greg likes his drums really spot on. I like a little bit of a slack drum feel, u know? but the mix isnt bad at all

    Sorrow in Gminor

    The mix is muddy. It dont sound bad at all, just muddy. Maybe try lowering the bass a little.
