Mixing sounds spot on. I agree with dobro about the spoken word bit. He's pretty much nailed it there. Sounds to me like a lot of Europop influence. It's really high energy, I like it.

Sounded good to me. I liked the banjo here, it worked well. I'm not sure how I would improve on it, each of the elements seem to have been recorded well. Maybe take the banjo down just a fraction? And I prefer a slightly thicker bass sound. I love how bright it sounds, but there seems to be a...

I totally agree. What I meant was that I was comparing Amon's mixes to this mix. As they are of a similar genre, and they have much thicker mixes, and I felt this mix was missing some of the necessary frequencies. (Lower range mostly) I would also try upping the drums and just checking through...

I think it's actually quite cool. The guitar's rhythm in a few spots seems to clash with the vocals' rhythm. I honestly don't know how to give you any pointers, but there seems to be something missing. I'm comparing it to Amon Amarth, and your mix seems to be a little thin. If you weren't...

This. Is. Brilliant. This comment really does not do your song justice.. but I don't know how else to say it.

I also have a scarlett interface. I turn my monitors off and on every time the pc turns on or reboots. I highly recommend doing this. When I do live sound engineering the same thing applies. Mixer on first, then the speakers. Speakers off first, then the mixing board. While once or twice...

Thanks man! :p It means a lot to me, really.

You posted this exact music video a week ago in the same forum. I gave you feedback, but you never responded in any way. This forum is not just for getting clicks on your video. Are you interested in hearing feedback? As for what you need to improve on, refer to your thread from last week on...

I like rap when it's done well. But this is not really any good. The rapping skill itself needs a lot of improvement. Try not to sound so tired, and as other people have said, monotonous. Rapping generally has a high energy to it, even if the song is slow, but none of this music seems to have...

I think it's a really great song, but I can't add much to what has already been recommended for you to do. I will be easily awaiting an updated version. I really liked the drums overall, do you have a big interface with lots of mics? I find drums the worst to get nice :/ Good Stuff! The singer...

I love the song! One of the coolest things I've heard from this forum. I am a fan of using rap in songs, although very specific kinds of rap. Hey, I'm the new generation right? so Linkin Park and all that is my sound. I thought the rap was excellently performed, and fits right in with the...

I have sent you a PM, thank you for the opportunity!

I thought the rap music itself wasn't that bad. I enjoy listening to eminem, and I felt like there were quite a few similarities in the style of rap. The "Music video" on the other hand wasn't any good. Using a corny effect with you just sitting there is not really any good. I would try invest...

Hey all, if you feel like it, check out this music video I just finished. I'm 18 years old, and am going to be a video editor for my career. So any tips and advice/things you didn't like are very helpful, and will aid me in becoming better. If the video seems a little random in places, its...

No feedback on the updated version? Come on guys, I know you have something to say ;)

Hi everyone, its been a while because of school work, but here is my updated mix. Thank you for all the replies, I have tried to incorporate all the great advice I was given! https://soundcloud.com/brettrayner/rain-1 EDIT: I tried to update the OP with the latest version, but I can no longer...

Thanks, I'll try find that. I don't think its in the Elements version though.. :(

great video! Very interesting. Would someone mind answering a question? How can you add dither to a recording in a DAW such as Cubase? Or is it sort of built in now days?

I have run my electric straight in, and I have Seymour Duncan '59 Sh-1 pickups, and I have never had an issue. Like someone else said, if using the instrument mode is giving you too much gain, use the line mode. I personally have never had an electric guitar with such high output as to cause...

Thanks for that, i really appreciate the feedback. I'll go take a more careful look at the EQ'ing. I know its probably a compbinatin of my monitors being a little bass light and also, I do enjoy the thick bassy textures. I really dont like the drum sound in this at all, however I can't record a...
