Listening on headphones... I think the mix sounds good overall. The vocals sound good when they're not heavily processed, I guess what you would call the lead (for example, from 1:30-1:40). The parts where the vocals are stylized (like around 0:50 and 2:05) don't sit well with me, but that's...

Nice tune! The vocals sound thin to me; not sure if it's a volume issue or eq. I want the lead vox to control the track more rather than getting squished under the drums. I don't think the hi-hats sound bad, at least not bad enough to necessitate retracking. I think you could just drop the...

I think the guitars and bass sound fairly well glued together. The drums do sound a bit isolated, especially the cymbals. There's some string noise around 3:20 just before the last chord, and the timing seems slightly off between the two guitars on that chord. Overall it's sounding pretty...

I agree that the vocals are not too loud. I think they could come up just a hair, but they're fine as is. I would put the guitar solos up a little bit too, especially the one at the end. Everything comes through clearly, nice work! edit: I definitely hear more harmonies; you should go for it!

Hi everyone, here's the second post-worthy mix from my new album. It's called Anne-Marie, about trying to resist the allure of a girl I met at a show. I'd really appreciate feedback on both the arrangement and mix. I'd especially like to know if you think the arrangement needs anything more...

bump - anyone have feedback to offer?

Just wanted to let those of you who were in on this thread know that I posted a first real mix of this song here: https://homerecording.com/bbs/general-discussions/mp3-mixing-clinic/angels-dixboro-road-mix-1-a-340279/ Please check it out and let me know what you think. Thanks!

Hi all, here's the first post-worthy mix from the new album I'm working on. It's not done, but I think it's ready to be critiqued. The Poem Adept | Seattle, WA | Folk | Music, Lyrics, Songs, and Videos | ReverbNation Note that this song is pretty long, and the mix builds slowly, so please...

Update: worked around the problem by creating a new instrument track and copy/pasting the notes from the old track. The new track is responding to volume control. Still, does anyone know what caused this? Is it a bug, or did I somehow cause it? Thanks!

Hi all, I was just working on a project in Cubase 5, doing something completely unrelated to the HalionOne organ track. When I pressed play, the Midi volume was maxed out, and nothing I do seems to change it. I tried reloading the project, playing with individual note velocity, and moving...

Thanks for the response! What is the difference between Free Warp and the regular Audio Warp function? Audio Warp appears to manipulate the tempo track; does that mean it is changing the other tracks to fit the shaker? Sounds like free warp just changes the audio of the track in question...

I always find the answer about 10 minutes after I post. I guess I should post more often! I had been using the pitch/segment warp rather than the audio warp function, because I don't typically record instruments outside of the pitch range. Learn something new every day... Mod, feel free to...

Hi all, I'm using Cubase 5 to work on a song that has a shaker track in the background. There are a few hits that are slightly off, and I'd like to use Variaudio time warp to fix them, but nothing shows up when I load the track into Variaudio pitch/warp because the pitch is off the chart...

Thanks for the feedback! After hearing from you and from various friends, I decided to go with a tempo just under the third option here. These recordings were at 76 bpm, 77.5 bpm, and 79.125 bpm, respectively. I went with 79 bpm. Again, thanks for your help, and Duesenberg I'm glad you like...

I see what you're saying, but I don't think the lyrics alone can dictate where the groove is. Did you think the slowest track was best, or did you just think it was good enough? I appreciate the feedback!

Thought I'd post the lyrics too, since I know some folks like to read along while they listen. 2:30 am out on Dixboro Road Ernie and I are in his parent’s minivan Driving around without anywhere to go Listening to the late night shows on WCBN Around a curve a truck is run off the road His axle...

Hi all, I'm just getting underway with my third album, and am struggling with the tempo on this song. I've toyed around with the BPM, but I just can't make up my mind. Sometimes it sounds slow, sometimes it sounds fine. I need more opinions. So, I've posted three versions of the same song at...

Upon further review I agree with you about the 5th string. I thought I needed it, but it's just in the way. Returning bass shortly...

So you're saying I got a mutant bass? Does that make it a worse deal? To answer Guitargod, yes it has active electronics. I'm not that knowledgeable about pickups, so I can't identify what they are. They sound good though.

Hi all, I have been looking for a recording bass for a while - something with good direct tone, since I don't play bass live. I was in my local music shop for strings and tried this 5-string by The Bass Company, which I hadn't heard of before. The tone is nice, and the price seemed all...
