First off, thanks so much everyone for the comments it really means a lot. The drums are rigid probably because it's not a real drummer lol, I'll see what I can do about that. What about the mastering made you think I should get it professionally done? I've thought about it but it's something I...

Also you should really avoid bass and drums on the same track. It realllly limits what you can do and makes it difficult to get the kick and bass separate and boomy/punchy like you want.

Yeah, actually recording the same part two times with some slight variation. Adds some nice stereo image to the track and helps make it more full. Your right panning the same track (aka copy and pasting) won't do anything but sound bad and just raise the volume of the guitar and perhaps even...

Cool, generally you don't want to just slap a compressor on the master mix, use it to bring elements in the actual mix up front. Anything that is low or buried in the mix can be really brought out through some compression. Especially vocals. I'd say it's an absolute must to have compression on...

Sounds pretty good I thought. Vocals could be a bit brighter (add some air in the 3-5k range, very slight)

Just listened to "Emotional debt". The thing that jumped out at me was lack of stereo image. You should try doubling that electric guitar and panning them to the left and ride side. The beat sounds obviously fake, which works well for this genre, maybe a tad bit over compressed for my tastes...

This song is going to be on my upcoming album, recorded it all myself as well as (mixed and mastered) to the best of ability. Thoughts? I swear I'll return the advice favor and help anyone who is a pure beginner, as I've been doing this for a few years now. I appreciate the feedback!

Recorded this with Boss BR 1600CD and then mixed and did some DIY mastering in Reaper: Thoughts? The biggest challenge was getting it to be louder obviously. https://soundcloud.com/brandonbroderick/honey

Thanks everyone for all the feedback. Much appreciated. I'm going to add some reverb to the vox for sure . And yeah there's going to be background harmonies..haven't recorded them yet. Also, I was also worried about the hook/dynamics. I was thinking of maybe bringing in different instruments to...

Thanks and you're right it is an SM58 ha, nice observation. I wasn't sure how much reverb to add because I don't want to muddy things up too much, but I guess it could use a little.

Hey so I recorded my band outside on our gig on Sunday, let me know what you think of the mix. I used a BOSS BR-16 00 Digital HDD Recorder, only 2 mics on the drums (overhead, kick). Rutgers Unite Marathon (04.17.11) | Cotton

It's also showing data on track 8, but nothing is playing from it...the light is blinking green and orange (so there's data) but no levels when the fader is up. I even tried exporting that track to the comp, but it still plays nothing. Wtf.

Yea, I went into V-Track and it's not even showing any data on track 1, even though i swear there was recording on it.

Hey, so I recorded my band's gig over the weekend, got all the levels good. I was recording all 8 tracks at the same time (multi-track). When I booted it up at home, the recording was all there except for Track 1..it just dissapeared, and there is no light flashing there either, (every other...
