    Mud and panning check

    Here's another song where I believe I've gotten the mix probably 90% there, but I just need a sanity check to make sure the weight of the panned instruments is not too heavy to one side or the other and there's not too much mud. I opted to do some hard panning on this to make room for...

    Need some feedback on the balance of this mix

    Thank you all for taking the time to listen. I really appreciate it. I often struggle with arrangements now that we essentially have unlimited possibilities and time so even if they're artificial, I do like to place some restrictions on myself. So I think for me the time has passed to make any...

    Need some feedback on the balance of this mix

    Really need some help here and as many ears on this as possible. This is just an acoustic guitar and vocals so I can't really hide behind any mixing tricks. It was a case of using the demo for the final song because I could never recapture the original performance of this demo. It was sung into...

    "The Cull Will Not Be Live Streamed"

    Very chill until the demented part haha - it's fun though. The singing on the first "sheeple" part seems to be a bit out of time, but you could just slide them around a little to see if it sits in the pocket better. I think the vocal sits a bit too up front on the jazzy parts, but that's...

    Manslick - The Bullet's Gash

    Nice song and good performance. It's fun. There seems to be a lot of higher end to this. You could boost the bass to fill it out more or maybe change the high pass filter on the piano and kick. I'd also suggest layering a snare on top of the snare sound on this and possibly de-essing the hi-hat...

    Shawn Colvin cover - "Shotgun Down the Avalanche"

    Great space in the recording and great performances. Very tasteful. Feels ever-so-slightly slightly heavier panned to the right. That's the only note I have.

    Thunderbird

    This is a well-balanced mix. If I'm being super picky I hear a couple small, almost unnoticeable spots where it feels like the drums slowed down or fell out of the pocket ever so slightly. The guitars also sound a little more up front like they don't have the same space around them as the drums...

    "Sweet Marguerita" by "Who We Are"

    Sounds a lot fuller and well balanced! This kind of song would definitely go over well in my neck of the woods, especially live.

    "Sweet Marguerita" by "Who We Are"

    Nice space in this. Good verbs and delays. Pretty vocal and vocal harmonies. Vocals are a bit loud compared with the backing tracks. I think the bass could come up a little or maybe just boost the top end a bit - you could also send it to a bus and pitch shift it up an octave, but keep the bus...

    how does it sound ?

    That bass drop at the beginning is great. This could be in a film. If I'm nitpicking - I think the cymbals could have some more space or some reverb, maybe a little more air on the top end. It's gimmicky, but I wonder how they would sound reversed, then add reverb, then reverse again so there's...

    Separate Ways cover, first mix on a new setup

    I forgot about this song. It's fun. I think you did a good job tracking it. The original has a little more "space" around it. I think you could experiment with some reverbs here. Out of curiosity I'd be interested to hear this with a more modern approach to the mix as if it were a recent pop...

    I Don’t Want Your Number

    The vocals are a little loud on this in comparison with the backing track. I would try to line them up a little bit more with the beat. Timing and locking everything in with the beat is going to be crucial. I'd also experiment with a few different reverb effects on the vocals and the backing...

    Electric Blue - Artificial

    I like how the piano becomes brighter and more clear after the intro - nice build up. The robot voice is fun, but a little harsh on the top end. I think a de-esser would tame it. The overall balance feels good and it's got great dynamics. I don't know why, but if I were mixing I'd want to try...

    We're getting the band back together

    My ears are fatigued and I greatly need your objectivity. After 5 years my old band decided to get back together (virtually) for a loosely quarantine-inspired song. We had to record our parts separately and at home so I had to do some clever editing to get the quality up. Here's the latest mix...

    I'd appreciate any arrangement suggestions on this acoustic-based song

    Well I took all of the criticism into consideration and tried a few different approaches to fixing things while trying to maintain my original vision and intent. I hired a cellist and an organ player and remixed the guitars, vocals and piano. This is the result...

    I'd appreciate any arrangement suggestions on this acoustic-based song

    Been a while since I posted. This is sparse and simple. A little EQ, a little compression, a doubled acoustic guitar panned left and right 75%, a piano, a vocal (with one little effect). I may shorten the song and put the piano solo right after the chorus instead of the repeated guitar theme and...

    instrumental thing

    I actually like the autoharp rhythm - it adds a nice texture. I think the guitar sounds awesome too. I do agree it needs more kick. You could even turn up the hi hat a touch. I think the bass might benefit from a little more clarity on this song, whether it's achieved with volume, EQ, distortion...

    Alright, back to the rock opera. New orignal "Wrath"

    You should use Paul McCartney's "Temporary Secretary" as a reference track. YouTube

    How's this mix? Now with vocals!

    Very clean, very tasteful. You could turn up everything on the chorus to make it hit harder.

    cover of a classic: Bad Moon Rising - it's different

    This is dope. Maybe the original is influencing me, but I'd almost like to hear more reverb or delay on the vocal and the solo guitar lines.
