Very clean mix with lots of space for the lead vocal. The backing tracks do their job without a lot of fuss or without calling attention to themselves. The kick and snare sound quite compressed, a little much for my taste. There's something a bit odd about the lead vocal treatment that I...

Jimmy, that's awesome. I will most definitely take up your offer. I should have the mix nailed down in the next few days. Anybody else want to take a shot at mastering it?

I'd be interested to hear your take on mastering the song. I'm very new to it. There's no slapback. I have sorted out quite a few phase and alignment issues, as I mentioned. Could be you're hearing more of those. I bought a bunch of Waves plugins lately, so I've been trying them out...

Awesome, thanks! I'll give a listen. The double is at the same level as the lead. I had taken it down a few dBs in an earlier mix but it's back up now. I did low pass the double at about 5k. If you are interested in trying your hand at a master, definitely. You can try to other ones too...

New mix in the OP. Better balance of lead and harmony vox. Major work to the drum bus. Thanks for the comments. Hope there will be more.

In that line, listen to the word "question." Hear how there are three distinct notes on a two-syllable word? So the "que" gets the extra note. So it sounds like: qwe-eh-stion. To my ears it is awkward. There are many similar examples. Actually, in that example you could probably just...

Hi Skyline. Good to see new people posting AND commenting on songs at the Clinic! Reciprocity is what makes the forum work. It's a good idea edit your OP when you post a new mix, so that the latest mix is always at the top of the thread. The backing tracks sound good to me. I thought the...

New collaboration. Johnny sang all the vocals. Amazing arrangement of the harmony vox! Dave did the drums. I wrote the song and played everything else. Great work guys! All comments welcome. Priority is the vocal mix. Thanks! Latest mix: MASTER_Pen Penny Pen_2018_Master 8.mp3 - Google...

I haven't been able to find ANY MIDI keyboard with weighted keys. Can anyone recommend one?

How are you liking the Rode mic, Cool?

Sounds good. Your drumming is getting better. I hear a little lurch in the timing in a couple of places. I would just edit if it were me. Good playing as always. Is that your Strat and your Peavey?

Got to post a link. Nobody can imagine what you are hearing. Do you have the mic on the V30s? Try moving them to the other speaker. Spend some time working with your mic positioning.

This sounds pretty good to me. I'm not hearing a lot of separation in the backing tracks--the bass is what I hear the most. But it's a vocal mix, so I think it works.

Wow, that sounds spot on. Great playing. Does your drummer have the chops, or will you program? It sounded too much on the FX for listening solo. Maybe it all comes together in the mix.

Oh, that sucks. Yeah, get your money back. There's a better one out there. ART rocks. My input chain for the past 4 years has been an ART Pro MPA II preamp into a Pro VLA II compressor/leveler. Best $500 I ever spent.

Jimistone, with all respect, it's not a Tone Thread anymore. It's 1350 pages of dead links and banter between people who mostly don't post on this forum anymore (with occasional shit-stirring by Miro). The last thing those posters did before they decamped from this forum was vandalize this...

Wow, I hope you get it working right. I'd love to hear a sample. This is the current Tone Thread: https://homerecording.com/bbs/equipment-forums/guitars-and-basses/guitar-tone-mix-thread-394377/12/?highlight=Tone+in+mix

Sounds cool Cat. Thick neck's where it's at for a Tele. You can find used Mexicans for less money. Another couple of hundred would get you a used American Standard.

Hey Johnny, I'd like to comment on your tones, but I consider this particular thread retired. It belongs to a group of posters who left the forum. Out of respect for those people, I prefer to leave their thread as they left it. Here's the current version of the Tone Thread here. It could use...

You're free to do it. Others are free to comment or not. But I'm pointing out that the premise of the MP3Clinic is reciprocity. You're an experienced recorder. If you could take a few minutes to listen and comment just once in a while, it would add value to the site. Please consider it.
