Listening on earbuds... The new version sounds wider, more compressed, and a bit bottom-heavy. I listened to the old one till about half-way through. I then listened to the new one, and immediately thought, "Wow, this sounds really compressed and boomy". I continued listening until about the...

Not bad. The drums sound a little thin, but definitely feels like it could turn into something pretty good. The guitars sound quite grungy, instead of hardcore, and at first I didn't like it, but by the middle of the song, they grew on me. They're defintely different, but for this genre (if...

Yo, Joey! So good to hear something from ya again, man. So, I listened to the first-half on mix 1, and the 2nd half on mix 2. Gotta say, that the 2nd mix sounds superb, man. On the first mix, I had a really hard time hearing the vocals over the bass and that swooshing sound from the piano...

Almost immediately while listening to it, I'm noticing a very closed / narrow sound to it. Very clean, almost too clean for this song, IMO. Hmm.... Man, I wanna be head-banging to this, but something in the mix is hold me back. It's almost as if I'm watching this insane band perform in the...

Thanks for the listen, and comments, Trip! This is the first time I've produced music like this, so all this info is quite helpful. Evidently, this band is planning on coming back in to record more, and when they do, I'll make sure the drummer's kit sounds acceptable before I record it. Can't...

Yeah, it's kind of surreal for me to look at those pics of the hole, and look around at what it has become now. Thanks for the listen, Pete! Another vote for click. Gotta do something about that. Thanks for listening and commenting Greg! Thanks! Definitely addressing click now. Thanks...

Thanks, Keith! Man, it's been forever since I've posted anything here. Thanks for the listen, dude. Thanks Sam! Thanks, Jeffro. I agree, the low-end on this song is a bit of a mess. It's mostly (if not all) the drums. When these guys come in to do another song, I'm gonna have to address...

Wow, dude... Sounds amazing, as always. Your cymbals don't sound washy at all now... Have you done anything to your treatment and / or kit to help that? They sound crisp, albeit a bit back in the mix, but definitely not washy. The thing that impressed me most about this is your songwriting...

So... I've spent the last 3 months building a new studio, which I'm now struggling to tune. So far, I've got two finished recordings, one of which I can post here. This isn't really music I listen to, but I can definitely appreciate it. Anyway, the tracked drums were very flat-sounding, and...

Wow, man. Sounds fantastic. I just tracked a group that sounds similar, and you've given me a lot of mix ideas with this. Thanks! (Sounds awesome!)

Yup. Kick is way over compressed, and loud. Guitars are fizzy and thin (and way too low in the mix, IMO), vocals are underprocessed for this type of music, too (again personal preference). Thanks for sharing, dude.

I was listening to Coheed and Cambria before I pulled up your song, and I've gotta say, this holds its own, man. Great sounding full guitars, and your drum kit sounds good, too (albeit a bit low in the mix, but not by much). What reverb are you putting on it? I like the dry-ish, but not too...

Just making a few notes as I listen. So, here goes. Piano sounds a bit too loud, in contrast to the percussion. Either bring up the percussion, or lower the piano. I'd recommend bringing the percussion up, as it seems the piano is on a good level with the rest of the instruments. Reverb on...

Dude.... I love this - especially the chorus. Lyrics, harmonies, chord progression, it all sounds awesome. As far as the mix goes, it sounds like there might be some mid-freq build-up during the choruses, too, when everyone is harmonizing. There's also some weird stuff that I can't put my...

Wow, man. Sound great. I think the snare sounds fine. I think the overheads are a bit loud, but not by much. Your playing is so tight. Love it. Everything pretty much rocks hard. Good stuff - again.

Yo... I wouldn't compress the drums anymore. I think ya just need to raise the volume on em' a bit. They're not as prominent as they should be, IMO, for a rock song. To be honest, I think this song needs a few driving distorted guitars... They would compliment the song a lot in places. I'd...

Listened to half of the first recording, and am now listening to the 2nd recording, and 10 seconds into it, I can say the 2nd mix is worlds better, mostly because you took Chili's advice and double-tracked the guitars. Gives recordings a lot of depth and personality. Yeah, the 2nd mix gels a...

side-stick hitting seems a bit buried at the beginning... Hmmm.... About 1:30 into the song right now, and it seems there is some weirdness going on with spatiality. I think it may be that the drums are pretty in-your-face, while the rest of everything has a thick layer of reverb on it...

Singer is great. Snare accents to the side are way, way too loud. Piano is too low, and bass is crazy loud. Great material, just lots of mix issues.

Yeah, dude. Sounds great. Vocals are present and intelligible, drums and bass sound great and fit the style, extra sounds / acoustic guitars are mixed as accents, as they should be, I believe, for this type of music. Caught myself bobbing my head up and down multiple times while listening...
