    Mix Feedback Please

    Hi All, It's been awhile since I've been on the forum, and I hate to ask for mix feedback when I haven't been active lately, but I'm hoping you'll forgive that and still help :) I've been working with an artist in my home studio, which is a first for me, and we're completing the last couple of...

    "Heavy" Final Mix? - Hoping You Will Give It One More Listen!

    Hi All, I received great feedback from you guys on the initial mixes of my trio's song "Heavy" a few weeks ago. Since then, I had my bass player finally come over and record the real BGVs (previously they were placeholders that I sang), and I also updated the mix a little bit to bring up the...

    First New Post In A Long While - How's This Sounding So Far?

    Hi All, This is a new track I just recorded with my trio in a live format using real, honest-to-goodness mic'd guitar and bass amps and drums (everything I've previously done has been using software sims). I would appreciate any feedback on the mix, as I'm at the point where I'm too close to...

    And Now For Something Completely Different...

    Hi All, It's been awhile since I posted in the clinic. I haven't written much since I finished up my CD last year (a self-imposed break!), but recently I've started playing around with some instrumentals in various styles. I've posted a couple up on Soundclick, and I'd welcome any feedback...

    My Website is Live!

    Hi All, I have an album pending release, so I figured I should create a website to have some kind of starting point for people that are interested in my music (if there are any...ha ha). I used weebly, which is definitely limited, but other than the domain registration fee (which seemed high...

    Tips for Strings?

    Hey All, Does anyone have any super cool secret tips and tricks for recording keyboard-generated string parts that sound really nice? I'm not necessarily talking about particular samples or patches that are preferred, but more about techniques. For example, I read somewhere on this forum at...

    I think I'm getting better at this...how's this mix?

    Hello All, It's been awhile since I posted a new tune, but I just finished one last night that I think turned out pretty well, and I'm hoping to get feedback. It's called "Last Straw", and you can find it here: SoundClick artist: Dave DeWhitt - page with MP3 music downloads Lyrics are on the...

    Preparing for Mastering - General Guidelines?

    Hi All, I apologize if this topic has already been covered here, but I've skimmed through the threads and didn't see anything that directly answered some of my questions, so I figured I'd start a new one. Mainly, I'm just trying to figure out if there are any mixing guidelines that are helpful...

    Rode NT1000 Mic

    Hey All, I have a gently used Rode NT1000 microphone that I'm going to be selling - I was about to put it up on eBay, but then figured maybe I'd throw it up here and give the good people at HR.com first dibs :D Pic is below... It comes with the soft case and mic clip. I'm thinking $230 USD...

    "Falling Right In" - New Drums - How's The Mix Compare?

    Hi All, Been absent from the forum for a bit, but still working on recordings. I just recently went back and rerecorded the drum tracks for a song called "Falling Right In" that I posted here about a year ago. The original posted version had software drums. This new version was recorded with...

    Old Song, New Drums, New Guitars - How's This Mix?

    Hi All, I'm hoping you'll lend me your golden ears again and let me know if I'm on the right track with this mix. This is a song called "Don't Come Around". I wrote and recorded it about a year and a half ago, but the original mix is programmed drums and the whole thing sounds pretty bad...

    Does Anyone Else Do This With Vocals?

    This might fall into the category of Captain Obvious, but maybe not, so I have to ask... Lately, I've been "manually compressing" my vocal tracks by going into the editor in Logic and increasing the gain on soft parts and reducing the gain on loud parts. I'm not talking about riding the fader...

    New Song - Mix Help Please

    Hi All, I just posted a new song to my Soundclick page called "What I Know Now" and I'm hoping to get some mix feedback. This song is just a fun, rocking, cheesy tune, and I had fun writing it and coming up with the parts, but the mix was difficult for me, because I ended up with almost 60...
