Awesome, thanks. That might be the first time anyone has ever said my voice has a pleasing tone! Haha!

Ok, so I dug in a little more this evening. I EQ’d the snare to get a little more crack. I had to compensate by pulling some of the upper mid frequencies out of the overheads to keep the cymbals from getting too harsh. I also backed off a little on the snare compression. I think it helped a lot...

The ADk is an amazing mic, this is not a great example of what it does! I started with the unidyne but it’s was a little too harsh for this particular tune I think likely because I was run out through a Joe Meek with too much of the “enhance” dialed in, and you can’t get that out! The ADk was...

I actually use a really nice $3500 tube condenser mic (ADK Z67). My favorite producer uses it all the time and I love his recordings. Funny thing is it’s a very upper mid-forward mic with a ton of detail. I promise you the problem is my singing and processing! I cut a lot of the high end and...

Haha! I just went back to edit my comment to back off a bit. I was trying for a fat snare sound because it’s a slower song. I still want to play w it a little…likely just boost the volume on the snare when the heavy guitars come in…but I don’t want to go crazy. Thanks!

Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment. Since I posted this original mix I’ve been reading a lot about vocal mixing and came across the idea of mixing at different volumes. I mixed quieter and that’s how I went got to mix 3. I grew with the “rawness” of mix 1, maybe I can keep the...

Awesome, thanks for the feedback. Good call about the snare. I too would like a snappier snare! It’s always a battle between a snappy snare and ugly cymbal/hat bleed in the snare mic. I need to stop being such a purist and blend in a replaced snare with the recorded snare. It really doesn’t...

Ahh, nice! But what is Shoegaze?! :LOL:

A little more tweaking, mostly trying to level out volumes between sections. The back half of the song is louder than the front half, mainly from all those heavy guitars…not sure if that’s something I should tame a bit as well? Mix 3

Thanks!

I tried to even out the vocal levels and take a little of the vocal’s harshness out. I also added some verb onto the tails of those held out vocal notes at the ends of several phrases. Also made it so you can hear the boom of the floor Tom a little better.

Thanks!

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!

Yeah, fly fishing and music are my passions! When the rivers are blown out or the weather is miserable/windy I’ll be in my home studio writing/recording music!

I wrote and recorded this yesterday. I was messing around with EADABE tuning. I stumbled on it when I was messing around with some chords rooted on the A string. Turns out I didn’t invent it and out lots of people have used it (of course). Super fun, give it a try! A little slower than most of...

I thought I was listening to Huey Lewis and the News, lol! Sounded good though!

I liked it. The vocals are really well produced and the backups are great. I really liked the break with the clean guitars and harmonies after the guitar solo. I think the guitar solo should be a little louder (maybe a dB or 2)?. It was a little buried under the drums. That’s all that jumped...

Great tune. Acoustic tone/recording is superb. Only thing that jumped out to me is that the vocals really jump out at parts (uneven volume). Especially the “WOULD have been” and “SHOULD have been” lines. I think more compression on the vocals could really even things out. I think it’s the...

This was great! Song sounded well mixed and it was a sincere delivery…fun stuff!

Enjoyed this, well done and no issues that perceived on AirPods.
