I have two versions of this song rough mixed. One is acoustic guitar, bass, clean electric lead and vocals. The other is all instruments with a dirtier guitar lead. Let me know which one you like better.

The one with all instruments is my first recording with my new Yamaha Electric Drum set. I know the drum part is not that great but I'm not a drummer. I'm a guitar player and wanted to record everything. This is also the first time I recorded a keyboard part also. This is not the final mix. I am looking for criticism on what effects I should use or remove and how you think the mix is as far as volumes of each part or any other helpful criticism I could get would be great.

Oh, this is also the first time my wife sang backup for me. She is so cool :-).

So I am playing all instruments and vocals with the exception of my wife doing some backup.

Any advice welcome.

Link is in my next post

Thanks for listening

Paul

Vox

im listening to the full instrument version. Everything sounds good except all the reverb on your vox. it doesnt fit with the mix. it sounds like you are in an empty bathroom but all the other instruments are not. id say just lighten up on the reverb or try a different kind. otherwise, I like it.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm playing with adding effects to the whole mix and a lot of different things.

This song is tough because if I try to go more "Floyd" with it, I need a lot of effects. If I just try and make a clean song, not so much effects. So, I'm still playing with it. I'm not sure which direction I'll go with the final mix.

Thanks for listening.
