Hello everybody!
I just published my first song!!
This was also the first time that I recorded, mixed and "mastered" (It's the part i know less), so be kind ahah
(I know it was stupid, i should have posted here before publish it, in order to fix some stuff, but i was too much excited lol).

- Voice was recorded with a AKG220 plugged into a Roland UA-25EX
- Guitar and bass were recorded as a naked track, creating the sounds with amp/impulses simulation
- Piano, strings and organ: i played a master keyboard, assigning some VST
- Drums: recorded with a digital drums, using Superior Drummer as VST

Anyway, you can listen to the song here Fade to Rain - Betrayed - YouTube


I spent much time in the mix...about the mastering, I started from some presets of iZotope Ozone and then just made it sounds good to my hears...of course i will study more about this!
And I didn't use monitors (cause i still don't own them).

I'd just like your opinion about the mix, so I can understand what I can improve in the future! :)

Thank you very much,
Alessandro
 
Mix is not bad but the kicks sound a bit to loud IMO and the mix seems to lack bottom end. Since the kicks are so clicky you need to compensate for that in the bass.
 
Sounds good, but I'd quantize the beginning piano part. I noticed parts that were dragging. The guitars and bass sound good.

ok thanks! i'll keep that in mind! Someone told me i needed to compress the voice more, do u guys agree? :=

I actually played in that way on purpose to give it more sentimento :P maybe wrong idea

thanks!
