Hello. I posted this into wrong places, but check out my mix. :)

[spaymikko]

I made this with Pc, 350mHz, 256ram. Echo Layla 8 i/o-card. It doesn´t sound pro, but it sounds almost good to me. It´s different, pretty weird mix.

There are a few more songs on that site too, but they´re older ones. Same setup with them, only less mix time used.

I fiddled around many weeks with this one... That´s what it is when you´re not a pro.

I play the guitars, bass and synth. (Listen for the full symphony orchestra in the last chorus. It´s there, believe me. )

I used Shure b52 for kick drum, sm57 for snare, and some lower series tom mics, they were B.G or something, and B.G 4.1 overheads. Rode NTV for vocals.


I had a lots of adjusting time when I made this. There are few things I´d like to point out... But maybe next time.


Oh, with this song, I really notice the bad effects the mp3-encoding has since I´ve listened this so much in the original shape, multitrack version while mixing. Mp3 makes the annoying watery sound on hi hat, and dulls out the bass and snare drum attack... Who cares... Next time, I swear I´ll use at least 192kbps coding, no matter if it makes the file a lot bigger.

Wow this is really nice. I like the vocal line a lot...very grungy. You did a good job of getting the vocals nice & upfront. I'm kind of over the whole vocoder thing though, I'm glad you didn't use it throughout.

The drums are almost over controlled but I think you did a good job on them for sure. The guitars are definately there, and the bass comes through pretty well.

Good job!

I really overshoot the toms, so that the come through the mix... Examples of this sound: (listen with headphones)

http://koti.mbnet.fi/~fisq/mp3/Rummut.mp3- Few seconds of Farewell-drums alone.

- Same place with a full mix. (Notice the Cher-effect in the end And it´s only there, not anywhere else in the song. )

- Intro from another song. This tom sound is just an effect for the intro, not everywhere in the song. Backwards cymbal, backwards reverb with a flanger in the first phrase of the vocals... (oh dear, how much tweaking everywhere... ) I like that big reverb on the toms and snare...
