SO I kinda want a The Smiths I Know It's Over vibe with this. I don't really have much time to retrack things so this is mostly it.
- I feel liek the final mixdown is much quieter than my other stuff i've put out, even after my unskilled "mastering".
Would lowering the boominess of the bass give me more headroom to push the volume up without clipping? I've also seen stuff about limiters, that may help?
A couple other problems are:
- Intro/chorus could sound a little bigger relative to the rest of the song, but not TOO much. I have a couple of the guitar tracks come up there a little.
- Harmonies, I like the parts but it's hard to get them to sit right. I have the low part on the left and high on the right, and wonder if both whould be on both sides, kinda more even? just want kind of an oldies Shangri-Las vibe with them i think. i LOVE the harmonies on the chorus of Nick Cave's I Need You but I feel liek this much busier song can't really afford to have them so prominent.
Anyone got any tips that aren't just scrapping and redoing the whole thing? lol.
