Sounds Good

Sounds good- And yes that "Goodbye like AOL" sh*t is funny and clever..I like it.

I think the vox could come back down a bit it's just a bit too in your face and the music\samples are just way in the back.

I would also like to feel the drums a bit more...I am not talking old school TR-808 but you know a little more ummphhh!

Overall though nice quality.

So I should bring down the vocal levels, and up the beat levels? But other than that, everything is fine... Reverb, Compression, Equalization, etc.?

 

[Aakburns]

Bring up those drums a bit. Should be able to hear that bass thump louder.

 

[lowlow42]

Ok, I've edited it a little, its still the same link as before. I thought it sounded like too much Reverb, so I took some off, and I also brought up the beat, and lowered the vocals a little.

As for the beat, I didn't make it, so I can't do much to it...

Tell me if this one is alright...

Sample

 

[scrubs]

Where's the bass? I'm cranking my sub and can barely feel it. That shit should shake the walls! The "glass-breaking" sound is a little too much. I would be more selective with that. Otherwise, nice work.

 

[lowlow42]

Yeah, I did NOT make the beat, so I have no control over that... But my main focus was on the placement of the vocals, and how they fit in to the mix. Obviously they were fine, the only problem is that the instrumental/beat needs to be tweeked, which again I will not be able to do.... Thanks everyone for critiquing my sample!!!!
