What does 波動 mean in English?

Mix sounds good man. A lot heavier and more modern than stuff I hear outside of the radio occasionally here and there. I thought the guitars sounded great. Full and growling nicely. At times it seemed to me that the vocals sat on top of the mix a little too much and I would have preferred they sit back just a little, but the whole 2nd half of the song where there's more effects on the vocals I thought it worked better. Drums seemed a bit small maybe compared to those big guitars? I dunno, I'm kinda grasping here.

Just wanted to say basically I think it sounds good. :)
 
thanx guys !
to heatmiser : ok, I'll adjust the drums and vocal again...and the phrase means "wave", but the song is about the up and down of your life when you are pursuing your dreams...
 
A touch of Tool with some extra tempo and a Cobain influenced vocalist.
The bass drum seems a little low in relation to the snare when the band is cranking.
Good mix.
Pretty good song though the drums feel a little programmed.
 
Drums definitely sound mechanical, a little more velocity variation would help. Mix sounds a bit crushed, but i guess everything these days does. Vocals are nice sounding...but your singer needs to enunciate a little more...i couldn't understand a single word he said! Overall pretty solid mang.
 
ok, thanx guys !
the drums......yeah....at first, we wanna record it live using roland v-drums triggering VST, but then we find out that the v-drums pad is not sensitive enough. So we end up just input the midi in DAW......and yeah, we should edit the velocity detail....hmmm....
about the vocal, so you mean even if you know mandarin you still can't understand the word he's singing ?
 
That was a joke about not being able to understand the lyrics, i don't speak mandarin...although i am married to an asian. The drums are what is killing this. If you need any help with the variation, velocity thing i would be glad to help...if you need a drum track redone i could do that as well...keeping the original played exactly the same...but with more dynamics of course. V-drums into a VST such as Superior Drummer, or Steven Slate should be nearly as dynamic as a real drum performance. My guess is that your settings within the Roland are to blame. E-Drums these days coupled with nice instruments translates to a very wide dynamic range, and professional drum sound. Check your settings in the roland first. Just let me know if you need anything.
 
ok, thanx alot ! I will try to edit it myself.....take it as a training...hahaha
 
I have to agree with the others that the drums sound a little thin and sit too far back in the mix (I havethis problem alot when using programmed drums). Very cool song though, and a good performance. I like this alot.
