Awesome guys, thanks for all the help!!
ido- thanks for the complements on the open feeling. As most ppl, I've now gone past the "squash" phase on my mixes and now use very little on the main bus. Just a little brickwall limiter with very little just for a couple peaks in the song.
I do agree with you other commets, I'll do a little more tweaking.
bubba - Yea, I went bass crazy with that last mix. When I backed down the vocals and brought up the drums, that made the bass too quiet so I guess I over compensated. Thanks for the complements on my singing, I'm still working hard at it so I still don't have much confidence.
zed - read above on bass. Yea on the vocals, I purposefully low passed at about 11.5k as I'm not very good at pronuciation while singing.
I hear less of my mistakes when I do this.
Also, yea the bse/low bass got outta whack on me. Thanks for listening!!!
XLR - I'm glad you liked that part. Its also the part my kids like and sing around the house.
I just wish I could sing it without sounding like a pussy!!
THanks for the comments!
Snakedog - Yea the bass.. I'll fix er up.
Thanks on my singing!! Yea, originally that mid section was supposed to be acoustic hard left, but I forgot to mute the right side during that part. I actually need to redo the acoustic because there is a wrong note in that section, and the timing got effed during the last chorus. I'm glad you liked the playing!!
Thanks again guys for taking the time!!
