Mix Challenge

Dear colleagues and Mister Fox, Thank you for your support!!! I was in the hospital for 15 days because I had a heart attack and had to have 3 bypasses. Fortunately, I am now at home recovering. I look forward to hearing your new work. Good luck to everyone. Oh crikey, Esteve, that's awful but I'm ...

Just a quick post to say thank you very much to everyone for submitting your mixes. 91 submissions is amazing, I really didn't expect we'd have so many! My intention is to give feedback to everyone. I'm currently about two thirds of the way through the entries and will be working through the rest in...

With regards to your Genelec setup, man, I would definitely test the GLM to see if the speaker response could be improved slightly. I've used Sonarworks for speakers in the past with OK results, but I would trust the GLM calibration more (yes I know, room treatment first, but when you're unable to ...

Can I ask how you are going to ensure loudness match during evaluation, which tool and process for that, and if your speaker response in the room is tolerable, good, bad, unknown? Perhaps you will be using headphones also? I'm just curious, don't worry :phones: No particular tools or process for lo...

Yes, I wanted to comment on that. To my ears, it's pretty impressive for a Synth to create those vocals. Does it take a lot of work by you to get that result? You know, pre-setup, editing, post-stuff? Overall, your song is great. All your performances are well placed, well played, and everything fi...

... so I would appreciate it we could get more information on the chain used i.e. convertors when tracking the vocal /mic/compressor/mic-pre. You might not have read all of the text in the provided mix pack - it details that the vocals were programmed using Synthesizer V (IE: it's a computer singin...

ChatGPT is a nice tool, however it’s not completely deterministic, I asked a similar question that you did (because I didn’t agree) and got a completely different result 🙂 Every kid that grew up in the 80s (like me) started out listening to music on a mono cassette deck with FM-radio, and the music...

Thanks everyone for updating your posts with monitoring details! Hi all, this is my attempt to mix: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/91oxbj1mu7ytnwni547ng/MC104__BenjiRage__AboveTheClouds__VasDim.wav?rlkey=3ok2h2x1qly39dl2lwc1cw3tj&st=lb77k0cw&dl=0... For all track are used: - Waves Q10;... Va...

It's an incredibly good production. I will do my best. The things I have on my mind are: how do you find clarity when the genre demands clouds? How do you make a computer sound like it cares? The provided mix is amazing, should we deviate much from there or try to emulate it? One thing is for sure,...

Thank you everyone who has submitted a mix so far, I'm truly amazed at how varied they sound, each one is unique! For those who haven't included it, and as Mister Fox kindly reminded previously, we would be grateful if you could edit your posts to add information about your listening environment, mo...
