Mix Challenge

Hey guys,

unfortunately I can’t participate in Round 2 because I’m out of town. But thanks for the great feedback! I would have had some cool ideas for a little more bang in the chorus sections.

Good luck for Round 2 everyone!

Hey! For me this was all about the vocal. It should be the center of the universe, every word and emotion should be heard, the rest follows. I manually (and automatically) de-essed (yikes) the lead and manually "time-alinged" the double (yikes again). I tried to find a spot for the instrum...

Hey, thanks for the feedback and again for the great, great song! I added some automation to bring the drums a tad down where needed. The drones came up a little bit. I added a delay to lead vox and some very subtle parallel SSL style compression to the mixbus (1.5:1, only 30% wet), to add a teeny t...

Wow! This is easily one of my favorite challenges! The recording is superb, maybe the best we ever had here! I love the song for its vibe and honestly didn't look at the translation or a reference other than the original mix. I hate to sound like a cliché 80s guy, but the whole time I had Conan in m...

Hi, here's my revised mix: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aZQ3qySGSM1q2eZ__zMFiixyYFmo0WhM/view?usp=sharing When I came back to the first mix, I felt that there was a congestion in the high midrange. I tweaked the mixbus and gave the piano a little more dimension to seperate it better from that co...

Hi, here's my take on it. WAV: https://drive.google.com/file/d/11q_GAl9-WSgLLnk0gGDl_QrPfEVlfW7u/view?usp=sharing I kept it pretty simple with the goal not to overprocess and especially not to drown it in verb. I am leaning more towards underprocessing to not destroy the fragile nature, I think the ...

Hey all, unfortunately last week's been hell and I couldn't make it in time. White Punk OD thanks for your input on my mix. The muffled sound was actually a low pass sweep. Could be better I guess... Los_ady thanks a lot for your feedback and especially the track, had some fun with it! And you're ri...

@Los_ady

Not contesting anything here, but just wondering: why is my mix not even in the feedback spreadsheet?

Same for me, can’t find my name in the spreadsheet. Some feedback here or via PM would be cool.

Hey, long time no see, but I couldn't let this one fly! Very cool song! The challenge was to make it HipHop but still keep an organic "Band" vibe. Rap/Vocals in your face, Instruments shouldn't sound too "fake", and since it's HipHop there has to be some junk in the trunk. Go to ...

Hi, I think one could go on forever with a song like this, but this is what I could come up with in time: WAV: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nB4Q41auXwocW097jQSg9Kw9So-Lpys5/view?usp=sharing MP3: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1x3BHGOGlXmr_u8cGqejdP6_FbNu-OHau/view?usp=sharing As you all know fo...
